Boondock Saints (Truth & Justice Edition) [Blu-ray] Reviews

For a good two-thirds of its running time, Troy Duffy’s The Boondock Saints sets itself up as the heir apparent to Quentin Tarantino’s Pulp Fiction. It’s overriding sense of cool, its innovative structure, and its galvanizing photography capture and hold one’s attention. Things begin to go somewhat awry about twenty-five minutes before the end, but up until that time, the film’s flaws are minor, nit-picking ones, and the film’s joys and pleasures are manifold. Being made on a $6 million budget certainly isn’t betrayed by the excellent performances and the striking location and studio photography, all of which appear to belong to a film much more lavish than that skimpy budget should have brought the filmmakers.
