Saints 2

Ugh, where to start.... I am one of the biggest fans of the original. On a trip, I watch the original 3 times in a row on my i-pod. I was so excited the day I rented the second one and that was my problem. Right from the start I was uninterested. The story idea was actually ok and Collins and Flanery were not bad. Smecker's replacement was probably the most annoying character I have ever seen in a movie. I absolutely could not stand listening to her talk. What also put me off was the other three detectives behavior. From what I saw (I say that because I stopped the movie halfway through and returned it), the whole crime thing was a big joke.

Sequel Rule of Thumb

After waiting for seemed like an eternity, the long awaited sequel to the sleep classic 'The Boondock Saints' was finally released....only be on a limited release.
By mistake, I happened to see it was finally playing at a local AMC, so I e-mailed a friend and we got our tickets to see it the other night.
Though I gave this movie a 3 star rating (good); if it wasn't for some occasional uber-redeaming qualities I probably would have gone with this movie being just Okay (a 2.5 star rating).
This movie seriously lacked the fun quality that was so addicting about the first movie. I felt Sean Patrick Flannery and Norman Reedus were not in the roles as much as they were in the first. Plus, they looked incredibly tired during the 'entire' movie; which I don't think was a planned look. …
