It's just a vulgar romance, nothing more

As far as expectations go, it's a terrible movie. Because it uses the same core concept as "This man is from the earth": people who are immortal and immortal, I was looking forward to how the screenwriter will use it. As a result, it became another love story, and it was pretty vulgar. There are so many opportunities to take the movie to another level, it's just wasted.

Since there is another pair of "normal lovers", why not make a comparison and explore human emotions. I prefer to write someone as the heroine's ex-boyfriend.
Since people who write about eternal youth re-enter the net of love and focus on showing the powerlessness of death, it is also possible to compare the two concepts of "immortality" and "death", and their extended conflicts. Actually, there is no one dead, and the husband of the only heroine died in an accident before the heroine could stay young forever. The protagonist (and the eternal youth she is supposed to represent) faces no death. In the end, even the heroine is fine! Another car accident, turned out to be fine!

    The advantages are that the photography costumes are good; the disadvantages are too many: the voice-over is particularly annoying, and she is really talking nonsense in a serious manner; the beauty has lived for so long, she must have a lot of adventures, and if you say something bad, you have to talk about her lame Love; I don't like Blake Lively's performance in the film, I use the mantra of Weibo fans to say that the acting is not enough; of course, the script is also very poor.
