Already a cult classic, The Boondock Saints has Irish (and super-religious)
brothers (Sean Patrick Flanery and Norman Reedus) taking Boston by storm as
vigilantes ridding the town of evildoers. Meanwhile, a gay FBI agent (Willem
Dafoe, who steals the show completely) is hot on the trail, while the boys also
get hunted by kooky crime lord (Billy Connolly).
Stylish and fun in a cheeseball sort of way (think Tarantino without the retro
hipness), these Saints are amusing enough -- until the endless gunplay,
blood-splattering, and monotonous SCREAMING MATCHES wear you down. I'd had
enough within 45 minutes, but you'll have to make it through 110... and then
there's the sequel that's on the way.
