Jeremiah C The movie begins with a fascinating premise and remains interesting through the second act. Unfortunately, it then collapses into the most stupid and contrived storytelling possible. Some parts of the movie are absolutely silly, and yet the movie takes itself so seriously. It is science fiction that forgets the fictional aspect when it tries to be deep and leaves the science (and logical) aspect behind whenever convenient. There are parts of this story that should have gone unspoken, but they don’t. I’ll stop short of spoilers, but needless to say the ending is ultimately ridiculous, and nothing anyone says or does makes any damned sense once the movie reaches its climax. Although I predicted what would’ve been a satisfying ending, the third act that gets you there is really stupid. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 12/22/24 Full Review wa s Wonderful, heart-warming story. Some reviews criticize her age portrayal, but i think folks are forgetting the era was nearly eighty years earlier than present times, and looks were more formal, even young people. I thought the portrayal was appropriate. Miss Lively plays a warm, at times fun hearted young woman, trapped in an endless life of 29 years. Unable to experience love like the rest of us that may get to spend their life with someone, and grow old with someone close. To me, an older person, a tragedy. Sure I hate aging, but it will happen, and being alone as it happens is not something I would want. Harrison Ford as always is excellent. His portrayal of the deja vu moment and surprise to his effort to confirm his feelings. Moving and compelling. This is a good movie of a fantasy event none of us will ever experience, but the premise is compelling and this movie, I feel, did it justice. It's not an academy award movie, but the actors efforts, the story-line, and the emotions it creates were enjoyable and moving. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/17/24 Full Review Chris B I absolutely love this movie its beautiful and intriguing. A review i read said that it needed to be a younger actress playing the main character as blake lively looked to be in her 40s... um she was 28 when this came out, at maximum, and her character is 29. I dont think it matters what age she is. She is outstanding and the chemistry between her and harrison ford is electric and deeply emotive, albeit a brief moment in the film. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/25/24 Full Review Alycia F I had real trouble with such a blatant portrayal of toxic relationships between Adeline and Ellis. Not listening to her when she did not give him her phone number, stalking her by asking for her address at her place of work, not hearing her when she explained why she didn't call him, patronising her in front of his family during the board game and kinda overall pushy and stalky behaviour. And she was the one who felt like she had to apologise! And a teen choice nomination. Do better, Hollywood. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 11/23/24 Full Review Dennis D 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.
