The Boondock Saints

September 7, 2010


And Sheppard’s we shall be, for thee my lord for thee, Power hath descended from thy hand
that our feet will may swiftly carry out thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to thee,
and teaming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Fillii, et Spiritus Sancti. This
prayer is the signature prayer in which both Connor and Murphy MacManus say before they
execute the damned. I tell even though I have only been a fan of the saints for a few short months
now, I feel like a huge die hard fan. I even have there coat that they wear. I would here how great
the film was from by great friend Matt, how good the film was, then I finally watched about two
months ago, and now it is one of my favorite movies ever.

The movie takes place in Boston, where there is probably millions of Irish folk there. There just happens
to be two brothers in particular, who seek out the evil of Boston and hunt them down at all costs. I
thought this was a great idea. So did Troy Duffy, Troy is the director, writer and creator of the Saints.
Troy apparently wrote the script at this bar he had been working for at the time. Some director came to
the bar one particular night and helped Troy begin the Saint movies.

I personally think this film deserved more credit then it was handed. The movie did not recieve a nomination
for any award whatsoever, witch I think is ludicrous, that movie deserved at least some recognition.
I thought Sean Patrick Flannery did an excellent job as well as Norman Reedus as the MacManus brothers.
Anyways I highly reccomend watching this movie, it is simply awesome.
