In many ways, "The Time Traveler's Wife" is just like "The Notebook", and "P.S. I Love You" put together.

The movie's plot is very confusing especially when the child of Henry (Eric Bana) and Clare's (Rachel McAdams) child, Alba is born. I wouldn't want to spoil it so I shouldn't tell you how. Even the special feature where the screenwriters and the actors express their opinions about this movie think the plot is kind of confusing but Rachel McAdams claims that she had to read the book of the same name by Audrey Niffenegger many, many times. So after you watch the movie, it is suggested that you also watch the special feature that comes with it so it is more understandable.
Henry is a "Time-traveler". He time-travels when he's stressed. When he time travels, he doesn't bring his clothes so as he appeared in that time period, he has to get his clothes quick and then figure out where he's at.

And I find it eerily bizarre that a six-year old Clare meets a 30 something year old guy named Henry. Even weirder is that when Clare is 18 and Henry is 30-40 something, they have their first kiss and it's right after he has his vasectomy. A very weird love story going on. And their child, Alba (the conceiving of her is a weird story), reminds me of a scene of "Breaking Dawn" and possesses her dad's "Time-Traveling" genes but in a more controllable manner.

Very weird movie I tell you.
