Synopsis

Two Irish brothers (Sean Patrick Flanery and Norman Reedus) become righteous vigilantes when they make a pact to battle Boston's criminal underworld. But standing in their way are the ruthless Russian mafia and a dogged FBI agent (Willem Dafoe). Secrets will be revealed and loyalties tested, as the brothers unleash their explosive vengeance on a relentless quest for truth and justice!

Review

A simply enchanting tale about two Irish brothers who take it upon themselves to wipe out all the mobsters in Boston. Conner Macmanus (Flanery) and Murphy (Reedus) are the two brothers while Paul Smecker (Dafoe) is a flamboyant and totally crazy homosexual FBI agent.

When the very violent and foul Russian mob starts to strong–arm their way into the brothers' South Boston neighborhood, the boys go to church—say their prayers and blast the evil–doers heads off. The body count rises, and the people of Boston aren't too upset about this particular breed of resident dying these untimely deaths. While the Boston cops are baffled by the whole affair, Smecker has the criminals figured out—he's just trying to decide out whether he wants to join the vigilantes or fight them. Smecker is one odd, self–loathing duck. he is shown in one bedroom scene where he berates his affectionate lover, saying that touching is for "fags". While he shuns caresses in bed, he's totally nuts at work. At one point, he's doing a bizarre dance and listening to opera at a crime scene while trying to get into the heads of the criminals. Boondock Saints is a rare animal—it's a light–weight action–adventure movie with a big heart and a kooky gay character.
