No point in mentioning these bats, I thought. Poor bastard will see them soon enough….
This movie seems to change you, it is a spinning whirl of confusion with moments of clarity. If you have read the book you will know that this movie attempts to capture the same excitement and mayhem created within it’s pages, and it doesn’t do a bad job. Basically, if you don’t get it, don’t bother thinking about it. It will boggle your mind and leave you senseless. I can honestly say that I am never bored, and fully enthralled, every single time I watch this film. Title actors Johnny Depp & Benicio Del Toro do just amazing work as they are thrown into three days of drug filled bliss. Hunter S. Thompson is definitely a creative genius.
This is my first 5/5 to be recognized in this blog and is a must see for any Hunter S. Thompson fan. Also to be watched by anyone, if you know whats good for you.
My opinion: 5/5, I could watch this movie all day long.
Notes: Go ahead and argue with me about this being a 5/5. It is a rating of my personal satisfaction, not if I think its a film the masses would enjoy, though it should be at least given a try.
