Watch The Time Traveler’s Wife Description
In “The Time Traveler’s Wife,” Eric Bana played the role of a guy named Henry who can travel through time, the only problem he faced was that he can’t control where or when he is going. The other problem is also that he can’t control how he would be able to get back, apart from for when he tries definite tricks to place himself in a state of mind to time-travel.
In this case also there is no way to assure which version of Henry will show up: the same one who left or a younger or older version of him. Moreover, the only constant which exists is that when he shows up at his destination, he is always nude. Somehow, Henry has found time between all his travels to hit the gym.
Hunky is a frustrating guy to fall in love with, or even date. But Rachel McAdams’ character, Clare, must be made of stronger material than the rest of us, because not only does she tolerate Henry’s pesky inconsistency, but also she believes he is her fate, and that he has been since the first time she saw him as a gifted 6-year-old girl.
Really, director Robert Schwentke’s film is based on the Audrey Niffenegger best-seller, breezes over the fact that Clare and Henry’s meet-cute is more like a meet-creepy. Also, he doesn’t freak her out at all, seemingly because she knows, even at this caring age, that she is cosmically meant to be with this much-older man.
It may be the case that it is more reasonable on the written page. Also, it may be that the viewer just has to be a desperate passionate, and eager to close off the part of the brain that craves logic, to like this. But peculiarly, in the script from Bruce Joel Rubin (an Oscar winner for “Ghost”), the time-travel gimmick in fact supersedes any sort of substance, deepness or personality.
