MOVIE = 3+ stars.
DVD disc = OK
Blu-Ray disc = MAY be a problem for some folks.
You may need a newer Blu-Ray player (or a software update to your player) to be able to view the Blu-Ray disc. Per the tiny print on the back of case: 'Not compatible with all devices. Compatibility list subject to change at any time.'
At our house:
6-year old Samsung Blu-Ray player = OK
Sony Playstation 3 = OK
5-year old Sony Blu-Ray player could NOT read Blu-Ray disc (player is 100% up-to-date).
Read the negative reviews on Amazon and you'll see some other folks who had same problem (received a useless, unplayable Blu-Ray disc). If all else fails, the DVD disc will probably play fine even if your Blu-Ray player can't read the Blu-Ray disc.

Simply one of my most favorite movies ever. Since watching in the theatre, I've paid for streaming, borrowed from the library multiple times, and now I finally own my own copy. This is significant, because I rarely watch a movie more than once. If I do, usually it's because I haven't seen it since I was a kid, and now I would like to see what my take is on now that I'm an adult (case in point Georgy Girl. I watched it in the theatre when it came out, found it to be really boring. I recently watched it again, as an adult, my take on it was totally different)
Is "Age of Adaline" one of the best movies of all time? No. Did it win multiple awards? No. Will it be a movie historians talk about 100 years from now? No.
Is it really a fun, enjoyable, wonderful story beautifully told? YES! This movie is in a category with "Family Man" and "While You Were Sleeping", where they are not multiple Oscar winners, but are movies I enjoy watching, over and over.
If you like Blake Lively at all, she is really stellar in this one. The scene on New Years Night when she's wearing this incredible gown seals the deal.
Give it a try, you may love it as much as I do.
