The Time Traveler's WifeA surprisingly enjoyable movie, "The Time Travelers Wife" manages to take a time travel movie in a different direction. As the main character is unable to control where and when he travels, the movie is more about having to deal with this problem and his attempts at having a life and a family despite it. A great concept. The delivery was decent but predictable, most major plot points played out exactly as I expected them to and that was sort of disappointing. Despite that, the story's sci-fi elements still managed to keep me hooked, more so than I would have been had this been a straight out chick flick.
The movie looks and sounds great with an amazing electronic score by Canadian composer Mychael Danna.
Similarly to "500 Days of Summer" this is a romantic movie that men can also enjoy. Despite the former still being a better movie "The Time Traveler's Wife" is still incredibly enjoyable.
