NEW RELEASE DVD RECOMMENDATION – ST VINCENT
ST VINCENT has been released on video and I highly recommend it. Here’s my review:
What a delightful surprise this little movie is. Bill Murray (Vincent) is all Bill Murray – but he plays Bill Murray well and is a joy to watch. Melissa McCarthy’s (Maggie) usual over-the-top performance is toned down to a beautifully understated role and shows she has great potential as an actor. Naomi Watts (Daka) clearly has fun with her “lady of the night” role. And newcomer, Jaeden Lieberher, is winsome as Oliver. The story is simple and full of positive values. It’s funny, heart-warming, with genuine humour. I really enjoyed it.
