Gut reaction. Fear and Loathing. Just a perfect movie. It is pretty faithful to the book, Depp gives an amazing performance so close to the real Hunter it is spooky and the whole thing is just perfect in every way.

Depp was actually really good friends with Thompson and actually lived with hunter for a few years before the filming of the movie so he was kinda the perfect person to cast.

I was always “This movie is such a typical Terry Gilliam piece” thinking the book would be so different. But nope! Terry Gilliam was just the perfect match for that book.
