The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day is the much-anticipated sequel to the indie cult classic, The Boondock Saints. The film is the continuation of writer/director Troy Duffy’s tough, stylized cutting edge saga of the MacManus brothers (Norman Reedus, Sean Patrick Flanery). The two have been in deep hiding with their father, Il Duce (Billy Connolly), in the quiet valleys of Ireland, far removed from their former vigilante lives. When word comes that a beloved priest has been killed by sinister forces from deep within the mob, the brothers return to Boston to mount a violent and bloody crusade to bring justice to those responsible. With a new partner in crime (Clifton Collins Jr., Star Trek) and a sexy FBI operative (Julie Benz, TV’s “Dexter”) hot on their trail…the Saints are back!

I work at a movie store. Already knew about it and I'll get to see it a week before it opens.

The first one was an exercise in the complete glorification of senseless violence for its own sake.

But, still, it was pretty cool.

When did you say the second one was coming out?

pointless · 10-08-2009, 10:07 PM

really? that doesn't sound like a good idea to me. 'course i just thought the original movie was just okay.

Of course with perks comes lame-ness.

The reason I get to see it early is because I have to review it for the store.

So as much as I would LOVE to enjoy the movie, I have to find the good, the bad and the "wtf?" -_-"

And that unfortunately, spoils things for me somewhat because with every damn movie, there's always a flaw *pout pout*

Especially with sequel's

I think there were a few WTF moments in the first movie starting with Willam Defoe and ending with Ron Jeremy and Jeanna Fine... Its those WTF moments that make me totally dig this movie.

This one looks prettier, but I hope they keep the gratuitous violence in place.

I was not working at a movie store back then :P

But yes, yes- very much so agreeing with you there.

Come to think of it; it's been a while since I've seen the first. Maybe I'll watch it tomorrow evening : )

It is better pouncing.

I'm going to see this tonight. Ain't-it-cool News liked it.

Shadowann2 · 10-30-2009, 05:05 PM

My fiance has been hyper-excited since he saw that this was coming out. He made me swear we would go the day it came out. Unfortunately, it looks like it won't be in our city! He's hopping mad about that!

He wants to get the Latin words that the brother have tattooed on their hands put on his forearms. I've managed to talk him out of it since he works in a professional line of work and if anyone sees them, he would be viewed as unprofessional. I convinced him that they would be too hard to hide if they were down the inside of his forearms, so now he is trying to think of somewhere else to put them. I told him he was a nerd and a fanboy for getting a tattoo from a movie, even though most people wouldn't know what they were from.

Rei Rei's review:

Good, but lacking :/

I don't want to give too much away, but it still has the classic flair as the first one.. but the story isn't strong in my opinion at all. >.>

But it is worth seeing. So check it out!!

tcook · 10-30-2009, 05:15 PM

Looks good, but I dunno, without Dafoe, it isn't gonna be the same...still gonna watch it if it comes to our theater.

SuprSalor · 10-30-2009, 05:23 PM

Man I hate sequels to really good movies.. Hopefully this will be one of those rare gems that are at least as good if not better than the original..

Luke_Atmydik · 10-30-2009, 10:44 PM

Well fuck. It's not even playing at a theater near me.
