Many people will choose to watch a movie because of an actor or more pure factors. "Lovers at the End of Time" strives to tell a beautiful story, and the immortal plot setting is attractive enough, even if it falls into the cliché of giving up eternal life for love, but Blake Lively can still stimulate your desire to watch movies.
Lovers at the End of Time
It has to be said that Blake Lively is very beautiful, her face, waist and legs are very natural, close to perfection, and there is a very rare affinity in her temperament. From a cinematic point of view, "Lovers at the End of Time" is relatively weak in plot, and this quality, almost certainly, the film script will definitely give people a sense of "pseudo-literary masterpiece", which must be one of the reasons why Natalie Portman and Catherine Heigl were invited but refused to act in the film.

Lively's role in the film as Adeleine Bergman spans more than 70 years, can you imagine how much tension and touching stories such a beautiful woman, in 70 years, meet different people, experience different things, accumulate different feelings, can build a tense, touching story? However, "Lovers at the End of Time" does not do a good job at all, and the emotional presentation between mother and daughter, lovers, and old loves is, to a large extent, only superficial, not reaching the heart, and the resonance is very limited.

However, I think a lot of people are willing to face this imperfect story for a full 110 minutes, admire The beauty of Lively, see her smile, appreciate her elegant physical performance. At the same time, the film also shows a representative fashion style according to the characteristics of different eras, in other words, "Lovers at the End of Time" is like a fashion blockbuster, those decent clothes, under the background of Lively's tall figure, bring people a very strong visual enjoyment.
Blake Lively in Lovers at the End of Time
While there's no shortage of former superstars like Harrison Ford in Lovers at the End of Time, I prefer it to be a one-man show by Blake Lively. In this plot, it is fortunate that Bergman is not played by Natalie Portman or Catherine Heigl.
