Review of The Rum Diary (2011) by Dcedmonds — 13 Nov 2014
"The Rum Diary" 10 Scale Rating: 6.5 (Decent) ...
The Good: Zany and outlandish, "The Rum Diary" is entertaining from start to finish. Just like in "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas", Depp plays a character who is essentially Hunter S. Thompson himself and pulls it off with ease.
The Bad: Even though you expect it from a movie like this, it seems to lack a plot at all and at times is flat out random. Like I said, it was entertaining ... but ... not an instant classic or remotely deep.
