Movie: "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" (1998)



Hahah, gosh. Actually the first time I watch the whole movie. Last time I fell asleep or something, this was a couple of years ago. Anyways. I big laughter. The story takes place in Vegas, where Raoul Duke (Johnny Depp) and his laywer Dr. Gonza (Benicio Del Toro) is, in purpose of writing a piece on a sports event that is taking place there. You see, Daoul Duke has a doctoral degree in journalism (something he upholds for a couple of times). So, going to Las Vegas in press purposes isn't all that simple. To make things less complicated, Raoul and Dr. Gonza has "prepared" themselves for the trip by getting a shitload(!) of drugs, and renting nice convertable. So, they're on the road. Once they get to Vegas, one (hysterical funny) mishap crosses another. Mescaline, acid, ether, you name it. It's gonna get wild, really out of control, for everyone involved.
