Movie Review - Slaughterhouse-Five

Take Billy Pilgrim, our hero. And take him on a trip along his life. Travelling in time. OK, so we're in the realms of science fiction and we're staying there. The majority of Pilgrims travels we get to see are parts of his life when he was a GI who was captured during World War 2.

He's unlucky enough to get sent to Dresden and be there when it got bombed by the allies. (If it had nothing military there, WHY were they bombing it?). You get to see him travel to his childhood and even to the moment of his own death.

He's also abducted by sex obsessed aliens who just want to watch him mating. I haven't read the book so I can't compare the 2 but the film is good, It kept me glued to the story all the way through. Well worth a look.
