This 1998 surrealist adventure comedy is based upon the book by Hunter Thompson. In it 2 men go on a prolonged bender in Las Vegas experimenting with various drugs. The main character, played by Johnny Depp, is a gonzo news reporter and is covering a dirt bike race in the desert. This is a poignant statent about both the mind-altering capabilities & sometimes potentially hazardous ingredients of psychoactive chemicals. I very much enjoyed this film. I give it a 5 out 5.
