It doesn't matter who you are or what you like...YOU HAVE TO SEE IT!!!
Rating: Summary: Is being bad to evil guys a good thing? Review: You may not agree with it, but you might find yourself aproving some of the McManus brothers' massacres. And behind this ethical question, there is a great movie, wich power - I believe - comes from its characters: the McManus, two naïve, imature brothers, who believe they have a mission from God, wich is killing all the "mafiosos" in town ("Evil men, dead men".); Detective Paul Smecker, the hilarious gay detective, who has a particular talent to understand what happened in a crime scene; Yakavetta, the cynic, cold-blooded godfather; Il Dulce, the heartless cleaner (is he the McManus' father?); and, last, but not least, Rocco, the funniest and most confused killer candidate. In addition, it has excelent dialogues - not to mention the pray they make before every execution - and very good action/shooting scenes. And remember: "Do not kill. Do not rape. Do not steal. These are principles which every man of every faith can embrace." "Never shall innocent blood be shed, yet the blood of the wicked shall flow like a river."
Rating: Summary: Unknown movie strikes big Review: This movie was recommended to me by a friend of mine, and despite my misgivings by the title and synopsis on the back, I took a chance and watched the movie. To say that I thought it was great, would be an understatment. There are no words to describe how much I liked it. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't life-altering or anything, but I do now own it. The heart of the movie is about vigilantism. God has seen fit to anoint the McManus brothers as his angels of death. And woe be to those that they deem evil and darken their door. It was directed by Troy Duffy, employs a wicked cast of characters, and distributed by Blockbuster. The strength of the movie is characterized by the fact that it's survived on word of mouth alone. By the end of the movie, you'll most likely be catching yourself employing memorable lines from the movie and giggling whenever you see William Defoe in other movies. (Trust me, after this movie you're perception of him will change.) And then of course, there's the cat.
Rating: Summary: The best movie you've never seen, or heard of Review: i dont konw where we found this movie or why we rented the first time, but I've never regretted it once. The first night we watched it we though it was so good we watched it again immediately after the first viewing, and numerous times since then. But you have to be okay with swearing and violence, i.e. i don't recommend this movie to my mom. But it is an absolutely fantastic movie
Rating: Summary: One of the best movies I've seen. Review: Maybe it's because I'm Irish, but this is one of the greatest movies I've seen in a long time. I had never heard of this film until a friend of mine let me borrow it. Let me tell you, had he not let me borrow it, I would never have seen this movie. I thank him for that. This movie has everything you need, humor, action, great dialouge and good sound. I was reved up at the end of this film. If you buy or rent it, don't read the back of the sleave. Make sure you go into it not knowing what's going to happen. You'll thank me for it. Willem Dafoe is excellent in this. His star shines extrodinarily throughout the movie. Sean Patrick Flannery is awesome as well. Keep an eye on him! I loved this film as much as Pulp Fiction.
Rating: Summary: I must have been watching a different movie Review: I have no idea why people love this movie so much. I can'twrite a detailed review of why it is so bad, because I saw it months ago and refuse to watch it again, but I will say unless you like movies with very thin plots, storylines that make little sense, and gratuitous violence you probably won't like this movie. I guess it's a 'cult' hit, I suppose....
Rating: Summary: greatest movie nobody saw Review: this is the greatest movie nobody saw. i ask most veybody i get reasonably acquainted with if they have seen 'the boondock saints' and it's usually "no. what's that?" then i say "you are in for a heckuva trip my friend." i feel that it's my duty that everyone sees 'boondock saints'. it has the greatest action sequences in it of any movie. it's one of the funniest movies i've seen. and it is definitely the most quotable movie ever. if you like movies at all you cannot pass this up. catch you on the flip side.
Rating: Summary: By far the best movie ever! Review: I could go on and on to tell why there is no movie better than "The Boondock Saints", but you will just have to watch it for yourself! I agree that the cast, especially the twins, is more than incredible! I catch myself watching other movies just because that I see their name there. Probably the best acting in a movie ever! And the movie itself is so incredible good wrote and directed that I haven't ever seen anyone come near it! The action scenes in slow motion and with an incredible music, make me roll it over and over....and over again. There is a lot of violence, allthough never unnecessary much. On top of being action-packed it is hilarious! I've never experienced such humor before. The cat-scene, the Wyatt Earp-scene and the crawling in the air-shaft still cracks me up! I actually can't get enough of it. I must have seet "The Boondock Saints" at least 15 times, and still some 15 to go! I have never heard anyone say that this ISN'T the best movie ever. All my friends are hooked, allthough it is mostly a boys-movie. We even learned the prayer: "And Shepards We Shall Be, For Thee My Lord For Thee. Power Hath Descented Forth From Thy Hand, That Our Feet May Swiftly Carry Out Thy Command. So We Shall Flow A River Fort To Thee, And Teeming With Souls Shall It Ever Be. In Numine Dei Patris. It Filii...Spiritus Sancti.....BOOM!" I also started dressing like the twins, black coat and dark sun-glasses. They've become my idols, and thet's almost scary. I descided to rate only one movie here, and that was to be the best movie I had ever seen. It was never any questions. I've seen a lot of good movies (I love Matrix, Leon, Braveheart...) but they can't even compare to this one. It's in a genre that I have never seen before, and I am hoping for other films like it, maybe a sequel (not very likely) It's a shame that films like this don't get any attention. If hollywood had beed introduced proparely to "The Boondock Saints" I am convinced that it would have been one of the greatest, most popular films EVER! If you haven't seen this movie, and you are not afraid to get seriously hooked, BUY IT, and do it NOW!!
Rating: Summary: Amazing Movie Review: This movie sums up everything that we (the public) like to see in movies. Mob violence, persecution, dead cats... you name it... this move has it all. I feel bad for anyone that hasn't seen this movie, and I definatly show it to everyone I meet. This movie is so good that I have to keep it locked in a safe box to keep it from being stolen from jealous friends...
Rating: Summary: Boondock Saints DVD Review: This is one of the tightest movies I have ever seen. I give it a definate 5 star rating. Boondock Saints is not filled with gaudy SFX or anything, just a solid story with some tight shoot-outs. Not only is there action, but it's extremely funny too. If you haven't seen this movie see it....NOW!
