Hilarious, interesting, and just plain shit bat-crazy. Required watching for any fans of Hunter S Thompson, or just anyone who enjoys film. However, I highly recommend the book as well, the film should not be viewed as a substitute.

This movie is a must watch and a must have imo! One of my all time favorites. Depp and Toro are absolutely brilliant in it. Hard to believe they wasnt actually on drugs during filming tbh but who knows lol.
From beginning to end this is one twisted monster of a film that will never get boring no matter how many times you see it!
