What passes for inquiry here is closer to rough research. Vice Is Broke is momentarily compelling but hollow in the end, much like Vice when the hype inevitably died down.

Eddie Huang’s ‘Vice is Broke' illustrates the foundational problem with films made by people who are too close to their subject.

Rated: 2/4

[Vice Is Broke] is by no means the most insightful documentary you’ll see this year, but admittedly, it sure is a lot of fun.

While there have been shows and movies looking to explore how corporate intrigue ruined interesting companies, Vice is Broke cannot provide many new wrinkles to the overarching story.

Rated: 5/10

The most illuminating scene is actually a clip from the documentary Page One: Inside the New York Times.
