Fabulous! - By: S. J. Dunphy, 19 Aug 2010 
As someone who fell asleep while reading the book I was interestedin how I would find the film. The answer is that I thoroughly enjoyed it. It was romantic, warm, mystifying & well-structured. I heartily recommend it.
Better than the book - By: Cathy, 13 Aug 2010 Having read the book, I found the film far more enjoyable.
I found when reading the book, I needed to go back over parts of it, to understand where the story was & where Henry & Claire were.
The film made the story easier to follow & I loved the ending. It had more feeling to it & left you feeling Henry could still appear at any timein the future. It left you with hope & claire with hope.
The Time Travelers Wife - By: Anne, 13 Aug 2010 
Saw the trailer for this movie & expected alot more was disappointed & wished I hadnt have wasted my money
pleasing film though derivative - By: tell it like it is, 05 Aug 2010 This is a film which will please the non specialist audience (those not particularly au fait with SF concepts like time paradoxes etc)
The plot is obviously non linear & does contradict itselfin a couple of places where the time traveller does change the future by winning the lottery. Destinyin the film is set up to be a rigid affair chaos theory & non linearity concepts put aside.
Like Billy Pilgrim from Vonnegut's 'slaughterhouse 5' the time travellers life is a set thing & he merely travels to different episodesin that linear life. The love story which if toldin the normal fashion would be fairly mundane & stereotypical but as with the time travellers perception of things this stirs the natural ideas of narrative & ingeniously & creatively makes eventsin the film more interesting & poignant.
The time travelling love story reminded mein places of Richard Matheson's 'Somewherein Time' which was also made into a film, but was more successfulin tearing at the emotions than this film manages.
The acting is fine, the story is interesting (though ardent SF fans may balk)
Definitely worth watching, a stimulating exercisein working out how all the eventsin the film must pan out. The love story is entertaining - though not a great work & there is no deep subtextin all of this.
The Time Traveler's Wife - By: marie-celeste, 12 Jul 2010 Not sure what I was expecting, but by the end of the film I was confused & left with the thought, 'what came first, the chicken or the egg?'
As someone who loves romances etc, I found this quite hard going, to be honest not a film I would go out of my way to watch again.
