Review of The Age of Adaline (2015) by Lasttimeisaw — 24 Aug 2015
Thematically this movie is a romantic tall-tale, taps into the same territory of immorality like Richard Schenkman’s inventive indie Sci-Fi THE MAN FROM EARTH (2007, 7/10), Adaline Bowman (Lively), a woman stuck at the age of 29 forever thanks to a miracle happened when an car accident incurred on her, which an omniscient voiceover laboriously tries to explain from a scientific angle, as if today's technology has completely solved the mystery of living forever, even only superficially, we don’t buy it for a minute, instead of justifying the unjustifiable, why not just leave it open? Uncanny things happen all the time.
