Vices

About This Movie

So, Vices, it’s got this gritty, claustrophobic vibe that really taps into the anxieties of modern life. The story revolves around Danny, this anxious guy who encounters Walt, his therapist, on a subway train. Walt appears to be the epitome of success, but there’s this underlying tension that makes you question his facade. The pacing feels deliberate, almost dragging you into Danny's spiral, and the performances are raw—especially in how they navigate their characters' flaws. It dives deep into themes of dissatisfaction and the masks people wear to hide their own issues, which makes it all the more engaging. The atmosphere is heavy, almost suffocating at times, but in a way that keeps you hooked.

Vices seems to have had a rather limited release; not much is known about its format history, and I wouldn’t be surprised if collectors debate its scarcity. Some might even overlook it due to the lack of major names, but those who appreciate deep character studies might find it intriguing. There’s a certain mood that sticks with you, and I suspect it might gain traction among enthusiasts who relish the unpolished and the real in film.
