Even if it is for publicity, please tell the story smoothly and create the characters to be true and believable-this is the first task of film creators

The editing is a bit messy, and the narration is purely superfluous, and it is completely inferior to the use of the narration in the other work "The Big Short" by the same director

The directors and screenwriters are too politically inclined, and they still have to stand on the moral high ground. I don’t like it.

The completion of several main roles is still high, although Rockwell and Carell still have no rivals?

Carell’s goal is clear and sophisticated, and the villain can act handily; Bale’s vice president is scheming, but the script’s reason makes this character lack clear and credible motivation for doing things, and the overall is very vague. The image of a political figure is not as strict as his wife’s control. The image of Rockwell is clear; Rockwell plays Bush, a bit of a harlequin, and fulfills the role requirements, but the role itself can’t stand (the pan is still the screenwriter and director)

    Three and a half. Both the head and tail are common, the life at the beginning is somewhat lengthy, and the end uses pseudo-documentary to declare one’s political views just like "Black Party Member", without disguising it. Although it is clear-cut and hard-line conservative, its neutrality is greatly compromised. Going back to the film itself, from when Cheney had the desire to be vice president, the whole film began to get better, and it gradually made me stunned. Although I think of a moderately dramatic treatment in order to exaggerate Cheney's wealth and inhumanity and playing with power, it is still surprising when facing the most powerful vice president in the history of the United States. Although the shot was the vice president, what is interesting is that President Bush Jr. was ridiculed by all kinds of irony, not only seemed to be worried about his ability, but also at the mercy of others, allowing the vice president to trample and misinterpret the laws of the country. In fact, from the content point of view, this is a serious movie, but this time it is even more exaggerated than "Big Short" with the alienation effect and various satires that give the movie a bit of black humor. The liberals in the United States are obviously not the great saints, but this way of using movies to "fight" is quite clever.

    It's so boring, the editing is annoying. What do you expect from shady polititians. Of course Bell's acting skills are beyond doubt. Amy Adams is also very distressed.

Vice quotes

  • Kurt: [Narrating] As the world becomes more and more confusing, we tend to focus on the things that are right there in front of us. While ignoring the massive forces that actually change and shape our lives. With people working longer and longer hours, for less and less. When we do have free time, the last thing we want is complicated analysis of our government, lobbying, international trade agreements, and tax bills. So it's no surprise that when a monotone bureaucratic Vice President came to power we hardly noticed. As he achieved a position of authority that very few leaders in the history of America ever have. Forever changing the course of history for millions and millions of lives. And he did it like a ghost. With most people having no idea who he is or where he came from. How does a man... go on to become... who he is.
