“Silver Linings Playbook” is a dull and mundane romantic comedy from director-screenwriter David O. Russell (“Three Kings” 1999). He adapted the material from the 2008 novel of the same name by Matthew Quick, which is basically art house/chick flick stuff.
The actors delivered some good performances, at least. Jennifer Lawrence won the Oscar for Best Actress in the lead female role, the only win out of eight nominations. The supporting cast includes Bradley Cooper, Robert De Niro, Jacki Weaver, Anupam Kher, Chris Tucker, Julia Stiles, Shea Whigham, John Ortiz, Paul Herman, Phillip Chorba, and Dash Mihok, known for his role as Bunchy Donovan on the “Ray Donovan” television show (2013-2020).
“Silver Linings Playbook” was a success at the box office for The Weinstein Company.
