  This film was just my cup of tea! A lovely, romantic story with a happy ending. I feel it would mainly appeal to women. However my boyfriend enjoyed it too.

  Forever Young.
  
  Forever Young is a mixture of action, romance with some humour, Mel Gibson returnd to civilsation somewhat 50 years later. Elijah Wood shows us his potential.

  An interesting plot
  
  Not a bad film, a bit sad at the end though, I like films to end on a happy note. Otherwise worth watching
