This film does a very poor job of even telling its story. It simply goes all over the map, both story wise and layout wise. The rules to the time travel are unclear and everything seems to be way too convoluted and pointless for this film to make sense. The acting was a tad low key and boring, Bana sounded way too happy and McAdams failed to convince of how hard living with a time travelling companion would be. Really a 20 year old version a 35 year old version and a 40 year old version. Really?

romans, dramat, sci-fi... wszystkiego po trochu a jakby niczego nie by%u0142o...

The movie lacks a strong script and a story line. It seems lacking and leaves a lot of questions unanswered. It doesnt bring out the complexity in the relationship that is brought about by a person being absent. The movie is in no way sci-fi and fails as a romantic drama. I believe that movie could have been better made if it was better adapted.

A great book, but the movie is a swing and miss from Schwentke!

This film takes what seems to be a comic book style storyline and develops a very strong romance based on it. This film starts out average, a little annoying to be honest, but develops in each chapter to become a stronger and stronger story, in stead of winding down it really does wind up. It's passionate, painful, and sweet. Certainly the best Romance of 2009.

Probably one of the most unnecessary book adaptations I've ever seen. Of course, there are some things like imagery and colors which make you feel better, but the movie lost half of it book sense among abrupt scenes and far fetched drama collisions.

The time travel construct wasn't coherent it jumped from uniformity (everything that was going to happen happened the first time it was experienced by anyone) to update (when you go back in time it changes the affected sequences). It ha it's good moments and it had it's bad (like his death-umm, he steals stuff all the time, why wouldn't he get shot by a cop or just the wrong victim) but over all the film was pretty good.

The script reminded me of 'The Lake House' in that, instead of focusing on the particulars of time travel, the concept is used as a gimmick. Which is fine, as the situations it allows for are interesting. Schwendtke's direction, though, is often uninspired. Which is too bad, because you just cannot hire more likeable leads than McAdams and Bana.

Not as bad as i thought it would be. But pretty forgettable.

this movie was absolutely awesome, i loved it. i have no idea why i watched it, because i generally shy away from chick flicks. great story, the only detractors from a better score are the time spent on trying to have a baby, and the sad ending.

gimmiky movie

This film has something romantic all about itself, which is pleasant to watch for the girls, but has something special too (I mean the time traveling aspect of course) which is somewhat more attractive than only romance for boys. Enjoyable to watch for girls, as well as boys.

This movie is incredibly under-rated. Yes, it's a bit of a chick flick, but I loved it. It's appropriately sentimental, and I found it quite moving.

An alright movie Rachel Mcadams looks good as usual

A great film about what it'd really be like to be a time traveller...and find love. The cast and acting are fantastic. The story and script writing are excellent. A couple of the comedic moments were a little forced, but his explanation of what he does when he travels is gold. I recommend this for when you want an emotionally evocative romantic drama to lose yourself in.

great movie - furthermore, keep at least one eye open for rachel mcadams' big nude scene!!

yine güzel ba%u015Flay%u0131p kötü biten bir film senaryosu. Adam%u0131n ben genelde avlan%u0131r%u0131m yarg%u0131s%u0131 gerçekle%u015Fiyor biraz komik bir %u015Fekilde...

Time Travler's a Pedo . No i joke , not a god awful chic flick and Rachel Mcadams is nice to look at .

"To swoon over the lovely Rachel McAdams or hunky Eric Bana is easy, but doing so during The Time Traveler's Wife requires willful blindness to the sloppy nonsensicality of their across-the-years love story." - Nick Schager

The acting was mediocre at best and the odd camera work and what seemed like a lack of a good microphone and good editing distracted greatly from the movie. Otherwise, the plot was good and touching, though their relationship seems oddly rushed, kinda makes sense with the whole time travel thing, but still%u2026

better than I expected, especially the part he learns he's gonna die. but why on earth, does he end up involuntarily around the city or in America? Couldn't he find himself somewhere in Alaska, Sahara, Antarctica -somewhere in the wild and then eaten by animals:)) + also the traveler should have been some another actor...
