By far and away the wierdest movie I've ever seen. This movie is dark, confusing and plain sick. The dialogue is confusing as hell and the cinematography will make you sick. The only that saves this movie is the SUPERB acting by Johnny Depp. Benicio Del Toro isn't bad either but Depp is really the key part to this film. I laughed EXTREMELY hard at 2 or 3 parts in the movie and the rest of the time I sat with my mouth open staring at the screen dumbfounded that someone actually made this film. For those of you who have seen Trainspotting, think how dark that film can get at times then multiply it tenfold and you get this movie. I'd say the merry-go round bar is the best scene in the film and the worst is the rest of the movie. I would not recommend this movie unless you are planing on drinking heavily or really love "the effect of drugs" movies.
