Pour l'éternité

A spiritual rom-com that balances absurdity and sincerity with impressive poise. Elizabeth Olsen shines as a woman caught between two great loves, with Miles Teller and Callum Turner delivering strong turns as her equally compelling suitors. Set in an afterlife that feels more grounded than fantastical,

Freyne's Eternity is a rare original that invites laughter, reflection, and just the right amount of heartbreak-a warm, thoughtful journey through the emotional weight of love, memory, and what we choose to carry forward.

This was like reeeeeally wonderful. Charming, magical, human, what movies are about. The premise had me in a choke-hold; you'll think about your own life, your choices, your loves, your legacy, your mortality. And if you'd do anything different. Cried like 5 times. Put Da'Vine Joy Randolph in everything.

My husband and I saw this pre-release as the "mystery movie" at our local theater and both enjoyed it. The actors did a great job and you really felt like the young characters were the actual younger version of the senior characters. It had an enjoyable plot that kept you laughing and interested to find out how it would end the entire time. In the end, we were happy with the final ending :)

It was a good date night movie. It's been a minute since my wife and I have been able to see a decent film that wasn't all action-packed. I didn't know much about it going in, but I've always been a fan of Miles Teller movies.

This one actually reminded me a bit of Albert Brooks' Defending Your Life - which is another great movie, by the way. It had a nice mix of serious undertones and comedy at the same time.

It's definitely not what I personally believe the afterlife to be, but it was an interesting take. The acting was really solid, and even though it's a comedy, I found it surprisingly thought-provoking. It dives into what love and marriage really mean in a way that sticks with you.

Do you need to see it in theaters? Not necessarily. But will you laugh? Absolutely. You might even tear up a little. I found it entertaining, and I'd definitely watch it again.

Eternity is a solid comeback to the fantasy and romantic comedy genre with a good sense of a humor and three fun lead performances from Elizabeth Olsen, Miles Teller and Callum Turner.

Let's be honest, the narrative and concept isn't really grand as previous movies like Defending Your Life and other romance movies have discussed stories like this before. Which is true that the writing is predictable, the structure is basic and the characters are pretty much one-noted or the typical kind of characters you witness from the romance genre. Yet, the movie still is fun because of the three strong chemistry between Olsen, Teller and Turner, which all three proves great conversations, chemistry and interactions between one another.

Observing their conversation, comedic tone and personalities were the best aspects about the movie. Alongside with some nice production designs and solid camerawork. Although some of the humor didn't land, certain pacing does drag, as a whole, it is a solid romance movie that is a good one time watch.
