Sets off really well and faithful to the book. I like the narrative style, too. Bleichert and Blanchard have been cast wonderfully. Unfortunately, the movie proceeds to speed things up clumsily while trying to preserve much of the story and the dialogue from the book, which feels often surreal. At the same time, valuable plot points, character motivations and sub-plots are lost from the novel, causing the first-viewer a lot of confusion.
As they always say, the book is better than the movie, and this is no exception. I can imagine that for somebody who hasn't read the book this movie might disappoint even more.
