I love this movie so much
Borserie
it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Donald Seymour
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

This is sad man speaks directly to my sad man. That is how I like this egregious drama, what I happened to enjoy in Saturday the 13th Jan. When the melodramatic sainthood in the world of cinema failing, there are some good reasonable uprising in movies with similar theme, and out of all those title , this shit worth your sad time. Sometimes when I sit alone and watch this kind of movies, I feel the cinema is correct but of course the real world is way far far behind from what it is call human life. You see the nursing home people wanna 'Put' Sandy somewhere else if this old man fails to pay, Stupid bankers, as always and always try to survive in their pathetic protocols and trying be nice about their imprudent schmuckness , and you will see sicken hospital policies. So, see , out of the beauty of freedom and essence of love and compassion the blunt rudeness of , I would say mostly greed created living system breaking the wonderful norm of humanity. To the most of world Daka is a hooker but to Mr Vin , she is the 'Lady of night' and this bold man showing his deep seated empathy to this lady by frankly apprenticing the honesty of the way she make living. And in return Daka play a role more than just a hooker. I will say ,that would be the true satisfaction of doing business. As an armature reviewer am quite blind to see weakness in a movie if I truly fell in love with it . so, yes and I am blind to find a flaw in here. From the script writer (may be the person we always forget to give the credit) , director and all staring doing everything sharp and flawless, and of course our Bill Murray, the man lost in translation :) reasoning his excellence in Hollywood once again as Vin.Why we need art, If it is for creating better world, then we need this kind of art, we need more human watching this kind of art. We need not to white wash ugly governance and corporation as the way of life, an it's stars as the Saints. We need people to be true to them and stand for it and to be real saint to their their very own way.Of course Mr Vin, even I don't understand why people say ' I am sorry for your loss'Loving this !!!

This was a very touching movie with a 'cute' 'funny' 'realistic' story, had me laughing and crying. I love Bill Murray and the boy, but I am sick of Melissa McCarthy. Honestly the only thing that stood in the way of the last star was her... if they cast someone, almost anyone else, it would have been a solid 10. Also, why does IMDb put a 'minimum length' requirement on movie reviews...

St. Vincent is a great movie. It's funny comedy but also has a surprising emotional depth. I've always liked Bill Murray and also here. To be fair he plays the same character he usually does, but he does it so well. He's the bitter sarcastic jerk but who deep down is a good person. St. Vincent has many funny moments and dare I say all of them come from Murray, close to all. But this movie I would describe as kind of a dark comedy or maybe even little tragic comedy. Because the drama is actually most gripping. There is much more depth in the story than I was expecting. In the end the movie is of the feel good genre and so there are some cheesy moments. But it's not a problem as the movie is still not too predictable or overly sentimental. Newcomer Jaeden Lieberher does great. The character we the viewer should feel most sympathy for and one does. Usually I'm not a huge fan of Melissa McCarthy but here she fits her character perfect. Nothing of her slapstick overacting which is what I associate her with. Mostly her character is serious and sad in a emotional way. Her funny moments come when she's playing of Bill Murray's grumpy old man with her own sarcasm. Of the main characters its Naomi Watts who brings the shortest straw. Her performance is alright even if I can't stop noticing the accent. It's just that her character is the least interesting and also feels like the least important. St. Vincent is a very good heartwarming movie. It has humour, a well written story, good actors and characters.

There is nothing too original about St Vincent but heartwarming performances by the actors make it work despite the clichéd script.Bill Murray is the curmudgeonly Vincent. Mean, bad tempered, money problems, drinks too much and gambles even more. The only friend he has is a Russian prostitute he pays for sex.When young kid Oliver moves in next door with his single mother, Vincent is paid to babysit him. He teaches him life lessons such as to stand up to bullies, going to bars and the race track.Oliver also learns more insightful things about Vincent. He wants to do the best for his wife, now in a home and suffering from dementia. As a younger man he was a heroic soldier that could always be relied on.The film has nice support from Terrence Howard as a loan shark, Naomi Watt as the working girl and Melissa McCarthy as Oliver's mother.It has a nice soundtrack, few surprises but is an easy watch and Murray seems to be enjoying himself.
