The Age of Adaline

After miraculously ''remaining'' 29 years old for almost 80 years, Adaline Bowman (Blake Lively) has lived a solitary existence, never allowing herself to get close to anyone who might reveal her secret.
But a charismatic philanthropist Ellis Jones (Michiel Huisman) change her life. Adaline regains her passion and desire to love. Everything turn for the better... By the time...Things get complicated when a weekend with his parents (Harrison Ford!!!) threatens to uncover the truth.

Generally I expected more. The story recall a less complicated version The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. Obvious logical questions are ignored. However, issues regarding her immortality were very strangely explained. Pseudo-scientific explanation didn't fit completely into the film. However, cast deserves attention. Blake Lively is hipnotic, even I don't know whether the reason is her beauty or her acting? In film we can also see Harrison Ford, already mature, but probably even better.
I am also sensitive to beautiful costumes and I wasn't disappointed :)

In total: the film medium, but if you want spend a time agreeably, not see the movie ambitious and demanding reflection, The Age of Adaline is perfect.
