Time Travelers Wife- One Fab Mom Movie Review!


Let me start with saying the book is better. It's hard to compete with the book and this is a hard story to make into a movie! That being said, I loved the movie. I think Rachel McAdams is fabulous and she just makes me bawl. It also made me fall in love with Eric Bana who before now I could care less about! I could really believe they were in love. Great chemistry!

The movie follows the life of Eric as a time traveler and the love story he has with Rachel McAdams character. It's amazing how everything pieces together to tell the full story, that they have known each other since she was a child. It's also a tragic love story, so a slightly happy ending but not really.

It's a tear jerker, and also a chick flick, so don't think your hubby will give it any attention. This is one to rent when he's out! My hubby liked it quite a bit but he also loved the Notebook. He likes a good love story once in a while. Thank goodness!

I am giving it 4 out of 5 cosmos, because if I hadn't read the book I would have liked it less. It was pretty amazing and beautifully shot. Definitely worth seeing!!!

I didn't read the book, but I loved the movie, so did my husband (he also liked The Notebook) yay for us for having husbands who like chick flicks sometimes! :)

I saw this at the theater a little while ago with 2 neighbor girls. We cried! Great chemistry between the two- I agree!! I've got to read the book!
