Boondock Saints
This movie is old by today's standards ('99, I believe), but it's still really good. It's about two Irish brothers who live in South Boston. Their usual hangout is bought out by the Russian mafia, so they get into a barfight with the thugs sent to clear them out. The next morning, after humiliating the thugs, the thugs break into their fifth story loft housing and chain one brother to the toilet, dragging the other into the alley behind the building. The brother cuffed to the toilet rips the toilet from the cement, drops it on one of the thugs and jumps on the other. All in all, they kill the thugs. Later, the police show up and investigate and whatnot. Later than that even, the brothers turn themselves in and are not charged, as it was self-defense. As they spend the night in a holding cell to avoid the press, something happens. They're visited by God or something. Anyway, the next morning they determine that somebody has to clean up the streets, and it might as well be them. So they go on a killing spree in South Boston. It's actually quite a funny movie. The F-bomb is dropped a LOT, but all in all it's a great movie. There's even an exploding cat scene. Watch the movie and you'll see what I mean.

Re: Boondock Saints
In the movie, Willem Dafoe is a homosexual FBI agent in the Organized Crime unit.
I believe this (homosexuality) is true of his real life, but don't quote me on that, because it's not a solid fact.

Re: Boondock Saints
I know, me either!
Dafoe's character is the only original that's NOT in the second movie.
Too bad the D___ (insert the three letters in man, but in a slightly different order) movie isn't showing near me. I live in Indiana and the closest it's showing to me is Pennsylvania. -.-

Re: Boondock Saints
I don't understand why they wouldn't show it everywhere. I mean, the original have SO MANY fans. You'd think they would make a huge deal about it. Silly people.
