I found it intriguing. I hear it's pretty faithful to the book.

But, does the FILM make sense?

yes and no
actually no. if you have 2 complete reproductive systems and you have a baby with your egg and your sperm the baby is not your identical twin. it is a fraternal twin with a high likelyhood of having multiple birth defects. you could create the same baby everytime you go through the time loop but that baby has to grow up to be her own mom so the mom cannot be identical to the grown up baby.|
the face transplant and psychosis stuff does work out correctly

I haven't read the book, but apparently it's better explained there.

I just felt they spent way too much time in the bar and then rushed all of the rest that it just didn't make much sense as a MOVIE.
