Considered unfilmable for decades, Hunter S. Thompson’s literary landmark of psychedelic excess finally met its cinematic match in anarchic visionary director Terry Gilliam (Twelve Monkeys) and two no-holds-barred star performances by Johnny Depp and Benicio del Toro.
Raoul Duke (Depp) and his volatile Samoan attorney Dr. Gonzo (del Toro) are en route to Las Vegas, ostensibly on a banal journalistic assignment, but the suitcase full of psychoactive narcotics in their possession tells another story. Beset by bats, horny lizards and runaway hotel carpet upon their arrival, the pair plunge deeper into the pharmaceutically enhanced neon underbelly of the City of Sin on a chemically charged savage journey to the heart of the American Dream.
Flashback to Gilliam and Thompson’s trip of a lifetime in an exclusive 4K restoration, accompanied by an outstanding selection of bonus material delving into the history of the film and the original book.

Invaluable Boxset
This is definitely one of my favourite films from Terry Gilliam, and this Arrow Blu-Ray alone is worth the price as the visceral colours burst off the screen in perfect quality. The boxset itself surprised me with the amount of content it contains: A double sided poster (medium sized), half a dozen postcards/photographs of the film, even more small scale posters, an additional Blu-Ray documentary that stars both Gilliam and Depp as well as a booklet on the production of the film by various cast & crew over the decades. The box itself is a good material and everything fits well inside; the product is weirdly underpriced, but I doubt anyone is complaining.

Great Arrow Limited Edition Release
I've been waiting for this since a long time back - this is a movie without any particular special edition blu-ray releases; which I think is to bad. But now with this Arrow release you just can't go wrong. It's a fat box set with a small book, a poster, and a double disc relase with new extras just for this limited edition. What more to say? If you love the movie, you'll love this limited edition release!
