Vice (DVDRip - 2008)

Genre : Crime/Thriller | rapidshare/file-factory

“Vice” is an independent film produced by actors/actress Daryl Hannah, Matthew Robert Kelly and Michael Madsen, starring ... guess who? ... Daryl Hannah, Matthew Robert Kelly and Michael Madsen. They lined up some respectable talent to support the script by writer/director Raul Inglis, most notably the cinematographer Andrzej Sekula, whose previous projects have included “Pulp Fiction” and “American Psycho”.

Detective Walker(Michael Madsen) is a deeply flawed hero fighting to redeem himself while solving, and simultaneously trying to prevent, a string of murders following a drug deal gone bad. As in other gritty, gripping urban dramas, such as The Usual Suspects, Vice takes the viewer by the throat and doesn‘t let go until the final plot twist reveals the truth about Walker—and the hard cost of making tough choices.

Michael Madsen, best known as the sadistic Mr. Blonde in “Reservoir Dogs,” has appeared in his share of B movies, and “Vice” won’t catapult him to the A list. But the film, a muddled, disposable crime thriller, has modest merits.

Mr. Madsen plays Max Walker, a cop in a tailspin since his wife died. He takes part in an undercover heroin deal that unravels, and later it is discovered that some of the drugs have been stolen, presumably by a member of his team. As his colleagues are murdered one by one, he’s desperate to nail the turncoat. Max trusts only his partner, Sampson (Mykelti Williamson), who is leery of Max’s hard-living ways, and a female officer, Salt (Daryl Hannah).

It’s Ms. Hannah who gives the film its charge. She and Mr. Madsen shared entertaining moments in the “Kill Bill” movies (directed, like “Reservoir Dogs,” by Quentin Tarantino), and their rapport here is palpable. The gruff Mr. Madsen is looking increasingly distended; Ms. Hannah, her vertical face under a mop of black hair, is a terse goth vision. Her features, unlike his, have gained complexity with age, and Ms. Hannah, immersed in an earthy character, for once isn’t paraded as a prop.

Raul Sanchez Inglis directed, but Mr. Tarantino’s influence prevails, in the cinematography by Andrzej Sekula of “Dogs”; in the abundant epithets and expletives; and in the climactic “Dogs”-style standoff. The film is also dedicated to Chris Penn, Sean’s brother, who was in “Dogs” and died in 2006. But missing, regrettably, is that movie’s inventiveness, clarity and wit. - - ~ Andy Webster - NYTimes
