Genre:
This documentary is a probing look into the uncanny life of national treasure and gonzo journalism inventor Dr. Hunter S. Thompson. Fast moving, wildly entertaining and with an iconic soundtrack, the film addresses the major touchstones in Thompson's life--his intense and ill fated relationship with the Hell's Angels, his near-successful bid for the office of sheriff in Aspen in 1970, the notorious story behind the landmark "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas," his deep involvement in Senator George McGovern's 1972 presidential campaign, and much more. Johnny Depp narrates.

Our critics review will be added soon.
Very good, he's a weirdly entertaining man.
Crazy, weird, American!
sorry but i vote for twilight
A must for any Hunter S fan. Brilliantly put together, especially the final few minutes. Truly fitting for an icon.
A rather conventional film of an unconventional man, underwhelming (though good music!)
An interesting intro to the life of Thompson. There's nothing particularly new if you know the man, but taken as an intro or a reminder - a worthy effort.
