Now that the movie has been shown to fans, we can finally sit down and talk about it.
I saw “Boondock Saints II” last week. I liked it.
I didn’t like it in the way that I’m a news editor and occasional film critic. I didn’t love it in the way that I’m an artist and I can appreciate a classic piece of film.
Let’s face it, there’s two kinds of people in the world: The ones that love “The Boondock Saints” and the ones who hate “The Boondock Saints.”
I found BOONDOCK SAINTS a couple years after it had hit on video. When I was serving in the military the pilots who flew at night used to watch it incessantly before going off to fly in the helicopters and for some reason I always would walk in during Willam Dafoe’s drag scene.

There seems to be two very different camps for BOONDOCK SAINTS: the ones who… READ MORE

Whether you’re a super-fan of the original 1999 cult classic The Boondock Saints or not, you’ve very likely seen both of these gentleman in numerous other movies and TV shows.

To many of his fans, Sean Patrick Flanery will always be one half of one of the greatest action duos of all time, The McManus Brothers. It would be his performance alongside Norman Reedus in “Boondock Saints” that would help spawn one of the biggest cult sensations in movie history. Throughout his career, Flanery has proved to be anything but a one-trick pony. This dynamic actor has continued to grow his already impressive resume by immersing himself in the characters and continually testing his limits as an artist.
Over a decade after the original film debuted, Flanery and Reedus find themselves reprising their iconic roles in a sequel that many people never … READ MORE

Although Sean Patrick Flanery has a long list of acting credits to his name in film and TV, from The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles, Powder, Suicide Kings, Stargate SG-1, C.S.I., Masters of Horror, and his six season run on the TV adaptation of The Dead Zone, it was the 1999 role of butt kicking Irish twin brother, Connor McManus in Boondock Saints that fans have been talking about for a decade.

IGN premiers the trailer for Troy Duffy’s The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day, which will be released by Sony’s Stage 6 Films in limited theaters on October 30th.
The film is the continuation of Duffy’s tough, stylized cutting edge saga of fraternal twins, the MacManus brothers (Norman Reedus, Sean Patrick Flanery). The two have been in deep hiding in the quiet valleys of Ireland, far removed from their former lives or modern technologies. When word comes that a priest has been killed by sinister forces in the tough underworld of Boston, they return to mount a violent and bloody crusade to bring justice to those who must now suffer the consequences, with a new partner in crime (Clifton Collins) and a sexy FBI operative (Julie Benz) hot on their trail!
