Silver Linings Playbook (2012)




After a stint in a mental institution, a former teacher moves back in with his parents and tries to reconcile with his ex-wife.

It is quite well played and has some funny one-liners, but the overall result is simply a slightly above-average romantic comedy.

Maltin***1/2: "Bracingly intimate, unpredictable family drama with comedic undertones features superb performances all around, with De Niro's finest wotk in years. Russell brilliantly orchestrates the movie's mood swings..."
