    ok I just saw this movie for the first time last night at a friends house when we were smoking out and let me just say it totally blew my mind!!! The way that you see what they're seeing on the trips and stuff it's just totally crazy and then it sucks you into the trip then cuts back to reality or a previous scene and it's crazy. Not to mention Johnny Depp and Benicio Del Toro are AMAZING.

    I think Depp is a really good actor for drug movies haha, like Blow, that was a good one too.

    oh, i never read the book, so i dont know, sometimes it is disappointing when you read the book before you see the movie.

    i think it was a pretty good adaption of the book for visuals.... i havent seen the ending of the movie..but i still thought it worked quite well...the book is much more fun thou...but it would be a hard film to make when the story is so loud and dynamic and crazy hazy wow!

    I agree, it never gets old. And every time i watch it i get something else out of it. I've watched it at least a hundred times this year.
