A beautifully brought-together piece from a fragmental mind, and one that sticks out still. The book is way better but this was a good run.

It’s a bit silly, but it’s a hilarious satire of drug addiction, with brilliant and unique cinematography.

This movie is one big psychedelic trip, it won't make sense unless you've experimented with mind altering substances.

It may not be perfect, but it’s a hilarious film to watch with friends, especially if you’re a fan of Terry Gilliam and Johnny Depp.
