I wanted to see this film when it came out but I never did. And now, I regret it. I saw this and unlike the first one, I loved it. It was a lot funnier and awesome to watch Sean Patrick Flannery and Norman Reedus as the Irish vigilante McManus brothers Connor and Murphy return to bring justice to those responsible for the murder of a beloved priest. It was great that director Troy Duffy brought back a lot of the actors from the first one, Like David Ferry (Dolly), Brian Mahoney (Duffy), Bob Marley (Greenly), Gerard Parks (Doc), and David Della Rocco. And as for the new characters: Clifton Collins Jr. (Star Trek) as the wild and emotional Mexican sidekick Romeo, Julie Benz (Rambo) as Smecker’s FBI southern replacement Eunice Bloom, Judd Nelson (The Breakfast Club) as Don Yakavetta’s son Concezio, and Peter Fonda (Easy Rider) as Louie “The Roman” were all terrific. And I thought Billy Connolly, who returns as “ll Duce”, was a lot better than he was in the first one. I loved the action, the comedy is hysterical, and there were some sad moments, THE BOONDOCK SAINTS II: ALL SAINTS DAY is one of the greatest sequels I’ve ever seen.
