Movie Reviews of Where the Buffalo Roam

Movie Review: Hunter S. Thompson
Summary: 5 Stars

Here's a writer of a different breed, someone who speaks mind even if it is off topic, he did make it come around again to make both ends meet. The story is great, and Bill Murray does an excellent job portraying Hunter.
Johnny Depp in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas was another great portrayal of Hunter and both do justice.
" The only difference between the Sane and the Insane, is IN and yet within this world, the Sane have the power to have the Insane locked up." Hunter S. Thompson

Summary of Where the Buffalo Roam

Gonzo journalist hunter s. Thompson covers nixon and the 1972 super bowl with his manic lawyer lazlo. Studio: Uni Dist Corp. (mca) Release Date: 08/01/2006 Starring: Bill Murray Bruno Kirby Run time: 98 minutes Rating: R Director: Art Linson

Bill Murray is in his early-career, shambling glory as Hunter S. Thompson, the gonzo journalist with a fondness for Wild Turkey and firearms. While Murray does not do as exact an impersonation of Thompson as Johnny Depp (in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas), he does capture Thompson's dazed, anarchic nature. Unfortunately, the movie around him is just anarchic: a series of episodes (true or invented) from Dr. Thompson's career, circa 1968-72. The haphazard structure is probably meant to suggest the spirit of the counterculture or something, but it's just flabby storytelling. Thanks to Murray's blissful delivery, there are scenes that have a stoned giddiness to them: Thompson and his attorney (Peter Boyle) terrifying an unsuspecting hitchhiker, or Thompson alone in a men's room with Richard Nixon. Neil Young contributes some music, and Murray warbles "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" while drunkenly piloting a plane. --Robert Horton
