Vice

Poor Dick Cheney. Poor, poor Dick! His daughter is gay! GAY! That must have been SOOOO difficult for him. How conflicted he and his wife must have been when they found out.

Please.

The filmmaking is expert. The acting is superb. But this is an ugly, off-putting movie about ugly, off-putting people. There’s not a single redeemable, likeable character throughout the whole thing. It’s just about a bunch of assholes. Granted, some of the best actors in the business play these assholes, which makes it watchable in a dumpster-fire, train-wreck kind of way. But heroes they are NOT. Hard to recommend because it might just make you angry, rather than make you marvel in the Richard III, Shakespearean way that America was taken over by assholes.
