Could you possibly feel more drugged up while watching any other movie. Depp never seems to amaze me, he may be a bit odd in real life but his characters are flawless. Any one who feels this movie had bad direction... Full review

One of the most different movies I've seen. Did not expect this at all. I guess I just didn't read the synopsis thourough enough, because it did an accurate job of potraying the movie, but this movie was wild. The acting... Full review

One of the best counter culture films of the 1990's. This is one of those movies that you can watch a hundred times, and each time notice somthing completely cool that you hadn't noticed before.... Full review

I trully loved this film. The whole thing was pretty trippy but I really enjoyed it, loved all the lines, the characters, the acting. I loved Johnny Depp's Raoul Duke/Hunter Thompson.... Full review

mesmerizing American comedy of the '90s.....Funny and repulsive, obnoxious yet in some ways pitiable, Depp's performance should kill, once and for all, whatever pretty-boy image he still has left.....Those who complain that the film glorifies its protagonists just aren't paying attention.....The great rebel Terry Gilliam is ideal for this material....Depp and Del Toro bring out the best in each other..... ...
