ST VINCENT 3

Feel-good filmmaking and Bill Murray rarely occupy the same space. It’s a rare event when the comedy icon can embrace sincerity while retaining his droll persona, and if there’s anyone who’s absolutely mastered the challenge, it’s Wes Anderson, Murray’s frequent collaborator. Although “St. Vincent” tries to sample Anderson’s style here and there, writer/director Theodore Melfi doesn’t have the vision to merge broad antics and emotional wreckage, with the feature gasping for air between a few genuinely successful scenes. Scattershot and artificial, “St. Vincent” is kept alive by Murray, who’s game to go where the script leads, adding his own spin to characterization when necessary, backed by an agreeable supporting cast.
