Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas 1998
I have yet to read the source material from Hunter S. Thompson, so I am solely basing my review on the movie itself.

A different kind of difficult watch, in that you’re stuck in the world of Andrew, a smug musician who seems to think he’s better than everyone else after catching a single lucky break. And yet, you still can’t help but feel sorry for him when Fletcher humiliates him in the third act.
But the performances Miles Teller and J.K. Simmons gave were quite stellar.
