I probably shouldn’t even comment on this movie because I lost interest in it quickly and wasn’t paying much attention to it by the end, but here goes…In case you can’t tell, I didn’t really like this film. The acting was fine–you can’t go wrong with Johnny Depp or Benecio Del Toro (I like saying “Benecio Del Toro”, so I’ll say it again, “Benecio Del Toro”).
The movie was based off a book by Hunter S. Thompson. The book is supposed to be semi-autobiographical. Not that it really matters, I guess. There wasn’t really much of a plot. The two main characters were in a drug-induced haze for the entire length of the movie (two hours). Not much else happened. If that’s your idea of entertainment, you’re going to love this film.
