As a dedicated Kurt Vonnegut fan, and a skeptic to how well his books might transfer to the screen, I felt it was as good as it could have been.
Bruce Willis, a fan of I'm not, gave one of his best performances. Of course the acting was unnatural, the story was unnatural--a stylized, surrealist freakout, as the book was. Though I think it would have been better served set in the 70's, when the book was written, the actors did a good job with a very challanging script. My only dissappointment was that the ending wasn't incoherent ENOUGH. Anyone who has trouble understanding it should read (or reread) the book, or perhaps just expand their conciousness past linear thinking.
