One of Vonnegut's best, butchered on screen.
24 November 2001
Breakfast of Champions is one of Vonnegut's best novels and it was just butchered. The story is about a man who is suffering from a case of bad chemicals rotting his brain. The movie failed to truly convey the fact that the man was slowly, almost imperceptibly to himself, going insane. The movie succumbed to the Fear and Loathing, overly trippy approach to to a very subtle story. BOC is not Fear and Loathing and should not have been treated as such.
