Silver linings playbook


David O. Russell brings us another great story to the big screen. With Jennifer Lawrence and Bradley Cooper bringing great performances which brings great character development and amazing chemistry. We come into Pat Solitano Jr (Bradley Cooper) angry and confuse life. We see his mom signing him out of a mental heath facility outside of Philadelphia for his anger issues mostly because he found his wife Nikki (Brea Bee) with another man. 

Tiffany Maxwell (Jennifer Lawrence) is a young widow and recovering sex addict who had just lost her job. You can really feel the chemistry building and growing after they came meeting after a deal that Tiffany will help Pat talk to nikki with letters if Pat dances with her at a dance competition. 
     
 It doesnt help that he's football obsessed dad and worried mother on he's back all the time but later on he agrees to the dance thinking if he does this competition he's wife will see he changed and she will take him back meanwhile Tiffany just wants the company of a good friend and to keep her sane. 

With all he's heartbreak and mental breakdowns which Tiffany makes him feels loved again.This film shows love, courage, humor, and happiness which it all blends into a silver lining. 

David O. Russell brings of the best romantic comedy since 500 days of summer. It has a great cast with great chemistry between all the characters. 
5/5
