IT's not that the acting was bad, I agree it was excellent. It was quite humorous in the beginning, but later was not funny, which isn't a problem. However, I felt that when the film decided to lose all direction, it became juvenile drug fest. I was not that interested in watching two madmen do every drug under the sun, only in order to break things, destroy hotels, hang around with barbra streisand portrait painters, and scare the Los Vegas Locals. If anything, the idea of doing all this seems somewhat humorous, but it was actually somewhat disgusting, seeing them binge every drug, vomit constantly, try to kill each other etc.. I suppose some people dig the fragmented drug binge movie, where the characters wake up not knowing what happened last night and not knowing what's going to happen today, but that's not my bag. And don't give me bullshit about, "It's the American Dream", because that was not a theme of the movie at all, it was just something the lunatic said while riding around a carousal.
