Fear and loathing in las vegas

[adept_ninja]

Alright I just watched this movie and it was awesome but I have no clue what its about. At first I thought he went to Las Vegas to kill someone who ripped him off then I realize he goes there to write a story. What exactly happened in this movie?

He goes there to cover the endurance race and to find the American dream.

I appreciate that movie mostly for the end where they have flashbacks of what happened after the took the adrenaline. Anyone who has woke up from an intense night of drinking/drugs to find your place trashed, cuts on your arms and legs, mysterious welts on your face, puke everywhere, etc., you can relate to the movie.

What? No. We can't stop here. This is bat country.

Perhaps you should pick up the book. It makes the movie a lot more enjoyable.

Yeah I want to read the book it seems like it might make some more sense of the movie .

yeah the book guys, am I right?? :rolleyes :(




Few of the scenes are a little excessive in their effort to try and give the viewer the feel. Johnny Depp and Benicio Del Toro are good in it. The movie is very enjoyable until you've seen it way too many times.

One of my favorite movies of all time.
Pick up "Where the Buffalo Roam"
Its also about HST, only it makes even less sense, and Bill Murray plays HST.
HST is one of my idols, and my favorite author :)
