 READ THE BOOK FIRST!!! September 8, 2010
Albie (Lancs)
This is a lovely film which I have seen several times now but I can't help feeling that the reason I like it so much is because it brings back the emotions of the book which was SO enthralling. If I had seen the film first, I would not have been so emotionally drawn as the character development and gripping convoluted plot is just not there in the film. I couldn't put the book down, was in tears many times and the ending is more satisfying than the film ending, although I can understand why they changed it, it just wouldn't have flowed well to make a tidy movie ending. Don't spoil this wonderful book by watching the film and losing the suspense of the story, which is immense, you'd be cheating yourself out of a rare delight. Once you've read the book and want to enjoy the story again when you haven't got much time, THEN enjoy the film.
 Loved it! September 8, 2010

The Time Traveler's Wife is my favorite book. I didn't get around to seeing the film at the time of release and so recently decided to make the purchase despite all of the negative reviews. I can't say I was disappointed.
If you're a fan of the book I think the best way to approach the film is without too many expectations. Accept that it will be different and that a lot of the book will have been cut out. It's a complex plot and so I think it's fair to expect that the film may take a different approach and focus only on key points. My advice would be to just take the film for what it is.
Personally I enjoyed it and like the book it still had me in tears at the end. Sure it was different, characters were cut out and the structuring was (understandably) different. The film centres mainly upon the love story between Claire and Henry and in my opinion is an honest if not slightly different portrayal of Niffenegger's original novel.
Enjoy it and don't get too bogged down with expectations if you're a fan of the book!
Fabulous! August 19, 2010

As someone who fell asleep while reading the book I was interested in how I would find the film. The answer is that I thoroughly enjoyed it. It was romantic, warm, mystifying and well-structured. I heartily recommend it.
Better than the book August 13, 2010

Having read the book, I found the film far more enjoyable.
I found when reading the book, I needed to go back over parts of it, to understand where the story was and where Henry and Claire were.
The film made the story easier to follow and I loved the ending. It had more feeling to it and left you feeling Henry could still appear at any time in the future. It left you with hope and claire with hope.
