The Time Traveler's Wife

A solid time travel romance. The girls central but quite small roles, not something you remember for long afterwards.

As even the title of the movie suggests, this is a cross between romance and time travel. The combination actually works well. When your partner can disappear at any moment, or you've met him when he was older and he doesn't recognize you yet, it brings an abundance of complex relationship questions. And not even death needs to be final.
Brooklynn plays the main character's wife Clare when she's 9, and first meets her future husband Henry, who is already an adult. The story follows Clare's life linearly, with her husband disappearing and re-appearing randomly. They have a child Alba, who inherits his father's time travel ability, but has control over it. This results one of the cutest time-travel scenes of all times, where Alba is playing with her younger self.

Tatum and her big sister Hailey play Alba in different ages. They and Brooklynn are very cute and appealing, perfectly suited for a romantic movie. The roles are important for the movie, but limited in their size, totaling five to ten minutes per actress.
Production values are high, the acting is solid, and makers have had a strong grasp of both genres, resulting in an enjoyable amalgamation.
