with charismatic philanthropist Ellis Jones reignites her passion for
life and romance. When a weekend with his parents threatens to uncover
the truth, Adaline makes a decision that will change her life forever
User Reviews
I
have been looking forward to this film because of the story line. There
are so many things to like about it - the flashbacks are well done and
so believable. The costumes are so fun to watch. I do not think I have
seen Blake Lively act before and I was clearly entranced by her
performance. She carries the film so well and is so quiet and well done.
I liked the actors - Michaeil Haisman is gorgeous and believable.
Harrison Ford - so happy to see him in a movie again - and he is also
believable as the father of Ellis. Elen Burnstyn is delightful. This
story could have been presented in such a different manner - director
Lee Toland Kreiger got it, and it is beautiful story-telling. I love the
last scene.
