Rubbish, set up scenes, embarrassing and just rubbish! 2/10

The Time Traveler's Wife

Having just read the book (thank you Raymond!) I was interested to see how it had been interpreted onto the big screen. I expected to totally hate the film, but it actually wasn't that bad - for a chick flick and for being a book turned into a film.

Obviously there was a lot that wasn't included in the film and some things were different. In my opinion the book was more tragic: Spoiler Alert! - Highlight below to read!


*The Cage
*A lot of the main characters were left out - Ingrid, Ben (and the whole hunting for drugs scenario) Kimy - damn shame
*Kendrick - the story how Henry finds him is different in the film - less tragic
*The ending flashback is different
*What happens to his legs is more tragic in the book


End Spoiler Alert!

Even though none of that was included, I didn't leave feeling unfulfilled (as I was with Silence of the Lambs). I now think Eric Bana is a hottie and the other girl played Claire v well.

One of the little girls was a right minger though.

8/10
