A decent attempt at a book adaptation

Though I had never read the book, I had heard good things about "The Time Traveler's Wife". Girl falls for guy, but girl has a hard time with guy because guy keeps leaving girl alone, because, you know, it's in his genes. I think a lot of people who live with absent spouses or partners, like traveling salesmen, would really understand how Clare felt about her situation. All in all, this was a truly sappy romantic flick. Its story worked hard to tug at my heartstrings, and I understand that it caused some people to actually cry. There were moments when I was rooting for the characters, and others when I wanted to scream, "Oh, get on with it!" And the ending was entirely predictable, if a tad dragged out too.

This Time It Is

"The Time Traveler's Wife" was much better than what I expected it to be. I had a whole bottle of water and an unopened Junior Mints box when I walked out during the credits to this movie. It kept me enrapt in its own story and storytelling abilities. I truly enjoyed Eric Bana [who could've been another Tom Cruise, but wasn't, thank God] as well as Rachel MacAdams [whose performance was the first I liked since "Red Eye"]. The ending is brilliantly done, tying up every loose end and adding fervent meaning to the romantic entanglements between all of the characters. Though differing and varying slightly from the book, it was true to the message and all of it was great.
