Inclubabu Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

Grimossfer Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%

Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

Skyler Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

Andariel Halo While this movie came out before Westworld the hbo series, the similarities were striking. Enough for me to presume that the hbo series has more in common with the 1973 movie than I would've suspected. Since I haven't seen the 1973 movie yet, I can't determine just how much alike they are.A lot of elements from this movie are similar enough to the hbo series (a single female android inexplicably remembers their past iterations, has memories of a building she's never seen before, and violence committed against them, wakes up during repair, escapes, causes all the other androids to remember and turn against their handlers) to be intriguing, but the intrigue essentially ends there. While Westworld was a big huge place devoted to vice and violence and the like, the place here in "Vice" is essentially limited to a sleazy-looking upscale bordello or hotel. "Cheap and tawdry" best defines the place, as well as the entire aura and tone of the film. Once the female android Kelly escapes, she ends up drawn to a church building, the same one she inexplicably remembered earlier, despite never being there. There she inexplicably finds the original designer of the robots, a guy who is inexplicably young and sexy and who apparently designed Kelly to look just like his dead wife, using his dead wife's DNA. All the while, Thomas Jane, who deserves better than this film, is a cop who is inexplicably in trouble for executing an arrest warrant inside the cheap and tawdry Westworld, and is inexplicably suspended from the police force for investigating an alleged "explosion" which is used as a cover story for Kelly's escape in which she killed some employees there. Despite having compelling evidence to at least investigate the supposed explosion, the police chief suspends him and forbids him from investigating further. Some manner of corrupt intrigue between the police and Cheap and Tawdry Westworld's owner, Julian Michaels (Bruce Willis in a pointless role) is briefly implied, but subsequently dropped and never mentioned again. The fact that Julian Michaels apparently has his own para-military police force with the latest in military technology weaponry is another pretty major "This should be more important than a runaway android" plot point that is subsequently completely ignored and forgotten. The vast majority of the film apart from the setup is basically just chases, with Thomas Jane (who deserves better) thrown in for a laugh. Despite making their escape, Kelly decides she wants to free all the other androids by uploading a program into the Cheap and Tawdry Westworld's systems that will let them all remember everything that ever happened to them. This succeeds, and the androids mercifully decide not to kill everyone or something. Honestly I completely forgot everything about this movie's ending. Apart from the Westworld connection, other reviewers have mentioned just how bad most of the acting is. The writing and the way the film treats things like police procedure, detective-talk, and the fact that a private businessman has his own private army wandering around the city getting into massive gunfights that result in civilian casualties is treated like it's not a Big Effing Deal far worse than anything involving Cheap and Tawdry Westworld. It's written like a teenager whose sole experience with this manner of "adult stuff" is video games like Grand Theft Auto and dumb cop movies where big noisy guns and "ungh sexy chicks hot babes unhh makin fat stacks of cash" is more important and relevant than the fact that a random business asshole has a PRIVATE MILITARY FORCE engaging in shootouts on the streets resulting in civilian casualties and this almost never even comes up at police headquarters beyond an extremely brief "investigation" which is almost immediately forgotten and dropped to focus on "an android ran away"

Ryan Harper I liked the movie and don't know why you all are giving so less points. It is a classical Sci-Fi movie like surrorgates, which is also with bruce willis in it. The story is a little bit shortened, maybe because of the time limit, but it is still a movie which can entertain anyone. The casting of the police officer could have been better, but the girl looked awesome. Maybe a longer view in to the virtual world would have been a better point. But as I wrote, it is a nice movie and has much more potential with more money and some better actors. People who doesn't like it, have another taste. But i think for those who like a crazy, maybe true, view in to the future, the movie is good enough So good idea, nice actress. For me not less than 6 points...

trashgang The new Bruce Willis, i thought to give it a try. Bruce nowadays isn't too much in action flick, aging you know but now and then he pops up in Sci-Fi flicks. I found it rather weird to see that the story reminded me a lot of other flicks. But most of all Westworld (1973). The reason is simple, at Vice you can have your pleasures, if it is killing people or having a gangbang, its' all available but suddenly one of the robots doesn't react to a reboot. Guess what's coming. The robot turns against it's creature (Frankenstein anybody?)It's not that bad after all, Bruce is typical Bruce but there's no originality towards the story and most of the things are predictable. There's a bit of funny parts with the copper walking around especially at a sex club. Just not good enough to say it's mediocre.Gore 0/5 Nudity 1/5 Effects 3/5 Story 2,5/5 Comedy 0,5/5

johmil-18374 The sci-fi idea of this movie is not so bad. A city (Vice) where paying customers can do what ever impulse came into their mind to the residents of Vice, and what would that do to the customers when they return to their homes outside of Vice.In reality this is a psychological issue that psychologist study a lot, in the one corner we have Freuds theory catharsis, a release of intra psychological energy, and then its good to do this release like boxing for example. The other theory is Banduras modeling and then things you do creates a model for you to handle other things in life in a similar way. Studies show that modeling is closer to the truth and thats the conclusion of the movie as well. When Vice people get back in a "real" city they are dangerous like they are in Vice.Another interesting thing this movie handled is what is life? Here they draw the line when we don't have a real longterm memory. Unfortnatly this ideas is not well executed. Its just to many bad action scenes (how many times can you run and avoid bullets). Bad acting mostly in the minor parts like the lead hunter/security officer for Vice and the police captain for example. This movie should have skipped the action parts and tried some sophisticated story instead. I would recommend an other sci-fi with Bruce Willis instead and thats Surrogates, its a great movie cause it also handle interesting philosophical questions but in a much better way than Vice and have a hell of a lot better actors as well.
