Brilliant - very original July 12, 2010 M. Machado (Steele, MO United States) Fantastic movie. Pretty original, as far as storyline and concept are concerned. Sort of "Death Wish" and "The Brave One" type movie. The play off with the brothers is also a great - like the buddy system used in only a few great movies like "Leathal Weapon". Funny, with a lot of violence and never a dull moment. The addition of the comic relief (C. Collins), I did not think would work at first, but it did and improved the movie immensely. Their "unique brand of quasi-spiritual justice" is the real interesting part of the storyline, sort of Christian vigilantes on a mission.
"Let's do some gratuitous violence." Blu-ray review July 9, 2010 Anthony "Is Blu for You" Scultore (NY) The foul mouthed, wise-cracking, whiskey drinking, Irish-Catholic vigilante brothers are back! The story begins with the MacManus brothers in hiding with their dear old assasin dad. Word comes that a beloved priest back in Boston, has been killed by the mafia to bring the brothers out of hiding. Well, it works! They return and mount a violent and bloody assault against all those responsible. However, while the brothers exact their revenge, dad must deal with a devil from his past!
This is an enjoyable sequel. It sure is fun seeing the brothers back and doing what they do best! The acting could have been a bit better, but Julie Benz is a fun watch. The movie lacks the originality of the first, which takes away from this shoot 'em up style revenge flick. Gratuitous violence indeed. A guilty pleasure, I guess.
BLU RAY THOUGHTS: A sharp and wonderful picture. A lot of this film takes place at night and that is where the power of Blu lies. The blacks are sharp and clear! The audio mix is also boombastic! SPECIAL FEATURES: Enjoyable and interesting. FINAL VERDICT: A MUST OWN FOR FANS!
CINEMA FAIL July 6, 2010 dannyk8232 I wish I could give this movie zero stars....just a horrific mess. I've seen better movies at 4am on Cinemax. What a disappointment. Terribly written, cheesy plot (if you call it that), poorly acted...just a gong show.
Back For More Everytime! June 29, 2010 lcgibbs After a wait of ten years for this movie, you will NOT be disappointed! Conner and Murphy are back with a vengeance and aren't stopping for air! Slight warning though, if you only loved the first movie for Smecker, at least give this one a chance, you'll be pleasantly surprised at the end!
Long Live the brothers, this movie was action packed, with comedy that would be frowned upon by the politically correct crowd, and don't forget the load of f-bombs that Boondocks is known for!!
Not for movie snobs, but great entertainment for 2 hours June 28, 2010 Ryan Moyer (Titletown, Florida) Enjoying Boondock Saints 2 is all about going into the movie with the right mindset. If you go into your viewing of Boondock Saints 2 expecting a movie you'll be seeing at the Oscars, you may come out disappointed. If you go into your viewing just looking to be entertained for two hours, you'll come out happy.
BDS2's biggest bane is that it features some really poor acting out of a few characters. I love Julie Benz in Dexter, but her "southern accent" in this movie is just horrible, and her portrayal as a hardened female FBI agent is just corny. Fortunately, both the accent and the "she-woman hear me roar" stuff kind of disappears as the movie goes on.
Like the first film, the brothers steal the show here. Rocco is replaced by another similar character who provides some good comedic relief, but the brothers themselves are HILARIOUS, and at the same time total badasses and the most convincing actors of the bunch.
Like the first film, a semi-serious plot is kept light hearted via some over the top shootouts and a great mix of humor. There is a ton of fan service in this movie if you liked the first one. The finish is pretty good, though nowhere near the level of pure epicness of the courthouse scene from the first movie.
Simply put, it's not as good as the first one, but it's still a very fun two hours if you don't take it too seriously.
