Storyline – 

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. A reflex causes her heart to slow, and her breathing to stop, before a bolt of lightning hits her car, prompting a compression of electrons in her DNA that will be discovered in the year 2035, and named the Bowman Principle. Thanks to this unusual occurrence, the story goes, Adaline “will never age another day.”

Our Views –

Personally I feel that Blake’s performance is always so sympathetic and appealing and on the point to its character. Blake looks very young and stunning but her speech is all very old and wise. She has all the wisdom and benefits of the age and none of the disadvantages. 

Aging can depend on the way we look at it. This whole movie depends on it but in all it seemed a very slow moving movie. It could have shown what Adaline could have done with her immortal life. The last part of the movie is very good for a romantic heart and leaves you teary- eyed.
