Insider's Perspective: Silver Linings Playbook

Daring to go against the current, but here goes:

I [me, myself personally] wouldn't recommend Silver Linings Playbook. I thought the characters were 95% annoying, only 80% believable, and I was stressed 99% of the time; right up to the end. Maybe it's that for me, the subject matter is too familiar, and so even though they tried to make light of what it's like to live with someone who struggles with mental disorders, I don't want to re-live or laugh about that part of my life. Ever.

That's not to say it's a bad movie, (though I think it was not oscar-worthy,) or that the performances weren't good, I just wouldn't recommend it and didn't love it.

My two cents, for whatever it's worth, to whomever.
