Movie Reviews of The Time Traveler's WifeMovie Review: An excellent ride! Summary: 5 Stars
Was thoroughly impressed with both the story line and the execution of this emotional roller coaster. I love time travel stories and this one goes in a different direction than any I've come across before. The production was excellent and the 'time travel effect' was unique. I will admit to being a bit concerned when that effect included the traveller showing up naked - I don't need obligatory nudity / soft porn in my movies. This however, was tastefully done and not offensive at all - more like a classical museum piece than the soft porn we are usually subjected to by the Hollywood crowd. [That being said, when we watched the 'Making of...' bonus section, it is mentioned that there was a moment in the book where the main character meets himself and has sex with himself - we won't be reading the book and I am grateful these types of scenes were not included in the movie - it would have fouled it completely for us].
Given where this movie COULD have gone and where it actually went, I have no hesitation in giving it 5 stars. Kudos to the writers and the director for portraying an amazing vision of time travel that could have been very uncomfortable to watch. If you were turned off by the book, but intrigued by the concepts, I highly recommend you forget what you may have found offensive in the book and enjoy the concept having been given a tasteful and sensitive treatment that portrays in a powerful way the essence of the story and concept without offending the sensibilities.
