    "I’m over the moon about this movie, which smooths out the psychological dissonances in Audrey Niffenegger’s fine novel but is still an emotional workout."—David Edelstein, New York Magazine

    ""The Time Traveler's Wife" falls flat as romance because Henry and Clare are barely more than character cutouts, too thin in personality and emotion to make us care deeply about their weird predicament. They're just pretty snapshots in a haphazard continuum."—Kathleen Murphy, MSN Movies

    "For viewers aching for a romantic drama that leaves them emotionally, honorably exhausted, this could prove a total immersion in star-crossed love, if not perfect synchronicity."—Richard Corliss, TIME Magazine

    "...this is silly sci-fi tosh that tries to play itself out as a serious and heart-rending love story, but Ghost it ain’t."—Cosmo Landesman, The Sunday Times
