Age of Adaline is unrealistic as a marvel comic, but it makes up for it with all the charm. Blake Lively is adorable as Adaline in this romantic fantasy.
Adaline (Lively) is born in the early 1900s and after an accident she's rendered "ageless" stuck in her 29-year-old beautiful body. Hmmm...what is wrong with that? She cannot have relationships like everyone else and she is changing scenes but not looks, her entire existence.
After decades in this state she meets a man worth exposing her never-revealed secret. A little too much coincidence ensues that we have to overlook, but it is a movie after all. This plays out like a Nicholas Sparks story, "follow your head or your heart?" Heed my warning and see this delightful gem of a film at the theatre with JUST your girlfriends!
