Kristen Wiig in WELCOME TO ME Opens in St. Louis Only at The Hi-Pointe

WELCOME TO ME opens in St. Louis May 8^th exclusively at The Hi-Pointe Theater

Bill Murray called WELCOME TO ME “one of the boldest and strangest comedies I’ve ever seen.”

In WELCOME TO ME, directed by Shira Piven—co-starring Linda Cardellini, Tim Robbins, Wes Bentley, Joan Cusack, and James Marsden—Kristen Wiig plays Alice Kleig, a woman with a borderline personality disorder who wins $86 million in the lottery and decides to buy her own talk show.

We Are Movie Geeks did not get a chance to see WELCOME TO ME in advance, but the critics who did are impressed:

Andrew O’Hehir at Salon.com calls WELCOME TO ME:

“Malicious, hilarious and heartbreaking … one of the biggest movie surprises of 2015 so far.”

Travis Hopson at Examiner.com says WELCOME TO ME is

“….hilariously wacky and touching….a showcase for what Wiig can do when put front and center.”

A.O. Scott at New York Times says of WELCOME TO ME:

“By turns touching, amusing and genuinely disturbing, it defies expectations and easy categorization, forgoing obvious laughs and cheap emotional payoffs in favor of something much odder and more interesting.”

Richard Brody at New Yorker claims:

“The movie’s idiosyncratic delights pack a wild metaphorical punch.”

WELCOME TO ME opens in St. Louis tomorrow only at The Hi-Pointe Theater (1005 McCausland Ave). Showtimes are:

Friday – Sunday: (1:15, 3:15, 5:20), 7:30 and 9:30

Monday – Thursday: (5:20), 7:30 and 9:30
