Hunter s Thompson is my favorite author and Johnny Depp has adapted his stories to the big screen admirably. I enjoy the escape from reality and hope the rest of Hunter's books will be developed into movies as well. Great locations, fun movie...enjoy!

This movie had some interesting elements such as lovely cinematography, colorful characters, and a few lively scenes; however, it fell a bit short on plot eliciting the feeling that this has all been done, maybe to the point where the story lacked a sense of truthfulness. The authentic setting and the funny bits do make it a worthwhile view. If one must choose from the lesser of two evils, let it be this.

Pretty boring but with Depp it's always been hit and miss. A good one or two movies, then a poor one and the cycle continues. Hopefully he won't make any new sequels either-Pirates types get old, fast!
