Overall this was an enjoyable movie if you were a fan on the first Boondock Saints movie.
While the plot is iffy, there is quite a bit more action shoe-horned into this one....although that ins't necessarily a good thing. The characters, especially on the "bad guy" side of things were far too cartoonish in this edition, which kept me from getting fully engrossed in the story line as I had in the first one.
It was obvious one of the goals was to make this movie a bit more light-hearted than the last...while it had more jokes, the delivery of them just didn't mesh well with everything else, so the comedy feels rather forced.
Overall I'm still glad a bought the movie, if nothing other than a show of support for the amazing first movie. If you have not seen the first movie you MUST start there...otherwise this one will be a complete waste of your time.
What's great about it: Lots of action....far more that the last movie.
What's not so great: The writing/acting on this one is only so/so....quite a step down from the 1st movie
