THE AGE OF ADALINE (Theatrical Release USA 2015)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.8|5.0 Starsìììì

The Age of Adaline, not the first movie about humans becoming immortal, delivers a far more interesting and inspiring story than others within this concept that absolutely earns its watch. Unique presentation and soft, velvety approach into each scene gently encourage following the movie through to its conclusion. The main actors do not compete with the story; they complement the story. Director Lee Toland Krieger catches an almost ethereal factor that delivers a WOW! piece of entertainment. The movie is worth its watch.
