17-year-old Jade Butterfield graduates from high school with an impressive college scholarship but few friends, focusing on her studies rather than a social life.

Late that night, Jade sneaks David into the study where - at her urging - they make love on the floor.

Ultimately, Jade opts to decline the internship to spend the summer with David, infuriating Hugh.

One night, while the rest of the family is setting off fireworks outside, David walks into the garage and sees Hugh cheating on Anne with their mutual friend from the graduation party.

Hugh bails David out of jail on the condition he ends it with Jade, and she takes the internship as planned.

Mace secretly invited Jenny to join them, reminding David that he had friends and a life before he and Jade started dating.

Jade and David see the house in flames, so he rushes back in to save Hugh, who is struggling to gather up Chris' possessions.

Anne and Hugh amicably separate, but remain determined to rediscover their love, inspired by Jade and David; who are flying out to California, having been selected as maid of honor and best man at Sabine and Keith's wedding.

On Rotten Tomatoes, the film has an approval rating of 16% based on 93 reviews, with the consensus: "Blander than the original Endless Love and even less faithful to the source material, this remake is clichéd and unintentionally silly.

[8] Peter Travers of Rolling Stone wrote: "This Endless Love is a photo shoot, not a movie.

"[9] Ronnie Scheib of Variety wrote: "In The Greatest (2009) and Country Strong (2010), Feste proved herself quite skilled, if not especially innovative, at limning her characters’ emotional travails.

"[10] Stephanie Merry of The Washington Post said "The movie feels like Nicholas Sparks fan fiction.

This is sure to connect with its target audience -- and it's Oscarworthy compared to the 1981 version -- yet it remains overwrought and pointless for fans of the novel.

[14] End title track "Don't Find Another Love" was sung by Tegan and Sara and written by Golden Globe award-winning composer Julie Frost.

[17] Director Shana Feste had considered using the original film's iconic theme song in one scene but eventually decided against it.
