(1 - 27) of 27 OFCS Rating: 41% Rotten Page   1   "I can't remember when I've had such a hard time becoming emotionally involved in a love story on film."   ReelTalk Movie Reviews   Betty Jo Tucker 1.5/5 "contrived plot coincidences and the dead air between the film's photogenic leads keep getting in the way"   Filmcritic.com   Bill Gibron 3.5/4 "It's beautifully crafted and endearingly old-fashioned all the way; an alluring soap opera for those who like to dive into the deep end of the syrup pool."   Sci-Fi Movie Page   Brian Orndorf C- "McAdams and Bana are easy enough on the eyes to distract from the script's Grand Canyon-sized plot holes, but not enough to keep your mind off the insipid storytelling. Even from its gooey sentimental standpoint, "The Time Traveler's Wife" is two pints sh"   ColeSmithey.com   Cole Smithey 3/10 "The question of her own "free will" niggles at the edges of Clare's experience throughout the movie named for her."   PopMatters   Cynthia Fuchs 1.5/5 "Unless your idea of cinematic bliss is a chance to catch Bana's buff torso or shoulders, there isn't much to the film."   eFilmCritic.com   Dan Lybarger 3.5/4 "...one of the most moving and flat-out indelible love stories to come around in quite some time."   Reel Film Reviews   David Nusair D "Wears on one's wits with its senseless hokum and dour melodramatics."   Ozus' World Movie Reviews   Dennis Schwartz 2/4 "Is The Time Traveler's Wife terrible? Not really. Striving for meaning as it revolves around the process of life, the film remains perilously thin and unenlightening."   DustinPutman.com   Dustin Putman B "Succinctly establishes the world it takes place in, then lets us experience, to some extent, the feelings and emotions that would naturally occur in such a world."   Film.com   Eric D. Snider D "This sappy romantic fantasy proves that a movie doesn't have to be a CGI extravaganza based on a video game, comic book or toy line to be inordinately dumb."   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek "A dreary and poorly paced romantic drama with too many unintentionally laughable lines."   Spirituality and Practice   Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat "If you cut through the romantic veneer that thinly blankets [this] epitome of manipulative women's weepies, you find the creepiest Tinsel Town picture since the pedophilic and incestuous 17 Again..."   Cinepinion   Henry Stewart 3/4 "The book is richer, but this is a solid, endearing telling of the same essential story, and is well worth the price of admission for those who appreciate romantic fantasy."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli "Parental Content Review"   Screen It!   Jim Judy 1/5 "click to read the full review"   Movies for the Masses   Joseph Proimakis B "...a superior romance when compared to the usual Hollywood suspect, but it is even better as an introduction to the novel which spawned it."   Reeling Reviews   Laura Clifford 1.5/4 "It's breaking [its own] rules in half, stomping on them, tossing them in the stove, and then throwing them right out the window."   Mark Reviews Movies   Mark Dujsik "[W]ill linger in your imagination just as the novel did... [A]chingly romantic but never schmaltzy and never less than charming and surprising..."   Flick Filosopher   MaryAnn Johanson C "Like the book, the movie gets weaker as it becomes more convoluted and far-fetched in the last third of the story."   Beliefnet   Nell Minow 2/4 "To swoon over the lovely Rachel McAdams or hunky Eric Bana is easy, but doing so during The Time Traveler's Wife requires willful blindness to the sloppy nonsensicality of their across-the-years love story."   Slant Magazine   Nick Schager 4/5 "O cineasta se sai bem ao desenvolver seus personagens e a trama sem permitir que a possibilidade do excesso de açúcar afunde o projeto."   Cinema em Cena   Pablo Villaca 2/5 "Yhe overall effect is akin to channel-hopping between "Slaughterhouse-Five" and "Somewhere in Time" late one night while under the effects of an extra helping of Nyquil."   eFilmCritic.com   Peter Sobczynski 4/5 "A thoroughly engaging film. The heavy emotional tone makes it feel a bit girly, but it's still a terrific story."   Shadows on the Wall   Rich Cline C+ "Time travel is an interesting plot device, even when it doesn't work well. It works just barely well enough in this movie."   Laramie Movie Scope   Robert Roten B "This is not a chick flick but one that will resonate with more mature audiences."   Reeling Reviews   Robin Clifford 4/10 "Some books translate well to the screen. Others don't. This creepy, convoluted, frustrating chick-flick falls into the latter category."   SSG Syndicate   Susan Granger  (1 - 27) of 27 OFCS Rating: 41% Rotten Page   1
