The Time Traveler's Wife Movie Review
The movie is not so much about the time travel itself as it is about the problems caused because of the uncontrolled time travel of Henry. Imagine if you disappeared and appeared elsewhere at totally ramdom moments...leaving all of your worldly belongings behind when you did so.
The movie does share many of the situations Henry finds himself barenaked in when he leaves one time period and journeys to another one in his life when he visits his wife Clare as a child and as an adult. He even manages to visit himself as a child and as an older adult. The big story, however, in this picture is the relationship and the love story between Henry and Clare and how it manages to survive the upheavel of Henry's abrupt departures and absences.

Official Movie Description of The Time Traveller's Wife
Amazon says, "The Time Traveler's Wife weaves together destiny and devotion, past and future to turn an extraordinary love into an extraordinary love story." It is a love story for sure. One in which a girl and a woman has a bond with a librarian who is able to time travel, albeit involuntarily. They learn that they have to treasure every moment they are together because he may be gone when they least expect it.

Amazon Customer Reviews of The Time Traveler's Wife
The Amazon customer reviews do a good job of telling us a lot about this story. Chris Pandolfi says that in this story "you leave today and enter a world of yesterday and tomorrow." I think that is a wonderful way of describing this movie. Others praise the adaptation of a good novel, discuss how it covers the subject of timelessness verses time and inspires one to make the best use of the time we have together on this earth. O. Hassanian says, "The love, the pain, the joy and the tragedy equal a movie worth watching."

- The Time Traveler's Wife Review By Movie Review
I like one of the final lines in this review, because it is true. "If there's such a thing as the thinking person's tear-jerker, this is it."- The Time Traveler's Wife Review By The New York Times
The New York Times uses some interesting words like "science-fictiony romance" to describe the love story and "all that sniffy, weepy stuff."- Movie Review for The Time Traveler's Wife -by CinemaBlend.com
I like Cinema Blend's observation that The Time Traveler's Wife is not really about the science fiction of time travel but rather about the emotional impacts of time travel.- The Time Traveler's Wife Movie Review by Marshall Fine:
I love Marshall Fine's analogy of The Time Traveller's Wife as being like an Oprah novel -- packed with feeling and just enough ideas to make you think...
Blu-ray Movie Review of The Time Traveller's Wife
"The Time Traveler's Wife features a sumptuous 1080p/VC-1 transfer brimming with rich colors and dramatic primaries." I would agree, some of the scenes, like the meadow were truly beautiful as this film was "properly primed and polished for mass consumption. Fans of the film will be ecstatic." Blu-ray.com gives the video transfer a 4.0. That's pretty decent.
With regard to the sound, blu-ray.com says, "Warner's able-bodied DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 surround track is just as impressive." Remembering that this is not an action-packed movie, it does a great job of sharing the particularly quiet moments. "Another solid offering from Warner Brothers." Blu-ray.com also gives the audio a 4.0.
The extras? Well, you do not have to be an expert of any sort to decide that the two extras shared on this film are just not enough. My son had the special features screen up and all I found myself thinking was, "Where are the extras?" The ones that are provided feature two supplements, one called Unconventional Love Story and the other, Love Beyond Words. They share the stories of the characters and of the adaptation of the book to movie format.

"As usual, Danna turns out another fantastic score that is lush and beautiful. Highly recommended if you're into easy going, romantic scores." ~~ Matthew M. Osborne Matthew would add that you should carefully consider the format you choose as he considers the CD-R to be of lesser quality as it is not pressed by the manufacturer and that it will deteriorate with age. If you are a serious music collector, make sure you choose this, the actual CD from the manufacturer, and you will have it forever.

- I still haven't seen the movie, but now I'm interested again after a re-visit to this lens. I might be able to survive a marriage like that, but not sure I'd like it.

- I loved this movie. Of course I wouldn't want him to disappear for years, but a few days would be ok I guess.
