From Oscar-winning director Alex Gibney and producer Graydon Carter comes a probing look into the uncanny life of national treasure and gonzo journalism inventor Dr. Hunter S. Thompson. A fast moving, wildly entertaining documentary with an iconic soundtrack, the film addresses the major touchstones in Thompson's life - his intense and ill fated relationship with the Hell's Angels, his near-successful bid for the office of sheriff in Aspen in 1970, the notorious story behind the landmark Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, his deep involvement in Senator George McGovern's 1972 presidential campaign, and much more. Narrated by Johnny Depp. MPAA Rating: R

As a person that grew up obsessing over Hunter Thompson's work, I think this documentary suffers the same shortcomings that Thompson himself did, in that they focus on the "Character" of Thompson rather than the real man. But then again I guess that would not make for a good movie I suppose. Despite my own personal hang-ups with it, this documentary is still a wild Harley trip of entertainment and touching moments.

Hunter was one of a kind. The world seems a bit colder without him. We miss you Hunter.

Thank you Hunter. We miss you.
