Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Donald Seymour This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Haven Kaycee It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

mharah There are plenty of reasons to remake a movie. Even the movies which were good in the first place. Would we say that no one can revive a Broadway play because it was so good the first time? Should a Beethoven symphony never be replayed because we have Bernstein's magnificent recording? We remake originals because we feel we have a new take on them. (Shakespeare thrives on that.) If the original was forgettable (or even forgotten), a remake will probably be easy (although not necessarily any better). But if the original was very good - or at least very memorable - a remake will be quite a challenge. The original Endless Love was controversial - either good or bad, depending on who is describing it - but it certainly was memorable. It was melodramatic and very much a soap opera - but it made the most of what it was. This remake fails the challenge. It remodels the guts of the narrative without retaining its bite. The original was dark, even risky. This is just sort of vanilla, if a bit anxious. I like Alex Pettyfer's work a lot, but he shouldn't have been cast as David, not because he couldn't act the role (he did well with it) but because he was too old. David is supposed to be just graduating high school and too shy to approach fellow senior Jade. Alex was coming off his very buff role in Magic Mike. He looks tall, dark and handsome. No way he wouldn't have had girls - and boys, too - all over him. Jade would hardly not have noticed him. The original - with David being 17 and Jade 15 - didn't face that problem. When producers secure the remake rights to a film, they pretty much can do whatever they want. But that doesn't mean it will work. This remake doesn't make it as a feature film. As TV movie which wasn't titled Endless Love, it might have fared better.

Davis P This remake of a 1980's Brooke Shields' romance film lives up to its title, Endless Love. Alex Petyffer and Gabriella Wilde make a very sweet, romantic, and above all believable young couple here, their chemistry is so undeniably real. The acting here wasn't cheesy like I expected it to be, it was believable and authentic. Joely Richardson and Bruce Greenwood are awesome additions to the cast too, they are dramatic and you can really see how the situations and different going on that happen throughout the film affect them, in both good and bad ways. Joely was actually one of my very favorite parts of the entire movie, she's just so great in her role, as she always is in her other movies. Bruce is very good too, he carries his intense scenes well and with great passion. This movie basically is cute romantic escapism entertainment, not a whole lot more than that, and that is not a bad thing, at least not in this film's case. The sex scene between Wilde and Petyffer is very well filmed, romantic, and delicate too, exactly how it should be. 8/10 for Endless Love!

MovieHoliks I saw this awhile back off HBO GO. The only reason I watched this was really just out of curiosity, to compare with the original 1981 film starring Martin Hewitt and a young Brooke Shields. This recent remake stars Gabriella Wilde (who starred in another recent remake, "Carrie") and Alex Pettyfur ("Magic Mike"), as well as one of my fav. character actors, Bruce Greenwood as the girl's dad. HE is the only good thing about this- his performance. Yes, he's an a**hole, but you can't help but empathize with him a bit-?? LOLOverall, this movie is just a sugar-coated/watered down remake. I had remembered the original being a bit edgier, and looked into it and found I was right. In fact, upon further research, found that the original book it was based on was even edgier than the first film. Why did they not base the new movie directly on THAT instead of this poor piece of work-?? And last, but not least- no Tom Cruise as the budding pyromaniac??? -now THAT is the main reason to stay away- VERY far away from this movie!!??? LOL

c-matassa I am an 18 years old guy, and not a huge romance fan. That being said, I loved this one. There's something about this movie that hooks me in, and I just want to watch it over and over again. I've already watched it two times this weekend. The acting was good, and the characters go very well together. Yes, there wasn't many deep heart to heart talks between the two main characters, but you feel the chemistry between them. It was very well shot. I can't wait to see Gabriella in her next movie, she is an amazing actress. All in all, great movie. I definitely recommend this, and if you're a guy you might like this too.OH, I forgot to mention... This movie has a KILLER soundtrack. The music is just perfect in this movie.
