Vice (2008)
6/10
This was OK
26 October 2008
Warning: Spoilers
I picked this movie up at a mickey d's red box and i wasn't expecting anything special. I figured if it was i would have heard about it. What i got was an OK cop movie with a kick ass cast. Madsen was awesome especially in the overdubbed readings. It made me wish he would have been max Payne instead of mark. Hannah managed to look about 10 years younger and she played the shy girl cop very well. But what made the movie for me was the addition of Alex Krycek( nick lea ) from the x-files. That put a huge smile on my face. So what holds this movie back? Well the writing was pretty weak and the story had more than a couple holes. I liked the idea of a drug bust that changes everyones lives through paranoia and broken trust. The thing that really brought the movie down though was the surprisingly bad acting in some scenes. Mostly scenes with Hannah and Madden. The car scene where walker and Sampson get into an argument and walker says, "do you wanna f**k with me" was possibly the worst scene of Michael Madsens career. not a bad movie. You should see it just for Nick Lea and Madsen together.
