Silver Linings Playbook



I have heard great things about this movie from my friends and it's won a lot of awards, so I figured Silver Linings Playbook had to be good, right? Wrong. This movie is crazy boring and painfully slow going. Perhaps it is because it's billed as a comedy. There is very little comedy here, mostly drama and way too much of it. The only saving graces are two: Jennifer Lawrence is hot and the last 30 minutes. Within that last 30 minutes are what the movie could have been and clearly where it hit its stride. Yes, I know some movies do need to take time to build up, but this movie spent too long on it and as such, they had to end it quickly or risk running over time.
THIS MOVIEDOOD RATES IT: Bah.
