Synopsis : After miraculously remaining 29 years old for almost eight decades, Adaline Bowman has lived a solitary existence, never allowing herself to get close to anyone who might reveal her secret. But a chance encounter with charismatic philanthropist Ellis Jones reignites her passion for life and romance. When a week-end with his parents threatens to uncover the truth, Adaline makes a decision that will change her life forever.

The Age Of Adaline just indicates which the film will revolve around the age. This is an american romance and fantasy film.

The film begins like a documentary. There are plans of our world and a narrator speaks at the same time. After, there is a yellow taxi where is Adaline Bowman (played by Blake Lively). My first impression is that the thematic of the movie immediatly was noticed, whether : the age, because Adaline changes her identity (she became Jenny Larson) for her security. But why ? What purpose ?
Adaline has made a promise : every 10 years, she must change her name for her security. But a few days later, she meets Ellis Jones (played by Michiel Huisman) and life will perhaps be upset.

The positives things : an excellent acting because there are many known actors (Harrison Ford (Star Wars), Kathy Baker (Edward Scissorhands), Ellen Burstyn (The Exorcist, Interstellar), Blake Lively (Gossip Girl)...). The soundtracks, created by Rob Simonsen, turn around the jazz sonorities. To finish, the ages are very well recreated.

The negatives things : there are too many flashbacks and it's difficult for understanding the plot. More over, the unrealistic for some scenes, for exemple in the 2 scenes about the Adaline's car accidents. There are many little extracts which are very sad and tragic and it created a strange feeling.

- Adaline Bowman / Jenny Larson : during her car accident when she has 29 years old, an incredible phenomenon occurred : Adaline ceased to age, condemning herself never to live great love stories.


- Ellis Jones : he is the Jenny's boyfriend and he meets Adaline during a new year. It's love at first sight.

- Fleming : she is the Adaline's girl. She only wants the best for her mother.

- Williams Jones : he is the father of Ellis but a mysterious link unites to Adaline.

Overall, this film is well done and it's a good entertainment. The plot is very worked and interesting. We are crossed by different emotions during The Age Of Adaline.
