Vice (2018)
The story presents a series of biographical and comedy events about the story of Vice President George W. Bush. That story began with Dick Cheney, a modest bureaucrat from within Washington, who quietly enjoyed enormous powers as Vice President George W. Bush in a period that had an impact on the world. It seems that Dick Cheney has formed the country and the world in ways that have influenced the spirit of the world and its being.

Vice lacks a core thesis behind its gorgeous aesthetics.January 03, 2019
It's one thing to mimic Cheney's speech and mannerisms but Bale goes much further in creating an intriguing anti-hero.January 04, 2019
Now, humor is a fickle and subjective thing, but for the record, I laughed aloud exactly once while watching Vice...More often the film is only embarrassing in its flinging about for novelty.January 07, 2019
Vice worked my last nerve. It's true, I turned on it early, but trust me when I say it did nothing to endear itself to me as it went on.January 04, 2019
Misanthropy rarely gets this unfunny. Here, even Cheney's sullen wiliness looks uninspired.December 26, 2018
In Adam McKay's free-ranging, tone-shifting, darkly funny, super-meta, hit-and-miss, absurdist biopic Vice, Bale nails it as the resilient, backstabbing, front-stabbing, ruthlessly ambitious Cheney.January 06, 2019
What a waste of talented actors and makeup artists. Yes, Bale physically transformed himself, but his Cheney had no passion and could not glue the various bits and pieces of the script together. A definite fail for writer/director Adam McKay.January 04, 2019
It's been a long time since I enjoyed a movie as much as Adam McKay's Vice while also fully understanding why so many people don't like it. [It's a] stylized, grimly funny Dick Cheney biopic.December 26, 2018
Exhilarating but ultimately off-putting... The gleefully scattershot style that gave so much pleasure in The Big Short ill-befits the somber subject of Vice.December 26, 2018
From the man who brought us "The Big Short" comes "Vice," a movie a lot like "The Big Short" that comes up a little short.December 27, 2018
You cannot simply sit and absorb this movie. Love it or hate it, you are one of its characters.January 04, 2019
In theory, there's no reason why this approach shouldn't work -- if the jokes were better and the black comedy was blacker. But McKay isn't really interested in Cheney as anything but a target.
