Vice (2015)

Vice, also known as Dead City 2055 (デッド・シティ2055 Deddo Shiti 2055) in Japan, is a 2015 science-fiction action thriller directed by Brian A. Miller, starring Thomas Jane, Bruce Willis, Ambyr Childers. This movie is noteworthy for having Bruce Willis, otherwise known for playing action heroes, be the villain.

The movie currently has a 4% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, and is widely considered to be one of Bruce Willis’ worst movies ever, even more so than A Good Day to Die Hard.

Plot
Businessman Julian Michaels (Willis) has created a resort called "Vice", where customers can play and live out their dark fantasies with human-like androids. When Kelly (Childers), one of the androids, becomes self-aware, she gets hunted down by Vice’s personnel. Eventually, she comes across her creator, Evan (Bryan Greenberg), and Roy (Jane), a rogue detective who is trying to take down the resort.

Why It Sucks

 * 1) An interesting concept has been poorly executed, thus squandering the potential that this movie had going for it.
 * 2) Bruce Willis' character only appears for a few scenes.
 * 3) There is a whole lot of plot holes, many of them downright baffling.
 * 4) Underdeveloped and forgettable characters.
 * 5) Awful acting, which hilariously enough, feels robotic.
 * 6) The film's special effects are rather piss-poor.
 * 7) Extremely generic and cliché action scenes that are extremely dumb, even by action movie standards.
 * 8) Comes across as being a rip-off of films such as Westworld, Blade Runner, and the original Total Recall, among others.

The Only Redeeming Quality

 * 1) As stated in WIS #1, the premise is interesting, but sadly, it’s handled rather badly.
