Bill Murray
“ST. VINCENT” My rating: B (Opens wide on Oct. 24)
102 minutes | MPAA rating: PG-13
Moviegoers may be forgiven for approaching “St. Vincent” with caution.
After all, it features Bill Murray in full-curmudgeon mode as a coot who becomes the reluctant caregiver to the son of a single mother (Melissa McCarthy).
Sounds like a gig Murray could do in his sleep, and plenty of us already have maxed out on McCarthy’s brand of overkill comedy. Moreover, the whole thing reeks of “About A Boy: Geezer Division.”
Except that it works.
With his feature debut, writer/director Theodore Melfi can be accused of dishing Hollywood cliches, but his cast’s sheer good humor and professionalism lift this yarn. And the pile of improbabilities is offset by real heart and solid laughs.
