The Boondock Saints vurderinger og anmeldelser
- Zokkiie29. mars 2026Rough around the edges but weirdly memorable. It’s got that late-night, cult-movie feel where you can tell they just went for it, no overthinking. Some parts are kinda ridiculous, but it owns that energy instead of apologizing for it. The real standout is Willem Dafoe—completely unhinged in the best way, and easily the most entertaining thing on screen. Not everything clicks, but the personality is strong enough that you don’t really mind.
- ApocMora19. mars 2026A classic, and was great watching it with friends for St. Patrick's day.
- makdelart18. mars 2026The film attempted to include numerous elements that were deliberately intended to elevate it to cult status. Unfortunately, with too much infantilized humor that might amuse teenagers at best, the ‘cult’ elements turn out to be kitsch, and the pastiche becomes cringe-worthy. At one point (in the very same film!), Dafoe’s character becomes a self-parody. In the style of Tarantino’s cinema? Just as a soy burger is in the style of a real Angus beef burger.
- beadon123. januar 2026Always an epic romp.
- Daniel Gustavsson12. oktober 2024Epic and amazing movie. Both funny and intense. There are so much memorable moments in this.
- Corwin027. november 2025Brilliant
- ayayron6. april 2025And Shepherds we shall be For Thee.... in nomine Patri, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti.
- CarbonDJ4. november 2025Cult classic. Willem Dafoe is perfection. My favorite role of his. The rest of the cast nails it. I can't quite explain what makes it so great. You can tell the influence of Tarantino. Tough to believe that Duffy only went on to do the sequel and never tried anything else.
- Peter Bickford21. september 2025The most charming and unpreposessing action shoot-em-up you're ever likely to see, with winning performances all around.
- jennifermadison64029. august 2025Great flick
- EL JEFE14. august 2025Amazing
- Hipster ZOMBIE4. april 2025Troy Duffy’s Boondock Saints is one of the last truly great masculine action comedies of the 20th century. The film is bloody, unapologetic, ballsy, and a true love letter to vigilante justice. Norman Reedus and Sean Patrick Flanery breathe life into Connor and Murphy, their bond as brothers stronger than steel and laced with humor, heart, and holy vengeance. And then there’s Willem Dafoe—utterly unhinged, brilliant, and unforgettable as FBI agent Paul Smecker. He dances on the line between genius and madness like no one else could. The film is soaked in stylized violence, Tarantino-esque flashbacks, and a hauntingly epic soundtrack that gives each gunfight a kind of poetic finality. The jokes and social commentary would make most ultra sensitive woke generation of today wet their pants and reach in anger for their keyboards….
- Chris29. desember 2024If you are looking classic style acting or an emotional breathtaking film, please stop reading and move on nothing to see here! This is a great low budget cheesy action film. Was the acting great (no), was Oscar worthy (no)...This is a simple movie with a simple plot. However it is well worth the time. Sean Patrick Flanery, Norman Reedus and Willem Dafoe work very well together. This film takes nothing serious, but it works. Dafoe character seems one that he was born to play (an over the top over acted peace of brilliance).
- mickerdoo28. juni 2025Saints make vigilantism cool. Righteous killing by two foul-mouthed Irishmen. Leads, Rocco and Dafoe are top notch. Love storytelling order.
- VeedddeeR19. mai 2025Certified hood classics
