Vice Ratings & Reviews
Mister Arn
May 20, 2025
It seemed like every time I was getting drawn into the characters, the film broke into an unnecessary narrative.
The Atlantic
Christopher Orr
What is perhaps most remarkable about Bale's and Adams's performances is that they supply depth and nuance to a film whose director appears to have had no appetite for either quality.
Baltimore Magazine
Max Weiss
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.
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
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.
America Magazine
John Anderson
Vice isn't a dishonest movie, exactly. It just enables dishonesty.
Truthdig
Carrie Rickey
Given the present partisan chasm, though, it feels nihilistic to laugh at a movie that so puckishly delights in further polarizing Republicans and Democrats.
Chicago Reader
Leah Pickett
You cannot simply sit and absorb this movie. Love it or hate it, you are one of its characters.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
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.
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
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.
Minneapolis Star Tribune
Chris Hewitt
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.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
The charismatic star is tasked with playing an uncharismatic man, and at times he succeeds too well; it doesn't help that there's virtually no character development across the 132 minutes of "Vice."
NPR
Bob Mondello
Growling, gruff, and grumpy Bale makes the title character a lot like his Batman - basically a psychopath-turned-vigilante.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
Vice just seems content to make supercilious fun of everything, its most pointed barbs not so much directed at Dick Cheney and his enablers so much as they are at the audience itself.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
It's an ugly story of corruption... And it works, both as a comedy and a scathing indictment of Cheney.
leonardmaltin.com
Leonard Maltin
McKay seems to delight in playing with his audience and our expectations, veering from farce to the blackest kind of comedy. Vice manages to be highly entertaining while offering considerable food for thought. That's no small feat.
Salon.com
Gary M. Kramer
It's an irreverent, rollicking story narrated by a guy (Jesse Plemmons) who recounts key episodes from Cheney's life - some amusing, some scary. The tonal shifts in the film are both its blessing and its curse.
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
The film lacks insight, ingenuity, and intensity, skimming the surface of history like a drunk guy at a holiday party who read a Wikipedia entry that he really wants to talk to you about right now.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
"Vice" is quite watchable; it zips along quickly, and the cast around chameleon Bale is strong.
Arizona Republic
Bill Goodykoontz
Uses flashes of absurdity and whimsy, along with drama and documented facts, to give us a portrait of a man who quietly accumulated wealth and power while no one else was looking.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
Brainy, audacious, opinionated and fun, "Vice" is a tonic for troubled times.
