Our take

One of the great cult films of the 90s (which is saying a lot!), Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is a glorious bad trip into the desert with one of the 20th century’s most prolific writers. Johnny Depp provides an uncanny turn as Hunter S. Thompson in this mind-bending piece of gonzo cinema.
