    i watched this a while back now, but i just felt like the way he met his wife was sort of dishonest, not to mention the fact that she is a little girl, which is odd. sorry i cant back my argument up because i cant remember why i felt that way

Time Traveling Time Traveler Eric Bana falls in love with Non-Time Traveling Helpless Woman Rachel McAdams. Their relationship is strained because of beautifully written scenarios such as: time traveling miscarriages, secret vasectomies, and a cameo by Dick Cheny as McAdams' dad. I wish I could go back in time and tell myself not to watch this really bad movie.

It's not a perfect film and it's kind of confusing. Rachel McAdams performance is amazing as always though.

I havn't read the book yet,so i dont know when people come and told me that they liked the book more.Actually i also think that the story was kinda awkward with the Sci-Fi things that looks assure here.But overall i love the story and how it could breaking my heart to watch. I dont know if someday i'll get the chance to read the book.But i think you can never compare the feelings you get between reading and watching.
