Initital Thought: Blake Lively hasn't been doing much lately so it's nice to see something new with her. Also the plot involves immortality which is always interesting if it's done in a well constructed way.
Characters/Acting: I've been seeing a few Game of Thrones actors in my recent movies. It will be interesting to see Daario Naharis being romantic instead a fighter. We also have some well rounded actors with the inclusion of both Ellen Burstyn and Harrison Ford. All the characters were great and well portrayed. Even the younger versions of the well known actors had very close resemblance.
Story: A romance that involves immortality. I have to say though it shall be interesting to see how everything happened and how it all plays out. I love how realistic the approach is to immortality. Well obviously as realistic as fiction can get. It's a very emotional ride. It truly makes you feel what it would be like to live an unending life. It could start out as a blessing, but eventually it would feel like a curse. I loved the ending and thought it added a nice touch to the realism.
Directing/Writing: I have only seen Celeste & Jesse Forever which was pretty good. It was interesting having seen Andy Samberg take on a serious romantic role instead of a goofy spaz. I can't say I've seen anything from Salvador Paskowitz. J. Mills Goodloe has done two movies I have seen. One of which was The Best of Me which wasn't amazing, but it was watchable. The other was Pride (the one with Terrence Howard) which I thoroughly enjoyed.
Final Thought: Wow that was emotionally intense. I felt happiness and a lot of the time pretty sad. It was really a beautiful and well done story. I always find these kind of sci-fi related romances to be so engaging. I suggest checking this out if you want something a little different in your romance. Also the main cast here make it even better.
