St. Vincent - movie review in keeping it postive

This is very much a Bill Murray movie - odd, quirky, warm hearted. I wasn’t really especially eager to see it, but it was what was playing at the time we got to the movie theater.

Melissa McCarthy, a newly single mom, and her son, move in next door to Vincent. The kid, small for his age, has a rough first day of school. He returns to his new home without his keys and stays with Vincent for the rest of the time till his mother arrives.

We learn bit by bit about who Vincent is - the good and the bad of him.

Turns out to be a much more enjoyable movie than I expected. Oh, and McCarthy is NOT over the top as she’s been in the recent comedies.
