Directed by Theodore Melfi (in his feature-length debut) and based on his screenplay (which made the 2011 Hollywood Black List of best unproduced scripts), St. Vincent is yet another offbeat character study anchored by one of the more beloved funnyman personalities in Hollywood right now. St. Vincent is ultimately derivative of other (and better) indie filmmakers’ work, but thanks to Bill Murray’s performance, it’s still a pleasant and funny viewing experience.
