Descripción

FEAR AND LOATHING IN LAS VEGAS is a whirlwind of a movie, a wacky, drug-laden story backed by a fist-pumping rock & roll soundtrack featuring everything from Wayne Newton and Tom Jones to Combustible Edison and Dead Kennedys. Journalist Raoul Duke (Johnny Depp) heads to Las Vegas to cover a motorcycle race, bringing along his Samoan lawyer, Dr. Gonzo (Benicio Del Toro), in this furious adaptation of the book by Hunter S. Thompson. It is 1971, and Duke and Gonzo are on their way to Sin City with a frightened hitchhiker (a nearly unrecognizable Tobey Maguire) and a trunkful of drugs, which they ingest nonstop. Depp is terrific as Duke, Thompson's alter ego, and Del Toro is a riot as the crazy lawyer. To perfect his Thompsonian performance, Depp spent a lot of time with the good doctor, and it paid off in a film that captures the frenetic pace of the counterculture novel. Director Terry Gilliam, a master of complex, bizarre visual imagery, has a field day interpreting the drug-hazed world in which Duke and Gonzo reside. An all-star cast chimes in with wonderfully offbeat bit parts, including Harry Dean Stanton, Gilliam regular Katherine Helmond, Flea, Cameron Diaz, Ellen Barkin, Christina Ricci, Gary Busey, Lyle Lovett, and others.

Fear and Loathing

Puntos Fuertes: Character portrayl. Realism. Introspection.

Puntos Débiles: Book was in two distinct chapters but movie never relates to the viewer that this is the case. Hence the middle of the movie doesn't quite make sense.

Excellent satire of two deranged men looking to morph from the the drug crazed era of the sixties to what they perceive as the responsibility of the early seventies. They do so with many outlandish drugs, brilliant introspection and bizarre events that they come across. They viewer feels when the movie is over that although much was thought about during the movie, only a little clarity came from...

One Savage Journey

Puntos Fuertes: Great acting all around, Great direction by Terry Gilliam, and one funny movie.

Puntos Débiles: Film is a tad too long for its own good.

Terry Gilliam's 'Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas' is one wild journey to the heart of the American Dream. The film is very enjoyable to watch but suddenly in the middle it drags on a little. The movie is just fun to watch, and very creative.
