Overall a good movie
It was a good movie, i honestly think that it had a few scenes that had slight gore was there such as, well that would be a spolier, but i suggest you watch it. The most sexual content is when it shows they're rears and when they make out (even though the lady got pregent it didn't show anything)

Read The Book First
I read the book and want to see this movie. I think it should be iffy for 14 because (if it follows the book) there is a lot of sex and drugs involved. Also some swearing. Very good book though!! P.S. The rating is for the BOOK! NOT the movie! :)

A bit confusing, but definitely a must see for anyone 13+
It was kind of confusing at the beginning, but you get into it eventually. VERY sad, I bought kleenex at walmart first, and it's a good thing I did! My friend and I went to see it, and loved it. Definitely for romantics. You do see the back of a naked man, and two people are implied having sex (lying in a bed, but covered by sheets). A pregnant woman is in the bathtub, but you just see from the neck up, and her belly above the water. A man has a vasectomy. Really, not too bad. I mean, there has been worse. Henry and Clare are great role models, it definitely shows how love can work if people make it. The two would definitely do anything for each other. There is blood, as she miscarries, but there's eventually a beautiful little baby, and it's all good. Oh, until Henry gets shot in the side and you see his bleeding body a couple of times. Frostbitten black foot. Some scenes might be a bit scary for younger kids (like my little sister would think it was gross when he gets shot and everything). Definitely for anyone 13+. Part of the issue: I'm not sure anyone under 13 could follow the plot well enough. I had a little trouble, even. And I'm usually good about that type of thing.

I really love this movie. I love the book as well. This is one of the best film adaptations of a book that I've ever seen. Whoever gave this two stars is frickin' retarded in a stupid way.

Great movie.
GREAT MOVIE! Tear jerking but good. Some partial nudity, but nothing to worry about. The time traveler and his wife share a few passionate kissing scenes involving them laying on a bed but not much more than that. A movie you must see!
