Ratings and reviews

You'd be well advised to read the original book and read up on Hunter S. Thompson before watching the film adaptation of Fear and Loathing. But given how tricky the film must have been to script, it does capture both the dark and the amusing sides of the original, and is very quotable. As your lawyer, I advise you to watch this film.

Love this movie even better when your stoned as you can get into the movie better and it's so funny from start to finish now gonna try and get the book to read as I've heard it's,better than the movie

The book is a classic, impossible to make into a film (I thought) but this makes an excellent go at it. Drugs and wild times in Las Vegas. A really good film
