Movies That Don't Blow:: The Boondock Saints

"And Shepherds we shall be
For thee, my Lord, for thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand
Our feet may swiftly carry out Thy commands.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee
And teeming with souls shall it ever be.
In Nomeni Patri Et Fili Spiritus Sancti."

This movie is considered as what some would say is a modern day morality tale. Two brothers, Connor and Murphey McManus, team up against the Russian Mob because they have been harassing a small South Boston Irish neighborhood. Oh, and did I mention that they believe that the Lord told them to do it? They only want to rid the streets of these gangsters. Is that so wrong? The boys choose to kill only those who prey on the weak. They have become local heros! Now, one somewhat strange FBI agent is in charge of bringing them both down. Starring:: Willem DaFoe, Stan Patrick, Norman Reedus, David Della Rocco, and Billy Connolly.



More Importantly:: I wrote this recent blog because Boondock Saints 2 has recently come to theaters. I was somewhat disturbed when I came to find out that this movie is only playing in certain theaters!! Makes no sense I suppose, because everyone really wants to see Toy Story 1 and 2 again even though they have both the movies on DVD and VHS. Really? But whatever. The Saints get much love from me!
