Silver Linings Playbook: Movie Review


I was able to watch a new movie, again, on its first week being shown in Philippine cinemas.  The movie title is Silver Linings Playbook, which we choose to watch since Jennifer Lawrence (the Best Actress winner in the recent Oscars) was in it.

All I can say at this point, is don't expect it to be like a blockbuster movie, since you will be in for a big disappointment.  I have watch most of Bradley Cooper's, the leading man, movies and most of them are just good movies and not blockbusters (Except for the Hangover movies).

How was the visuals?

The visuals was good. Nothing special, the usual you would expect from a drama.  It's not bad, it shows an american community as it usually is in reality.  None of those over the top clean, big and grand buildings.


How was the story?

Story was very good, not your typical romance, drama.  There is a nice feeling after the movie, since almost all romantic films do have a happy ending.  Story has originality, but nearing the end it the usual formula of guy chasing the girl and happy ending.


How was it overall?

I give this film a 3 out of 5 stars, for the reason the film was kind of boring in the beginning, and took a lot of time to gain some steam and somehow looked like a copy of any other romantic film in the end.
