Vice Reviews

Interesting story with a strong lead squandered by unnecessary fourth wall breaks and caricature. Goes out of its way to make Cheney/Rumsfeld look comic book villains when the real story makes them look bad enough. Bush especially is SNL tier parody.

Genuinely don't know how many more films like this some of you fuckers need, to open your eyes and actually think for once. 3/5

We all know the type of crimes America has committed in and out of its borders but I wish this showed the true extent of how power-mad 'politicians' get their way through manipulation and brainwashing. It does a great job in certain areas, but the 'humour' bends this beast of a biopic into a light-hearted and loving skit. I finished it feeling somewhat patriotic, which shouldn't be the case, I'm not even American. Hundreds of 'Dicks' exist today because the horrors of greed and war aren't truly understood by the public. I love how the editing and portrayals interact with us and how it shows the insignificance of life to death. "Beware the quiet man. For while others speak, he watches. And while others act, he plans. And when they finally rest…he strikes"

I still love you Adam McKay

Very interesting to see the inside of the American government and crazy to see how people manipulate rules and regulations while running the country. The cast was just fantastic and Christian bale continues to amaze me in everything he’s in

I share a birthday with both Christian Bale and Cheney, I never know whether or not to be proud or ashamed

Good story, if the narrator was a reliable narrator.

Watched it with @luke.

pretty good movie. I love all the cuts to historic footage to give you a sense of the time. It definitely felt like I was watching art. I had no idea Dick Cheney was so powerful.

its alright
6/10

77/100

Cheney aura

It was decent

Since I never knew who Cheney was, I just watched what felt like overweight Christian Bale the whole time. This made Bush feel like a puppet, and Cheney’s wife feel like the real power hungry person

Making a biopic about a vice president seems like a pretty boring idea but the end result was absolutely amazing. Christian Bale by no surprise gives a phenomenal performance.

8/10 Incredible Cast, regarding the true (told with disbelief but keeping as close to fact where possible) both unbelievable evil couple and a lazy president allowing to be manipulated, the devastating could have been prevented if followed the original intelligence. Recommend.

3/5

Wow

Wow, what a bunch of pieces of shit!

Amazing critique of American politics and society. The will of the many is defined by the will of the few.
