Vice proves to be a funny, well-acted portrait of former Vice President Dick Cheney, but its wayward characterizations and meandering plot hold it back from cinematic excellence.

Dick Cheney and his wife debate running for Vice Presidency through Shakespearean dialogue as a demonstration of a conversation no one knows anything about in a movie that claims to be a true story from the director of Talladega Nights and Step Brothers.

Not as taut, funny or involving as McKay's own The Big Short, this is still superior fare delivered by a very strong cast. And it will probably angry up your blood quite nicely.

I thought this was effectively good overall. I loved Adam McKays work in The Big Short and this felt very much like it. Those expecting your typical political drama will be turned off by McKays artistic directing for sure though. It doesn’t go into grave detail on a few things but meh. Bale completely disappears in his character and the supporting cast is also very solid. Obviously your political views will determine what you think of this. I think? I would have enjoyed it regardless.

Left leaning and do the research andfound out at least half of the movie is completely fabricated crap. The acting as always is outstanding with Christian Bale leading the way that is the reason I even bothered to watch this. The liberal have so much hatred for republicans and they love rewriting history to suit there agenda.

Christian Bale’s performance gets a solid 9.5 out of 10. His physical and verbal and psychological embodiment and presence as Dick Cheney is mind blowing; brilliance. Everything else about it is kind of an overdirected and overedited mess, trying to tell way too chronologically broad a story in two hours with a million annoying voiceovers and cutaways and photo montages and monologuing to camera and fake endings and other stuff that screams “THIS IS A MOVIE!!” at you over and over and over

It claims to focus on accuracy, and while that's true of the key moments, it far too often relies on turning these people into caricatures. It becomes inaccurate in character motivations and plays up the comedy a bit too much sometimes. Some more scenes would have benefited greatly from taking themselves seriously, but are played for a laugh instead. I do think the portrayal of Cheney's family was done really well however and is the highlight of the movie for me.

Real choppy, one minute we've watched the Mission Accomplished speech and the next Rummy is getting axed for reasons we know but the film needed to pad out further. Bale sneers his way through his performance and Rockwell is bang on the money. I did enjoy the framing mechanism with the narrator but the film felt impeded on by the director, almost but not as much as a Lars von Trier film. There was a large left leaning slant to the portrayal generally if you're into that kind of thing.

Feels like a more expensive biopic version of a Moore documentary, very scattershot and angry. Bale is great but Rockwell was born to play Bush and it's kind of a shame it's in this. McKay goes overboard with the gimmickry that was already a bit much in TBS, especially the last scene which just ended everything on a sneering note. If it's not a detailed miniseries you might as well make a movie about Senator Armstrong from MGS, or a light satire about an American werewolf eating Iraqi hearts.

Vice President Cheney is kind of a Dick you say? Seriously though, it's a good try given the lack of information available. There is less humour here than in The Big Short and that hurts the film. The cast do a good job though.

Difficult for me to evaluate objectively as a movie, since the subject matter is one of the most horrific episodes in modern American history, from which the country has still not recovered. I think the glib tone does the subject a disservice, minimizing the horror. Still, an entertaining enough flick, I suppose.

Oh the potential. The cast is excellent, as is the makeup. My main issues were with Adam McKay’s directing and script, yet somehow he received Oscar nominations for both of these. The film is far from subtle, tonally inconsistent because of the slightly comedic editing (also nominated), and far too long (and as a result, mostly slow). I would’ve preferred a short documentary at that point as I would’ve learned just as much but in a shorter period of time.

Relies far too much on viewer reaction/memory with way, way too much exposition through the narrator and text. Focusing on a specific period with the occasional flashback would have been more engrossing. Instead this feels like a book report. Donald Rumsfeld was actually the more interesting character; Cheney did too much deep thinking with the majority of the interesting things about him shown in the exposition mentioned above. Fav scene: Cheney meeting w/Bush @ ranch.

Christian Bale and Sam Rockwell are fantastic. They took a slightly interesting story and made it so I couldn't turn away. The underlying sarcasm works well with the political tone. Very good movie.

fiziksel medyanın düşüşüne tepki olarak mckay "director's commentary"yi interaktif olarak filme sokmuş herhalde. big short'taki kurgu rejiminin artık kendi tahammül sınırına ulaşmış olması bir yana içerik açısından da çiğ kalıyor anlatı. mckay, hayatı siyaset olmasına rağmen gündem ve ilişkili kavramlara olan savsak ilgisiyle ortaya atılan biri gibi adeta. ister bıkkınlığın ister farksızlığın göstergesi olsun, reaksiyoner eleştiri fuzuli.

Robbed of the Best Actor Oscar, Bale shines as the ever ruthless Cheney. However, the film's structure is its own villain as it suffers from uneven editing, tone & pacing. It manages to pick up the pace during Cheney's tenure as VP. The dramatic irony regarding the Iraq War was frustrating to watch, only in regards to the chaos that it created within the region. I'd argue it would have a been a more focused and biting film had it focused solely on his Vice years.

McKay's recent films are tough pills to swallow. They make you really angry. This one is no different. The acting is just superd, editing is great. Moving through so many different eras and never getting confusing is respectable. A decent film once again.

Vice is an indulgence on McKay's part that lacks narrative focus, has pacing issues, and ultimately only serves as a mere reminder of Cheney's responsibility for the Iraq War. That said, Bale's performance was impressive, as was Carell, Rockwell and the entire cast's. There is a sense of expositing how America got into the political nonsense it's in now, but this never really picks up. The writing is solid with the comedic moments being great, though there are equally as many dull scenes ones.
