Review of Where the Buffalo Roam (1980) by Scott L — 21 Oct 2009
Where do the buffalo roam, out on the plains I guess. This is an entertaining film. It isn't great but far from bad. It is based on Hunter Thompson so is entertaining and a little wierd, I think first time Director Linson manages to get the job done. The acting of Murray and Boyle is very good as well, I am a fan of both so that helps.
Where it fails is that Fear and Laothing came out and did everything better. This is sort of Like The Evil Dead to Loathing being Evil Dead II sort of the same thing but better.
This movie is worth watching if a fan of Thompson or Murray or a fan of an intelligent (sort of)drug comedy. I've seen it a few times and it holds up well over time so that is another sign of quality!
