Blu-ray Review: The Time Traveler’s Wife, starring Eric Bana and Rachel McAdams
… and that’s why I think The Time Traveler’s Wife works as both as a romance and a fantasy deeply tinged with science-fiction hues.
Wait, were you expecting me to start at the beginning of the review, not at a random point within it’s own structure? Follow along to the beginning of The Rabid One’s journey with this time-bending love story, now out on Blu-ray just in time for Valentine’s Day.
Based on the 2003 novel by Audrey Niffenegger, The Time Traveler’s Wife is the fractured tale of Henry (Eric Bana) and Claire (Rachael McAdams), a pair destined for life-long love battling the hardships that life inevitably delivers. Out of the ordinary here is the fact that Henry suffers from Chrono-Displacement, an odd genetic disorder that randomly drops him out of his current moment and into other times and places. His time-travel allows him to visit his mother before her tragic death and meet his future wife when she’s only a child, but sadly, he has no control over the jumping and this ailment leaves his life fractured.
