Sobre este filme

Forced to work long hours, single-mother Maggie (Academy Award®-nominee Melissa McCarthy) has no choice but to leave her 12-year-old son Oliver (newcomer Jaeden Lieberher) in the care of their new neighbor, Vincent (Academy Award®-nominee Bill Murray). Together with a pregnant stripper named Daka (Academy Award®-nominee Naomi Watts of THE IMPOSSIBLE), Vincent brings Oliver along on all the stops that make up his daily routine - the race track, the strip club, and the local dive bar. While Vincent hastens Oliver's introduction to manhood, Oliver begins to see something in Vincent that no one else is able to: a misunderstood man with a good heart. Also starring Chris O'Dowd (BRIDESMAIDS) and Academy Award®-nominee Terrence Howard (HUSTLE & FLOW, IRON MAN).

But its good to see Bill Murray acting again , even though this us not his usual type of character. It was not the best movie Ive seen,but the story was ok. The only problem was it seemed parts of the story were missing,as if they were edited out. It just seemed to lack fluidity or continuity in my opinion,but I always like Bill Murray so I gave it 4 stars.

The movie itself is wonderful, Bill did a great job, as well as the rest of the cast acting wise. The story was great, the script was great, Etc, however the movie was definitely more of a drama then a comedy. Yes, there where a few hilarious scenes, but they where basically all shown in the previews. Definitely geared towards more mature audiences, as children would definitely find the film boring/slow paced. A bit of a let down on the humor side, but other than that a great film.

St. Vincent is a sweet, heartfelt comedy that stands out thanks to Murray's excellent performance. I'm not sure I would have liked this film if Murray had not been in the title role. He carries the film unlike he ever has before. The film is hilarious, and he has practically no help from Melissa McCarthy, who only shows up at the most serious parts of the movie to yell at Murray and adds nothing to the movie as a whole. Bravo Bill Murray, I can honestly say that you should be proud of this performance.
