“It Ends With Us” looks like it has been around for years.
The corny plot, the gauzy settings and the oh-so-questionable link to the past conspire to remind us of similar films we actually liked.
And then it goes on too long and we realize it’s not the dream scenario we thought.
This image released by Sony Pictures shows Justin Baldoni, right, and Blake Lively in a scene from “It Ends With Us.”
Like any number of Nicholas Sparks stories, it swirls around a soft-focus life.
Blake Lively plays Lily Bloom, a free-spirited woman (of course) who opens a flower shop in Boston, befriends a neurosurgeon and seems to be headed for the ultimate life of happiness.
The shop is a hit (it’s featured in a magazine!), Lily’s best friend is a hoot and that relationship with the surgeon? It blossoms … but so, too, does his temper.
When Ryle (Justin Baldoni, who also directed) is triggered, he flies off the handle and slugs the woman in his life.

She tries to overlook his tendencies but when a man from her past (who was involved in an earlier abuse situation) returns, anything is possible.
