Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (1998)

"Well. There's two women f**king a polar bear."
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas was a movie I first watched during my experimental phase and I though I didn't remember much, I revered it as great. After a more appropriate viewing, the flaws surrounding this drug orgy were more noticeable but I still did enjoy the experience. This is a rather strange experience. For those familiar with the effects of the drugs consumed by our characters, who're played by Johnny Depp and Benicio Del Toro, there's a visceral anxiety created by the situations they put themselves in. Its laughable at times and more often questionable. There's not much of a plot. There's a cycle that continues throughout the runtimes much like the mind-loop users experience when on acid. If this was intentional I think it's an interesting choice. All-in-all its a worthy watch if you're interested in drug culture or want something to view while tripping.
