It's a fascinating Benjamin Button-like premise and Lively shines in the lead, capturing the wisdom and weariness of someone over a century old. But it fails to explore what Adaline has done with her immortal life or the events of the 20th century.

This is a film that needs Amy Adams's twinkle or Sandra Bullock's nervous stammering. It needs a star with life.

The conceit endows Lively's regal air of distracted superiority with an intermittent pathos, but the director, Lee Toland Krieger, brings no identifiable perspective, and the screenwriters ... hardly tap a century's worth of material.

Adaline turns out to be so earnest and genuinely sweet, that one should be able to forgive its schmaltzy excesses.

A San Francisco-set fantasy in which [Blake Lively] plays out a Benjamin Button-like existence through some truly awkward romantic situations.

The Age of Adaline ends pretty much how you'd expect and takes a little long getting there, but will appeal to those who enjoy their romances delivered with a touch of history, and a little magical realism.

Lively is appealing, natural and often touching.

The Age of Adaline is a bold and elegant film that treats its characters with respect and refrains from exploiting its very exploitable premise.

Harrison Ford's performance is the big surprise in this otherwise wonky, frequently shambling tall tale.

This is one of those movies that have you wondering: Long before the actors signed up and the locations were chosen and the sets were built and the filming began, how did someone not say, "Um, we have a big problem with this story"?

Like Adaline, the film gives the sense of being somewhat uncomfortable in 2015, but while the movie makes a case for romanticizing the past, Adaline's story shows the limitations of detaching yourself from the present.

The Age of Adaline is the kind of adult romantic drama that's fallen out of favour, and it at least makes you consider how that is a shame.
