Silver Linings Playbook 2012
A surprisingly deft handling of the challenges of mental illness. It has a couple of weak moments and perhaps resolves too much like your average rom-com, but strong performances from Cooper, Lawrence, and most of the supporting cast buoy it above the norm.

Zero Dark Thirty 2012
I'm not entirely sure it works as a movie, but it certainly is hard to look away. And anybody who thinks it's a rah-rah USA film is not watching closely enough.
