DVDTalk - Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day

The Movie

Sequels are often times not nearly as good as the first film in a franchise, but there have been exceptions to that rule. See Terminator 2 and The Godfather Part 2 for just a couple examples but they had something working in their favor that Boondock Saints II does not. While T2 came close; it didn't have ten full years in between the original film and the sequel. It doesn't seem to matter in this case though because Boondock Saints has built such a cult following that most fans have literally been watching it on a loop just hoping that one day a sequel would arrive. Well, it finally has and here it is for me to review... READ MORE

Old Testament Vengeance With A Twist ...

Boondock Saints II: All Saints DayA decade later, the cult classic The Boondock Saints finally spawns a sequel: All Saints Day. It’s a violent, profane gun battle from beginning to end, pitting the brothers McManus, Conner and Murphy (Sean Patrick Flanery and Norman Reedus), against the forces of evil(er) in Boston, Massachusetts. The pair is again joined by their father, Noah (Billy Connolly), and a rough-riding gang of associates that includes Romeo (Clifton Collins, Jr.) and Special Agent Eunice Bloom (Julie Benz). What results is a bloodbath of humorous witticisms and gags, the violence balanced by the way that the actors play it straight… while playing it sideways.

After a priest is gunned down by an evil gunman who frames the brothers for the murder, the family returns from their hideout in Ireland to clear their name and rid Boston of evil. Some of the same characters return, like the trio of cops who might as well be the Three Stooges, or the various men who ran with the brothers in the original. Other pieces of the puzzle which ..

The Blast Interview: The cast of Boondock Saints II...

I came across “The Boondock Saints” the same way everybody who wasn’t a Hollywood insider in the late 90’s did. A friend handed me the DVD in middle school and said, “Dude, you have to watch this.” I did, and like so many others, I adored it. It’s an entertaining film about two Irish brothers on a mission of divine justice that was made for a budget third of Joe Mauer’s annual salary and has since gone on to become the biggest cult film in decades. The word of mouth campaign that helped the film achieve its status and its complete rejection by the mainstream film industry has created an ardent fan base that has developed a special relationship with the film and anxiously waited 10 years for last November’s sequel, “The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day.”

In congruence with the sequel’s release on Blu-Ray/DVD, some of the franchise’s most notable figures embarked on a 10th Anniversary Tour, including a stop in... READ MORE

FilmArcade - "The Boondock Saints 2: All Saints Day" Blu-Ray Review by Anthony T

Even though it’s been ten years since Troy Duffy directed a film, he still hasn’t lost his touch to create a kick ass action film. “The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day” improves on the original and then some. Duffy does a good job making a sequel that contains the elements that made the original so enjoyable, while adding new things to the mythology. He does a great job making the action scenes entertaining and full of adrenaline and intensity. Not a lot of action films can do that, because most action directors think that explosion sequences bring intensity to the scene. Wrong, it’s the fight sequences along with the way that those scenes are edited is what makes it intense. What also makes the direction good, the way that Duffy handles everything from the flashbacks to the acting of the film. I liked how he uses multiple elements very well, as this... READ MORE

J! Ent - The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day (a J!-ENT Blu-ray Disc Review)

“The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day” is literally an adrenaline pumping, action-packed, kick ass film which I found much better than the first and literally had a lot of fun watching it.

What I find interesting is that “The Boondock Saints” was a film that didn’t even have a chance for a theatrical release but found a humongous cult following on video. And here we are with the sequel, the critics obviously share a different opinion towards this film but among the viewers, they loved the film. As for me, I really enjoyed the film and felt this Blu-ray release is awesome!

Sophomore scenarist & director Troy Duffy has revived Connor and Murphy MacManus for his ultra-violent but often riotous sequel “The Boondock Saints 2: All Saints Day.” If you missed the original , these two Irish-American brothers who worked in a meat packing factory decided to arm themselves with a pair of silenced automatic pistols and imitate Charles Bronson’s “Death Wish” antics. In their case, the MacManus twins believed God had summoned them to serve as his avengers. Moreover, a rogue FBI agent pulled strings on their behalf so Connor and Murphy with their sidekick Rocco could... READ MORE

BlogCritics - Blu-ray Review:The Boondock Saints II: All Saint's Day

Expectations were high. After 10 years, the much-anticipated sequel to the cult classic Boondock Saints finally crawled out of development hell, made it to the big screen and now onto Blu-ray. The buzz around the sequel, however, seemed largely fan-generated, and hopes were high that this sequel, likely too late, would live up to the original.

Personally, I was skeptical. It's incredibly difficult to imagine a follow-up that could do the original justice, and since this movie had been in the works for so long (heck, there was some speculation that it was going to come out in 2005) that I was afraid that it would, frankly, not be very good. My hopes were sparked, however, when it was ... READ MORE

The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day Blu-ray Review

The sequel to the cult crime drama is just as self-indulgent on Blu-ray.



by Cindy White
View all 6 images

March 8, 2010 - Writer/director Troy Duffy revisits the ultra-violent world of the MacManus brothers in The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day, a longshot sequel that many fans of the 1999 original never thought they'd actually get. The sequel opens with the execution of a Boston priest in a manner that makes it look like the handiwork of the long-missing vigilante siblings Murphy (Norman Reedus) and Connor (Sean Patrick Flanery) MacManus.

Although the brothers – who have been hidden away in their native Ireland (a ridiculously outdated and cliched depiction of the country) for the last decade with their hitman dad, Il Duce (Billy Connolly) – know that the murder is meant to draw them out of hiding, they are all too eager to...

Interview: "Boondock Saints" director Troy Duffy

Brooke Lavalley photo
"Boondock Saints" was only marginally successful when it was released in theaters 10 years ago. But the vigilante-justice tale became a hugely popular cult film - mostly by word of mouth - on DVD.

To celebrate the 10th anniversary of the first film and the DVD release of the sequel, "Boondock Saints: All Saints Day," writer and director Troy Duffy hit the road with stars from the films to party with the fans who made it all possible. On a stop here in Columbus, he spent some time chatting with Alive.

How did the "Boondock Saints" movies come about?

The first one was basically just a product of being your regular victim of crime, and seeing crime all around me in my community and nobody doing anything about it. And the basic feckless nature of law enforcement. There's that kind of blanket frustration that I believe every American feels.

The second one, the fans demanded it. It was kind of suggested there might be a sequel just in the basic story. But when it hit like it did ... we listened up and said... READ MORE

The Boondock Saints: All Saints Day (2009) Movie Review

Troy Duffy has been promising for years that the Saints would again come marching in, but for a while it looked like Halley’s Comet would show up before a sequel. After a limited theatrical release last fall, “Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day” hits wide distribution via the home video market, proving the boys are back in town-albeit in a film that focuses more on plot instead of stylized carnage. Worth the decade long wait, “Boondock Saints II” is as potent as Irish whiskey.

The MacManus brothers have retired to a quiet valley in Ireland, living the simple life of farmers. But men like these can never indulge in simple lives for long, and a brutal murder of a beloved priest brings them back to Boston to mete out bloody justice. But this is not just a simple street killing, it’s part of an elegant ... READ MORE

Inside Pulse - The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day – DVD Review

The Boondock Saints was released back in January 2000, and like many small films, it found itself only being shown on a handful of screens, and didn’t come close to earning a fraction of its production budget back. Although, some of these small films find their way to DVD shelves, and it’s there that they can flourish in ways some may have not expected given their lackluster theatrical releases. The Boondock Saints was one of those rare films that picked up a huge following, and because of the passion of the fans, and those who worked on the film, nine years later, a sequel has finally been brought to the light of day.

The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day takes place eight years after the first film ends, and we find the brothers, Connor (Sean Patrick Flanery) and Murphy (Norman Reedus) back in Ireland with their father (Billy Connelly). The three have set up what seems to be a peaceful life... READ MORE

The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day Blu-ray Review By Peter Suciu

The Film

Usually sequels come out because a film was a smash hit in one form or another, but in this case most viewers probably never even heard of the original film. While a cult classic, The Boondocks Saints didn't exactly knock 'em dead at the box office, but that doesn't mean that this sequel requires viewing of the previous film.

The story picks up about a decade after the fraternal twin MacManus brothers (known as the Saints and played by Norman Reedus and Sean Patrick Flanery) have exacted revenge on the Boston-based mob. After a priest is murdered in a way that imitates their ritualistic style, the pair returns to Beantown for another round of vigilantism, making new friends and enemies along the way. As with the original, The Boondocks Saints II: All Saints Day is filled with... READ MORE

‘Boondock Saints’ Return to Big Screen Ends with Party in Maine..


– by JESSICA CARSON –

On March 11, 2010, “The Boondock Saints” movie was shown in theaters across the United States for one night only. Like many, I had never seen the original film on the big screen. Being a huge “Boondock Saints” fan, this was an event I just couldn’t miss!
The 10-year anniversary showing of the film in Maine was held at Regal Cinemas in Brunswick. It was a special honor for us here in Maine to be able to watch the movie with the director, Troy Duffy, and Funny Man David Della Rocco.

This is a movie I have easily seen 50 times. Watching it in a movie theater was like watching it for the first time. There were so many little details that I had never noticed before. I was also impressed that the movie seemed so timeless. Other than Willem Dafoe’s portable CD player, I felt like the movie could have been filmed two years ago and not 10! ... READ MORE

We celebrate the March 9 DVD/Blu-ray release with acclaimed writer/director Duffy.
by Johnny Firecloud
Mar 09, 2010

The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day, the celebrated sequel to the cult smash original, hits DVD and Blu-ray on March 9, and we went right to the heart of all things Boondock for the goods on one of the best vigilante franchises in modern film.



It's been a decade since the McManus brothers (played by Sean Patrick Flanery and Norman Reedus) retreated to the remote Irish coastline with their father, the infamous Il Duce, legendary assassin-for-hire. But when they learn that they're been framed for the murder of a Boston Catholic priest, the boys must return to America to not only clear their names but find the men who framed them.

We caught up with writer/director Troy Duffy, the creator of the Boondock Saints universe, to get some perspective on the film, a look inside the mind of the man himself, and a hint at ... READ MORE

First, just a little personal background: I was always a big fan of Boondock Saints, ever since I first saw it in my friend's basement. It immediately caught on with my group of friends. We rented it, having never heard of it (as I’m sure many fans did). We watched it over and over, then went back and bought copies, started loaning them to friends, and were soon surrounded by people we knew who had seen it, tossing around quotes and referring to scenes.

“The Boondock Saints” Returns to Theaters For One Night

When Troy Duffy refers to his first movie, “The Boondock Saints,” he says the film “virtually” went straight to video. The qualifier refers to the fact that the director used his own money to rent out a handful of marginal cinemas so the film could have a theatrical release before slipping into video oblivion. As fans of the pulpy crime drama about two Irish brothers know, that’s not what happened.

In the decade since it was released, “Boondock” has become a cult sensation, one of Blockbuster’s highest-grossing titles ever and, with the ... READ MORE

Remembering The Boondock Saints...

The way The Boondock Saints survived a certain death, that for most films, would have buried it amongst the incoming heap of constant indie productions, proves it’s no ordinary film. In fact, and maybe more intriguing and important that the actual film, is the story behind the film. A young up-and-coming director named Troy Duffy wrote a script that was quickly shopped and put into production, only for numerous setbacks, confrontations with studio executives, and a notorious documentary that became more popular than the film, could have and perhaps should have buried the film. Alas, like the MacManus Brothers themselves, maybe some divine stepped in.

Killer Film Interview with Troy Duffy...

The Boondock Saints is a film that splits fans and critics down the middle. Some love it, others don’t see the hype. Regardless, the story of the Saints is interesting from behind-the-scenes issues, to a documentary that portrayed the film’s director in a negative light, to a lawsuit, despite all of that, something happened to the film, that gained the cult status and rapid fan base the film thrives on to this day.

Killer Film sits with the film’s director Troy Duffy for an unedited chat about the film, misconceptions, and a possible third Saints.... READ MORE

Mr. March: Sean Patrick Flanery (Interview) ...

Sean Patrick Flanery in ‘The Dead Zone’Interview by Kayley Thomas

Sean Patrick Flanery – When I told Heidi I’d set up an interview with him for Pretty/Scary, I think her heart might have stopped momentarily. Mine may have skipped a beat too. There’s a lot to love. He had that cute and creepy thing going for him in Powder. He was simply adorable (I mean, very manly) as Young Indiana Jones. He had the honor of getting ganked by Christopher Walken in Suicide Kings. He’s brought us some serious (and not-so serious) scares in Demon Hunter, The Masters of Horror’s The Damned Thing, Kaw, and The Insatiable, as well as episodes of Charmed, The Outer Limits, The Twilight Zone, and more recently, The Dead Zone. And he’s got some more sf/f and horror in the works: Deadly Impact hits DVD this April with Mongolian Death Worms and Scavengers slated for later in 2010. Plus, he’s pretty easy on the eyes and a sweet, funny guy… READ MORE

Troy Duffy Celebrates 10 Years of ‘The Boondock Saints’

Ten years ago, writer/director Troy Duffy made a little independent film called The Boondock Saints, which never received a theatrical release but was a massive hit on home video. After jumping through many hoops and enduring some legal entanglements, Duffy made a sequel to his cult hit, which releases on DVD and Blu-ray on March 9.

To help support this upcoming release of The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day, and to commemorate the tenth anniversary of the first film, Duffy has taken to the road with key members of the cast and crew. At one stop in this every-growing tour, Duffy took some time to sit down with Film School Rejects to talk about his films, upcoming projects and what it’s like to be the subject of controversy.

The Legacy of Boondock

The Legacy of Boondock:

'Boondock Saints II' director, actors discuss sequel, challenges of filmmaking

By Sean Lehosit

When it comes to cult classics, several movies come to mind. However, if it came to jotting down a list, "The Boondock Saints" would surely be near the top for many movie buffs. "The Boondock Saints" made a humble debut 11 years ago with a theatrical release contractually limited to two cities and for two weeks only. Although, that didn't stop the film from taking movie fans by storm when it hit the shelves at Blockbuster Video in January of 2000 - the word-of-mouth hype quickly drove this independent movie to become one of Blockbuster's highest rented titles. Since then the film has been redistributed several times. With its DVD release in ... READ MORE

Troy Duffy: The Interview (Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day)

"Blue collar superheroes is what I was going for. They are a bit more accessible than guys who can fly and deflect bullets."

-Duffy, on whether or not his characters are "superheroes"

In 1999, Boondock Saints premiered to a tepid theatrical response only to go on to become a massive cult phenomenon. After a decade of scriptwriting, money-raising, lawsuits and countless fans beggin, Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day finally hit theaters making more money in it's opening weekend than the entire run of the original film. Creator and director Troy Duffy stuck with the film even through some hellish times and we say down with Troy to discuss the movie, his next projects and the potential for a third installment...
