It is far to be the most inspired definition. or the most honest. but it is a usefull one. in a special sense. because it talks about an old "if...", dream of mankind, desire of many from us - to be young. forever. and this idea, as ingredient of a love story, using Harrison Ford and Ellen Burstyn is a good detail. because ...it real works. because it could be discovered as parable. because it propose a story who, without be spectacular, it has the status of hot chocolate for soul not sentimental, beautiful, using crumbs from classic films about same theme, it is one of films who deserve to see. not as refuge. but for simple motif to see the nuances of life. that is all.
An easy going and at times predictable romantic movie perfectly suited to a snowy Sunday afternoon. It has a truely fantastical and I think unnecessary plot line, but this aside it is engaging and well acted.
My wife and I both thoroughly enjoyed this. We picked it up at Redbox one evening. The movie kept us glued to the TV until we finished it. Blake Lively is extraordinarily charming and complex in this. Harrison Ford gives one of his typically stellar performances and adds a lot of weight just where it's needed.I noticed quite a few things in terms of the script and plot that were well thought out (metaphors, etc.).This is a deep but enjoyable film that left me wanting more.
A great idea for a movie that is kind of ruined by the corny, cliché lines that just make you cringe. I was first drawn to this movie as i thought the story line looked unique and i jump at the opportunity to watch a movie that i haven't seen 100 times before. However, there were a lot of times where the execution of this story was overshadowed by feelings of utter cringe at the two love birds awfully written flirting one liners and smart remarks. The writer was trying to make the characters appear as witty as possible but it just made the romance unrelatable and robotic.
