Watched the movie for the movie score! but ultimately ended up with big disappointment! worst movie ever i watch! simply waste of time!!Dnt understand about the positive review!

I was eager to buy into the exciting premise that Henry (Eric Bana) is spontaneously traveling to random points in time as I was relishing the boundless possibilities of how time lines can be affected and anticipation of an intricate plot. However, the movie disappointingly left this plot driving potential unrealized largely due to the utterly fatalistic philosophical stance of the author. The potential was boringly killed at the outset when Henry stated that he tried to put his time travel to use but could not alter the events. This relegated him for the rest of the movie to the role of a helpless toy in the hands of these nuisance time leaps. The character without any goal or purpose was hard to relate to or feel for. We saw a series of peculiar oddities (vanishing in thin air) and awkward situations (nude guy trying to find clothes), but we did not witness any real struggle or purpose-driven actions, no effort of the time traveler to use his gift to make a difference. For the lack of the driver, the rest of the plot amounted to a unconvincing retelling of a soap-opera-worthy romantic story. It would have been far more interesting to see Henry try to at least save his mother, rather than boringly stating that he couldn't. He could at least try to tell Clare (Rachel McAdams) while she was a girl and his mom was still alive to call his mom and warn her about the storm and tell her not to drive on that fateful evening. He could have called his mom while in the past. He could have actually told it to her face when he met her on the train three years before the accident. Would she have believed him? Would she have still died despite the prior knowledge – that could have been a thrilling possibility! The movie left me with a sense of unfulfilled promise, wasted potential and disappointment with the passive, fatalistic outlook that this movie projects.

I just watched this movie again, as I do periodically, and each time I am still amazed by the brilliant screen play of Bruce Joel Rubin and the phenomenal performances by Eric Bana and Rachel McAdams! In fact, the casting, production, and performances by all of the actors are extraordinary! If you haven't seen this yet, you must. Although the idea of time traveling may seem ridiculous to some, the story told here and the way it is told is timeless! I dared to dream, I cried, I was touched in the depths of my soul on so many levels. I never tire of watching this one. I would not have believed that a subject such as this could be explored in such a beautiful way. Kudos to all those involved!

You've guessed it! Rachel McAdams is one of my favorite actresses and I adore her movies.To watch this movie, I read the book and it really does have great writing here and there but it wasn't my cup of tea, all I disliked in the book was omitted from the movie. Which really made me love this movie.I don't believe in time traveling as in going-back-to-the-past OR future, but I enjoy the idea so much in fiction. This was the first time I thought of time traveling as nightmarish! It wasn't a joy to watch or experience in theory, it was really painful. But again, I loved Clare's studio, as an artist I love decor and creative spaces.
