1/10
Another boring Bradley Cooper vehicle
30 January 2013
Warning: Spoilers
This movie is without doubt what is wrong with Hollywood's attempts to mix a 'popular' actor (err...Bradley Cooper) with comedy and trying to make a social statement.

As many other reviewers have said, there are absolutely no surprises in this film.

A 38 year old Cooper is in his usual ('I love myself, don't I look so handsome, but I realise I have flaws') mode. And Jennifer Lawrence - fresh out of playing a 16 year old in The Hunger Games is his love interest. No matter that it looks like there is a 20 year age difference.

Don't expect any twists when Cooper is trying to get back with his wife. You know he's gonna end up with Lawrence.

Mixed with all this is a story of mental illness. And comedy? If you find any, please tell me where it was. Because I found this whole movie irritating. I can only assume it gets its high rating from the ladies who are in love with Bradley.

He could make the remake of Plan Nine From Outer Space and I expect it would get an IMDb rating of about 8.5/10.

And that's about it. An utterly horrible experience. Unless you're desperately in love with Cooper, I see no sane reason why you should watch this bilge.

1/10.
