Our suggestions
'Vice' explores how a bureaucratic Washington insider quietly became the most powerful man in the world as Vice-President to George W. Bush, reshaping the country and the globe in ways still felt today.
"Director Adam McKay ("The Big Short") is an expert in satire and black humor. With "Vice," the filmmaker portrays one of the most powerful and controversial figures in recent American history, Dick Cheney, with the same acidic sense of humor. Obviously, the star of the show is the chameleon Christian Bale in the lead role, accompanied by the great Amy Adams as his wife, and Sam Rockwell as George Bush. It's no surprise that the movie received eight Oscar nominations and won at the Golden Globe for Bale's performance. It is undoubtedly one of the most interesting films of the 2019 awards season, which makes the audience understand politics with humor."
