(“E spiritu santo, a salaam alaikum, go Sawks.”)
Boondock Saints 2: All Saints Day has a poster, and surprise, it depicts praying and shooting. Critics are already calling it the prayingest, most shooty movie of 2009. All your favorite characters are back — chinstrap, Tawmy, Squeezebox, Harelip Steve — for the most eagerly anticipated sequel of Kappa Sig pledge week.
The sequel finds the brothers MacManus hiding out in Ireland from their bloody past. Boston isn’t quite finished with them however; the duo returns to right a wrong after they receive word of a murdered priest. [MTV]
Someone shot him?? While he was praying?? The dastard! Anyway, you gotta love Troy Duffy. He proves dumb people can be pretentious too.

I swear to God, Vince, I was just about to compare Boondock Saints fans to Arrested Development fans for being annoying assholes who prattle on endlessly about how great something is to the point of making me hate it.
Honestly since when do holier than thou Irish dudes run around killing people with guns? Clearly they often move in slow mo but this is ridiculous.
‘All Taints Day’ is a cross between Way of The Gun and The Departed with an ounce of Shoot ‘Em Up and a hint of Good Will Hunting. All stuffed together in a sheep’s stomach.
FACT: Troy Duffy puts baseball cards on his lifted truck rims.
I know the knee jerk reaction around here is to hate on movies, which I usually do. But this movie fucking sucked. Hard. It’s Irish pride porn, nothing more.
It’s not that I don’t like the Boondock Saints, it’s just that anytime two Irish dudes are on their knees firing blanks, I at least expect a cutaway to some chick with bad teeth.
It’s not all bad. This has reminded me that it’s about time i watched the second half of In Bruges? “You’s a bunch of fuckin’ elephants.”
+1 for the “all you favorite characters” line, Vince.
Unnecessary question mark there. I must be plagued with doubt.
Pray for me.
In Bruges made me heart Colin Farrell forever.
I liked the first one. Only liked. That’s all.
Hate if you hafta.
When did Sean Flannery turn into a puffy version of Ryan Reynolds??
They should call this Boondock Saint Jude. It’s a lost cause.
Sean Patrick Flannery is also in a similar – in tone – movie to Boondock Saints called Suicide Kings. Anyone seen that? Christopher Walken essentially plays his True Romance character and Dennis Leary is his enforcer. It’a another one of those worth a watch if it happens to be on late movies.
As a pale skinny white kid whose skin only turns various shades of pink and red, I was required to like the first one. But really??? Avenging the murder of a priest is a good plot these days? There’s like a 90% chance they’re going after someone who had to point at the crotch of a baby doll in a psychiatrist office at some time in his life.
And 10 points to vince for the caption.
If my brother and I were ever granted divine power, it’d probably involve drywall and/or hanging said drywall…for the Lord.
IT’S MY ISLAND! HAHA! I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THE IRISH EXCEPT FOR THEIR HIDEOUS WOMEN!
Vinnie, for me it was SWAT. That movie fucking RULED!
I told an Irish guy that if he held a gun up to his ear and pulled the trigger, he could hear the origins of the universe.
I’m not culpaple for that, am I?
I’m half Greek, half Irish.
Part of me wants to see this film. The other part wants to have sex with the first part.
Oh my God Vinny, look! 2 Robocop guns. Are they robots?
“The sequel finds the brothers MacManus hiding out in Ireland from their bloody past.”
Is anyone else reading the back of this video box for ‘Gingers Spread Wide: 9′ ?
They’re not praying. The photographer just caught them mid whiskey-nap.
MIZ, those are 92FSs not 93Rs and you know it. Stop teasing Vince.
Q -What do you get when you cross two Irish brothers and a Mexican with a mohawk?
A – I don’t know, but eventually someone’s shitting in the closet.
