3. Silver Linings Playbook
I could potentially be putting in for some backlash here but Silver Linings Playbook just didn't impress me. I understand I'm going against the grain-what with most critics loving David O. Russell's take on the rom-com genre but I found the whole movie tedious and boring and totally predictable. I agree that Lawrence and Cooper give great performances but I just didn't enjoy it all, and I frankly didn't care about the characters. It wasn't a bad movie but most certainly didn't deserve the critical acclaim it received - some bits were funny but most of it felt all over the place. 75% of the movie consists of shouting and arguing and that to me is not entertaining. I felt like this movie was nothing special. Did I miss something?
