Adaline Bowman (Blake Lively) has miraculously remained a youthful 29 years of age for nearly eight decades, never allowing herself to get close to anyone lest they discover her secret. However, a chance encounter with a charismatic philanthropist named Ellis Jones (Michiel Huisman) reawakens Adaline's long-suppressed passion for life and romance. When a weekend with Ellis' parents threatens to expose the truth, Adaline makes a decision that changes her life forever.

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.

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.

Lol I felt like i was taking crazy pills watching it. Terrible. The main actress didn't look young at all. Was NOT believable. Maybe if she was supposed to be 90yrs old would make more since but the woman LOOKED like she COULD be in her 40s..... i just don't get it... Just my opinion. A younger actress would of played this character much more believably.
