Silver Lining Playbook

Posted on March 8, 2013August 19, 2018 by Village Vidiot

March 8, 2013, DVD, home.  Yes, Jennifer Lawrence rocks as Tiffany and Bradley Cooper’s character. Pat starts well as the recently released, bi-polar dude off his meds but the rest of the film is less credible and it left me unsatisfied. The dark tension of the first hour evaporates into well done OCD tics from Robert DiNiro and comic crazies like the Indian Eagles fans (although I do like Chris Tucker, great to see him). I know why people liked the film; it is both tense and charming. The comic does its job. But please, the turnaround is too much and the ending, well, this is just too much
