Synopsis:Based on the best–selling book about a love that transcends time. Clare has been in love with Henry her entire life. She believes they are destined to be together, even though she never knows when they will be separated: Henry is a time traveler — cursed with a rare genetic anomaly that causes him to live his life on a shifting timeline, skipping back and forth through his lifespan with no control. Despite the fact that Henry‘s travels force them apart with no warning, Clare desperately tries to build a life with her one true love.

A romantic weepie wrapped inside a science fiction 25 out of 100
The Time Traveler’s Wife is a romantic weepie wrapped inside a science fiction movie boxed within a mystery puzzle. Directed by Robert Schwentke (Flightplan), and adapted from Audrey Niffenegger’s bestselling novel of 2003 by Bruce Joel Rubin (who also wrote the screenplay for another mushy paranormal picture, Ghost), it wants desperately to engage our hearts, but for long stretches will leave most of us scratching our heads.

Romantic Weepy 35 out of 100
Absolutely loved it. Total chick flic but right up my alley. Wonderful performances from all making this unbelieveable story, believeable. If you are looking to sit home with your loved one, glass of vino, this is the movie for you. Easy watching romance.

Loved this film 45 out of 100
I haven't enjoyed a film like this in a while. I love backwards forwards films, reminds me of Sliding Doors or The Lake House. Leaves you thinking about it for days after. Both actors were very good. Eric Bana is gorgeous. I haven't red the book but would like to now.

Romantic Sci-Fi. 35 out of 100
I quite enjoyed this romantic sci-fi film. It has a good story and is well acted by both leads ( I never get tired of watching Rachel Mc Adams) and it will appeal to both sexes.

Odd 35 out of 100
Slow confusing start, in theory a good movie! and the beautiful eric certainly helps, but one you would only watch once,

A Chick-Flick Sci-Fi Movie !!! 25 out of 100
Tyhe only thing sci-fi is the time travel which, of course, raises allthe usual issues and paradoxes which are completely ignored is this film. Left with a somewhat drawn-out romance tale which is neither particularly riveting or told that well. Passable stuff, but never watch more than once.

Did I miss something? 10 out of 100
Watchable but I felt the book probably would have been good and it did not translate to the big screen. Would not recommend it to be honest.

Heartbreaking sci-fi 50 out of 100
Absolutely brilliant weepie in a sci-fi framework. Did not think this was going to be my kind of movie - only watched it for the sci-fi interest but Rachel McAdams is astounding! Girls you will love this movie!
