I just can make it short: It´s a great movie! The actors play very well and the whole story never gets boring. Maybe some more twists would have been better but - again - to make it short: If you have a chance, see it if crime-comedy is what you like! 8 out of 10!!!

Thrilling - go and get it!

Wow! A great movie. Well, at least sometimes.
A great start, nice playing and a (nearly) foreseeable ending.
But the story is good though, so give it a try. It is really difficult to comment on this movie. I just had all the time a feeling of foreseeing everything but it wasn´t boring.
You really have to see this one.

The Boondock Saints
(1999)
A great movie - definitely not to miss!

Pulp Fiction style. That would be a nice summary but I won´t use it.
"The Boondock Saints" is far away from beeing Pulp Fiction style. Yes, they are many things, that remember me Pulp Fiction (the cat-scene is the best example), but this movie needs brains as well!
You cant´t just sit around and wait for the bang, boom and bang. And you don´t need to be on drugs (or at least have the same mood) to understand this movie. Everything is plain but clever, easy but smart.
The "heroes" do the things they do, because they believe in justice and use therefore self-justice.
At the end of the movie (after some "bloody" scenes) you remember yourself that you are in your favorite cinema and you ask yourself: "Yes, this is great movie. Great action. Let the evil burn. But, is self-justice right? Can it be?".
A great movie - definitely not to miss!
