St. Vincent, 2014 - ★★★★


After seeing the middling reviews for St Vincent I thought I may give it a miss but I'm glad I didn't because it was one of the most enjoyable cinema experiences of the year. To be honest the reviews are understandable as there isn't anything new here and everything about the film is completely predictable. The draw here was always going to be Bill Murray and he doesn't disappoint. Everything is done with competence and frequently laugh out loud funny (interestingly different people in my audience laughed loudly at different moments). The sentimental ending shouldn't work but it completely got me and did I mention Bill Murray.
