I finally watched the boondock saints, and let me tell you, I was totally unimpressed. I even fell asleep during parts of the more exciting scenes. Yes, I drifted off during some of the gunplay scenes.
And do you know what, reviews off rottentomatoes.com agree with me. Maybe I just didn't get it. Maybe there's some sublime undertone that I couldn't comprehend. It is certainly possible that amidst all the slow-mo shooting bits, drivel dialog passing as wit, and over-acting William Dafoe gracing us with another predictable performance, that I got somehow lost. Because by the end of the movie, I was like "My brother recommended this crap?" Here I am, telling him about the virtues of Braveheart, and the epic grandeur that is Hero, and all he counters with is some Irish guy falling from a fourth story rooftop without so much as skinning a shin? Wowzers. ....Boondock is spelled with two "o"s, in't it? |
