The Time Traveler's Wife


The Time Traveler's Wife
A rather off-beat bittersweet love story, revolving around a woman who marries a time traveler. He's a mostly normal guy, except for a genetic defect which causes him to randomly travel through time and space, always arriving naked at the other end. The film explores the difficulty of maintaining a relationship under these circumstances, and I guess the time-travel part is an analogy for something else which crops up between couples.

Rolling Stone
Peter Travers quote iconI'd watch the vibrant Rachel McAdams and Eric Bana in anything, but The Time Traveler's Wife is pushing it.

C. Fuchs quote iconThe movie is really more for those who want to put their brain on pause for a couple of hours and just have a good sob.

Tomatometer quote iconThough it may satisfy fans of the novel, The Time Traveler's Wife's plot contrivances and illogical narrative hamper its big screen effectiveness.
