I love every actor and actress in this movie....but....uh wow this is awful
This film tells the story of a poet who lives a very hedonistic life in Florida.
I can't believe what I just watched. The characters are unlikable, and even repulsive. Their behaviour is consistently reckless and irresponsible. They live wasted lives, and they wasted my life too. The film is truly horrid, even though there are so many big names in it.

McConaughey does his hazy best but I think these guys were so wasted they forgot they were making a movie.
I've seen people write that they expected a comedy. Even if labelled that way, this movie wasn't that. I knew guys like this (just not rich) back in the 70s. A lot of them you would meet, spend some time with, and they would just move on. The music fits the 70-80s era better. This movie seems to be more of an "expression" of a certain character you might run into.
There is no real success or failure to this movie, it's just there . I think that if you go into it with expectations of something else you probably won't enjoy it.

Wow, this movie was terrible. Nothing redeeming, interesting or entertaining unless you like to watch MM playing a drunk stoner.
I guess, he's a believable stoner, as is Snoop, but there's basically no story. Just scene after scene of drinking and toking. Arthouse garbage.
