The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day (2009)

The sequel to the 1999 original. Although I had seen the first movie at the time, I can’t remember anything about it anymore. Luckily part 2 has a very brief summary at the beginning of the movie that is sufficient to be able to enjoy this one. At some moments you will probably won’t have an “AHA!” moment, but you’ll still be able to enjoy all the action.

The saints have come back into action after forgetting about their past lives. When watching this, you are treated to well choreographed shooting scenes that look beautiful. It’s a wonderful action movie, with a great story.  Clifton Collins Jr. has been added to the cast and makes sure there is enough to laugh about. This works, he’s very funny and in each scene he appears you will crack a smile. After seeing the sequel I do want to see the first one again, because if it’s just as good as this one, I’m hoping a part 3 will be made.

Score: 8
