The Rum Diary Movie Review

For those familiar with the legend of Hunter S. Thompson, you will realize that the Rum Diary is a true reflection of it. . This movie is written by Bruce Robinson from the novel by Hunter S. Thompson. In this movie, Johnny Depp takes up the on screen role of Thompson with ease which can make many people admire him. He acts as Paul Kemp who coincidentally is an aspiring novelist who is assigned work in Puerto Rico. As days go by, he teams up with Sala and powerful American businessman named Sanderson. It’s due to this partnership that he finds himself being absorbed into living a wealthy lifestyle which but finds himself absorbed in as much rum as his own Neighborhood. A clear movie reviews on the Rum Diary movie reveals that its cast is top notch. All the actors in the movie are people with a lot of acting experience between them. Also the supporting players make it look more attractive and entertaining. A simple movie review would describe the Rum diary as a pretty-low proof move. It has only a handful of funny moments and quite a few wild ones. It is a kind of money that should definitely have used more of weirdness but fails the test. I could rate this movie at 8/10.
