SmugKitZine Tied for the best movie I have ever seen
StunnaKrypto Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.
Mabel Munoz Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?
Derry Herrera Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.
Mac Brandes So HBO decides to capitalize off Eastbound & Down's success by green lighting another Danny McBride show where he basically plays the same character. Cheap idea, but whatevs. Vice Principals is certainly watchable, but in the end will be forgettable. After watching the entire series very few moments or episodes stand out to me.
rickdalessandris Love it, so far. Danny McBride knows how to play someone that is, technically, like most of us. Only cares about one's self. Yes, he loves his daughter but could it be in spite of his ex-wife and her new beau? Danny McBride takes Gamby into ALL ABOUT GAMBY and that is what's funny. I see an earlier review concerning the ex-wife's new guy being unbelievable but I actually find that believable. The guy actually LIKES Gamby but Gamby doesn't like him, not because he has the ex-wife but because he has something that Gamby doesn't! Gamby, obviously... doesn't even want the ex-wife! When it is all about the McBride character, a McBride series is a KEEPER. I see it is only going to be 18 episodes but I hope McBride is convinced to film new seasons.
matthijsalexander Is it the best? No.Is it funny? Yes.Is it something that soon will be forgotten? Yes.Is it worth watching? Yes.Should I binge-watch this? No.Is it hilarious, No.Does it make me laugh, at times. A chuckle maybe. Yes.Good to watch when you just watched something serious and have some time to spare. I personally like the strong foul language, but I can imagine that parents with kids may want to skip this.
t-hogarth Here's the thing, Danny McBride's comedy is very much down to individual taste. In much the same way as Ricky Gervais's material it is meant to shock, make you cringe, make you laugh out loud and usually, in the end, make you realise that there can be moments of redemption for even the most self centred, unlikeable characters.The interplay in this between McBride and Goggins is brilliant. Goggins's insults drip with a hilarious straightforward honesty towards McBride's Gamby whilst McBride is happy to play second fiddle in the interchanges. The begrudged respect that develops between the characters at times is then all the more heartwarming.Simply put, if you liked East Bound and Down you will like Vice Principals. If you like Vice Principals and haven't seen East Bound and Down then make it next on your list - you'll love it. For all the people that don't like the show, that's OK too, it just means that this will become a cult classic.
