Critics Consensus

The Age of Adaline ruminates on mortality less compellingly than similarly themed films, but is set apart by memorable performances from Blake Lively and Harrison Ford.

The unhurried storytelling matches Adaline's endless life, making this a respectable date movie.

Like Adaline, the film gives the sense of being somewhat uncomfortable in 2015, but while the movie makes a case for romanticizing the past, Adaline's story shows the limitations of detaching yourself from the present.

Lively is appealing, natural and often touching.

The Age of Adaline is a solid film, well-acted and shot with sobriety and style...that instead of leaning into the magical realism at its core,...plays it safe as a romantic drama...[Full review in Spanish]

Rated: 7/10

Despite a cold and off-putting third-person narration, Adaline is a film that eventually will melt the most of cynical of cinemagoers' hearts.

Rated: 4/5

There’s a genuine sweetness and charm in this fantasy romance that sweeps me off my feet. Lively does a fine job carrying this film with her beauty and grace.

Beautiful storyline. I love that it takes place in San Francisco and you get some history as well. Well acted and very believable. The part about the stock market algorithm developed from a weather algorithm is spot on as a friend actually is a stock market algorithm architect. Excellent ending to a wonderful story. One of our favorite movies of all-time!

Came across this movie on a whim and decided to watch it. I enjoyed it. They took an interesting premise and pulled it off. Pretty decent story flow kept me interested. I thought the Harrison Ford scenes in the latter part of the movie really brought it home.
