This was one of the worst films I've seen since the Road to Wellville. It's sad that Altman had to leave this as his last film. From the get-go, the movie gives the impression that Keillor woke up one morning and said, "I want to make a movie version of my radio show, but with a lot less jokes and really bad music. We'll just stick a camera behind the stage most of the time, and make Guy Noir an actual guy who works for the show. Yeah, that'll be good." Garrison, you shoulda done some focus group testing on this one. I LOVE your radio show, but some things that are great for one medium don't translate so well to another.
