Apart from an ending that seemed a tad stretched and the voiceovers that were unnecessary, this is an unusual and engaging saga of everlasting love.

Given the performances, this should have been a delightful outing. If only, it wasn’t so strong on subtlety and so weak on progression.

The twists in the plotline, impressive performances by the cast along with Adaline’s anxiety and the outcome of her decision, are what keep you hooked to the screen.

Blake Lively as Adaline is remarkable. She looks sophisticated and genuine with her clipped diction and gait.
