At its best, St. Vincent is a solid comedy-drama that features Bill Murray working at the best of his abilities as an actor to convey the sadness behind the guise of a smartass who has had a rough decline in later life. When the film does not work as well, it is because writer/director Theodore […]

Make no mistake, I’m solely doing this review for my girlfriend. Am I not a nice guy or what? After seeing Melissa McCarthy in this year’s Identity Thief I absolutely wanted nothing to do with her ever again.
