Watch The Boondock Saints For Free

Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Did you people see the same film I saw?

A lot of fun.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Quite a good watch. Had never heard of it until a couple days ago - on a Screen Junkies video - and since it was being praised and Willem Dafoe, I decided to give it try. Dafoe is exactly the best part of it. Over the top, funny and really full-on crazy, his character carries the whole film not letting it turn boring and stale. Another fresh idea are the flashbacks. I wasn't expecting they'd choose this route to illustrate the most of the action scenes and it surely delivers. It's very interesting to look at the crime scene and at the same time as the cops, try to find out what happened. Unlike what I've seen written about this specific part of the film, it's not like it gets too much repetitive since as Smecker is closer to finding out who are "The Saints" he too gets incorporated in this action scenes, in quite spectacular fashion. The rest of the cast, specially Reedus, Flanery and the first-timer Della Rocco also make for interesting performances, despite not at the same level. The film is visceral, "balls to the wall" and certainly feels fresh, with some inventive camera work and choreography. The action scenes felt gripping and somewhat intense.Recommended

This film is awful--but its so awful it's good!!! It belongs in the special Battlefield Earth class of movies for its over-the-top portrayals (the only thing missing was for Smecker to wear pink and listen to ABBA), inane plot devices (mobsters killed by a lead character launching himself off a building while handcuffed to a toilet), jaw-dropping dialogue (see the what happened to my cat scene) and unapologetic aping of other films'directing styles (ex. John Woo slo-mo, Christopher Nolan orbiting camera). This film is truly amazing.

Gay FBI agent Paul Smecker (Willem Dafoe) investigates two dead Russian mobsters. The local incompetent cops assume a mob hit. Brothers Connor (Sean Patrick Flanery) and Murphy MacManus (Norman Reedus) confess and Smecker determines self-defense. The news declares them Saints of South Boston. The brothers are joined by low-level Italian mob worker Rocco as they go on a religious crusade against criminals. The mob assigns feared assassin Il Duce (Billy Connolly) to take out Rocco before he can turn state's evidence against them.This is violent. While the violence is filmed with lesser skills, it does have a kind of stylish glee. The editing leaves the story a bit disjointed. The brothers could be appealing characters and Dafoe is a compelling actor. Agent Smecker takes a strange turn which does not serve the movie well. The character Il Duce could be interesting but I question everything done with him starting with the comedian Connolly. There is a fine line between cult movie and camp. This one straddles that line and could be considered both.

Well,i finally got around to seeing this movie.my roommate raved bout it for years.did I like it?the only word that comes to mind is meh.i didn't like or hate it.it's a crime drama/action film.lots of blood and guts.one thing I should mention-the f bomb(or any of it variations) is dropped almost every other word,sometimes even more frequently.coarse language doesn't bother me generally,but I think they way over did it on that score.as far as crime drama/action movies ate concerned.this one is somewhere in the middle of the pack.it definitely wasn't worth the hype.it/s rated pretty high on this site(7.9).I wouldn't rate it that high myself.i noticed there is a sequel ,which I am on the fence about seeing after being disappointed in this one.for me,The Boondock Saints is a 5/10
