Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: C --
A bad but commercially popular romantic melodrama, due to Brooke Shields' celeb status at the time and the the Oscar-nominated tune by Lionel Richie.

...Strong performances....Hewitt is always believable and never flinches in the face of the extreme emotional demands...
Variety
Trite Blue Lagoonish dialogue trivializes this film adaptation of Scott Spencer's first-rate 1979 novel of obsession but does not spoil it on the level of pop romance.

A notorious disaster.

TV Guide
Is Brooke Shields truly obsession worthy? And can she carry, commercially, another movie about another kind of obsession? The answer is no.

Rating: 2/5 --
Vaguely interesting for causing controversy at the time, this tacky tale of illicit teenage romance hasn't aged particularly well.

Anyone unfamiliar with the story of Scott Spencer's novel is bound to be mystified by Franco Zeffirelli's latest film, which reduces Endless Love to a whimperingly latter-day Romeo and Juliet with a little pyromania thrown in.

Product Description:
Based on the best selling novel by Scott Spencer, this is an erotic, passion-soaked drama starring Brooke Shields as the obsession of boyfriend next-door Martin Hewitt. Their young love is so overwhelming that it starts to concern Brooke's parents, who try to separate them. The distraught boyfriend ends up setting Brooke's house on fire and is never allowed to see her again. It's a terrible thing, this flame of youthful passion, but each flicker is perfectly captured by director Franco Zeffirelli's operatic eye.
