Review of Vice (2018)

By Kimberley Jones (866) for Austin Chronicle (7,653) on 20 Dec 2018

McKay has made a protest film, plainly seething – a primal howl from a guy who used to just goose howls of laughter…

Review of Vice (2018)

By Anne Brodie (132) for What She Said (131) on 20 Dec 2018

Adam McKay's film gets the points across but it's a cool, distant experience resulting in a sharp, cut and dried list of bad deeds by a deeply…

Review of Vice (2018)

By Matthew Passantino (89) for Big Picture Big Sound (482) on 20 Dec 2018

What plagues Vice is a screenplay that's uncertain of its own central thesis…

Review of Vice (2018)

By Kyle Smith (1,916) for National Review (314) on 20 Dec 2018

Blinded by his need to make sure you really, really get that Cheney is evil, McKay has characters just spell it out for you, as though putting…

Review of Vice (2018)

By Ann Hornaday (1,919) for Washington Post (9,851) on 19 Dec 2018

Structurally, Vice is a mess, zigging here and zagging there, never knowing quite when to end, and when it finally does, leaving few penetrating…

Review of Vice (2018)

By Kelly Vance (1,015) for East Bay Express (1,012) on 19 Dec 2018

Vice just lies there dead as a hooked Wyoming trout anyway…

Review of Vice (2018)

By Peter Travers (3,602) for Rolling Stone (4,035) on 19 Dec 2018

In Vice, the writer-director is tossing grenades every which way — it’s a movie that’s ferociously funny one minute, bleakly sorrowful the next…

Review of Vice (2018)

By Laura Clifford (2,742) for Reeling Reviews (4,376) on 19 Dec 2018

While the multiple story lines and complex subject of his last were buoyed by McKay's amusing financial explanatory asides, his use of the…

Review of Vice (2018)

By Robin Clifford (1,670) for Reeling Reviews (4,376) on 19 Dec 2018

I am very familiar with Cheney and his checkered past, so Vice was just a checklist for me…

Review of Vice (2018)

By Glenn Heath Jr. (311) for San Diego CityBeat (181) on 19 Dec 2018

For long stretches, it's a striking example of brutal American self-reflection from a time when very little of that existed…

Review of Vice (2018)

By Betty Jo Tucker (725) for ReelTalk Movie Reviews (1,771) on 19 Dec 2018

Christian Bale managed to project a Dick Cheney aura, but Sam Rockwell really convinced me he was George W. Bush…

Review of Vice (2018)

By Christopher Lloyd (287) for The Film Yap (559) on 19 Dec 2018

Despite brilliant performances by Christian Bale and Steve Carell, Vice is a heavy-handed takedown of Dick Cheney that sacrifices satire for…

Review of Vice (2018)

By Francesca Rudkin (294) for New Zealand Herald (729) on 19 Dec 2018

It's edgy, good fun and to this day the subject and his legacy remain relevant and controversial…

Review of Vice (2018)

By Michael O'sullivan (1,712) for Washington Post (9,851) on 19 Dec 2018

Structurally, Vice is a mess, zigging here and zagging there, never knowing quite when to end, and when it finally does, leaving few penetrating…

Review of Vice (2018)

By Nate Adams (71) for The Only Critic (71) on 18 Dec 2018

Christian Bale is the gold standard here and he propels Adam McKay's wild biopic with fierce electricity. One of my favorite films of 2018…

Review of Vice (2018)

By Norman Wilner (961) for NOW Toronto (1,621) on 18 Dec 2018

There's just not much here besides repeated howls of outrage at Cheney's disregard for protocol, transparency and common decency as he shifted…

Review of Vice (2018)

By Ignatiy Vishnevetsky (836) for AV Club (2,778) on 18 Dec 2018

Apart from one initially funny (but ultimately over-extended) gag involving a fake credits sequence, the material is mostly glib and second-rate—and,…

Review of Vice (2018)

By Julian Roman (454) for MovieWeb (460) on 18 Dec 2018

Vice is a wickedly funny, brilliantly satirical black comedy. Christian Bale needs to clear space on the shelf for another Oscar…

Review of Vice (2018)

By Brian Lowry (913) for CNN.com (607) on 18 Dec 2018

It's a character study of a man imbued with a guiding vision of his own greatness that, finally, yields a somewhat scattered, just-OK movie…

Review of Vice (2018)

By Chris Feil (37) for Filmmixtape (19) on 18 Dec 2018
