It was an excellent movie. While I don't typically enjoy comedy-romance types of films, Cooper and Lawrence both do an excellent job with their characters. The movie was well directed, and smoothly flowed through being a drama, telling a story, having laughs, and the romantic ending. Furthermore, Cooper and Lawrence are both damn attractive to me :P
The only real criticism I would have about the film is that they portray the characters being a little bit over the top, but then again, I enjoyed it so much because I've been in their shoes before. It's not meant to be a serious film about mental health, so I wasn't expecting a serious portrayal that tries to hit on every fine aspect of it. If anything, it does an excellent job with the topic of mental health, without being a serious mental health drama type film.
All in all, a well put together film, that's at the very least enjoyable, but can be very heartfelt and relatable for many of us here.
