Movie Info
Julian Michaels (Bruce Willis) has designed the ultimate resort: VICE, where anything goes and the customers can play out their wildest fantasies with artificial inhabitants who look, think and feel like humans. When an artificial (Ambyr Childers) becomes self-aware and escapes, she finds herself caught in the crossfire between Julian's mercenaries and a cop (Thomas Jane) who is hell-bent on shutting down Vice, and stopping the violence once and for all.

Bruce Willis plays the CEO of a futuristic resort where perfectly human-looking androids exist to fulfill their clients' deepest, darkest desires - none of which, it can safely be said, involve watching movies as relentlessly mediocre as this one.
"Vice" is "Blade Runner" on the cheap and minus the imagination.
Recombining elements of "Blade Runner," "Strange Days" and "A.I." makes Bruce Willis' "Vice" an intriguing sci-fi thriller, but in the end it doesn't do enough with its ideas.
Evidencing more bullets than brains, "Vice" - a bit of ephemeral science-fiction twaddle directed by Brian A. Miller - has absolutely nothing to recommend it.
Here's hoping Bruce Willis bought something special with whatever cash he earned from this pointless, brutally ugly rehash of 1973's "Westworld."
A bargain-bin high-concept sci-fi thriller full of Joel Schumacher-esque canted Steadicam moves, leaden expository dialogue, and cheap fluorescents-glued-to-the-wall sets.
Audience Reviews for Vice
What sounds like a cheap version of Gamer actually ends up being more akin to another Bruce Willis film, "Surrogates". And just like Surrogates, Vice is garbage. It's runtime is thankfully short (96 minutes) but the dialogue is frequently painful and the story is more holes than substance. If trying really hard to mail it in wasn't an oxymoron, I'd say that's what Willis is mostly up to these days, and Vice is no exception, he's useless, most everyone else is clearly amateur, only Thomas Jane brings even one iota of talent to the piece and even then he is pretty heavily hammed down by the script. I suppose an argument could be made that Charlotte Kirk was more than tolerable, though this is quite likely thanks to her minor role. All that trash talking aside though, I've been far more bored in far bigger movies, so I guess it's all point of reference.
Super Reviewer
The story was a bit ridiculous, the actors were ridiculous, and the ending was predictably ridiculous. Somehow the level of ridiculousness was a good combination that kept me watching.
