This movie is gaining popularity, and with good reason. It is stylish, quotable, funny, and
overall badass. It's about two Irish brothers who take the law into their own hands, becoming
vigilantes of sorts. They find and kill the morally wayward, often in accidential and zany 
fashion. A FBI agent is assigned to find them, and trails them through the movie. The brothers
are very religious, and are constantly quoting epic biblical verses. Samuel L. Jackson, 
anyone? The title comes from the unfortunate fact that the Irish neighborhood they live in 
refuses to incriminate them, making it very hard for authorities to catch them. The music is
sweet, and the quotes are so fun to say. There are also roughly one billion f-bombs dropped
in the movie, so don't take your kid or your dog or whatever. The movie has a very cool style,
the brothers are as cold as it gets, and the finale is one to remember. Do yourself a favor, 
go watch it.

SCORE:9/10
