I was simply happy that Vice wasn’t as bad as I expected, but it remains the worst of 2018 thus far. Some folks are fine with anything being said in the service of going after Dick Cheney, but I am certainly not that vindictive of him or anyone. Lies are lies, no matter who you are telling them about. But much like my Death of Stalin review, if I’m busting myths about a someone generally think is a bad guy, which to be clear is a dumb way of viewing history, then I’m going to be labelled as defending the man. Just you wait, people are going to be that kind of stupid about this. The funny thing is this movie could’ve easily avoided these problems if it wasn’t so vindictive to begin with, but I can understand how difficult it is to talk about Cheney’s vice-presidency.

Wiki: Vice is a 2018 American biographical comedy-drama film written and directed by Adam McKay. The film stars Christian Bale as former U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney,[4] with Amy Adams, Steve Carell, Sam Rockwell, Tyler Perry, Alison Pill, Lily Rabe, and Jesse Plemons in supporting roles. The film follows Cheney on his path to become the most powerful Vice President in American history. It is the second theatrical film to depict the presidency of George W. Bush, following Oliver Stone's W. (2008).
Vice was released in the United States on December 25, 2018, by Annapurna Pictures through their Mirror Releasing joint-venture, and grossed $76 million worldwide. The film divided critics, as some lauded it as "cleverly biting", while others denounced it as "a clumsy display of political hatred", with McKay's screenplay and direction receiving both "scathing critiques and celebratory praise". Despite the polarized reception for the film itself, the performances, particularly those of Bale and Adams, received universal praise.
The film received numerous awards and nominations, with eight nominations at the 91st Academy Awards, including a Best Picture nomination and a win for Best Make-Up and Hairstyling. It also had a leading six nominations at the 76th Golden Globe Awards (including a nomination for Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy), and six nominations at the 72nd British Academy Film Awards. For their performances, Bale, Adams, and Rockwell were nominated at all three shows, with Bale winning the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor – Motion Picture Musical or Comedy.
