"The Boondock Saints",written and directed by Troy Duffy, is one of my all time favorite movies. Two brothers go on an nearly comical vendetta through a Boston killing any and all individuals they believe are evil. The story focuses around these killings, their inspiration, and their execution as well as the detective following their actions. The brothers Conner and Murphy MacManus (Sean Patrick Flanery and Norman Reedus) play their parts well as they act as humorous angels of death. There are great political implications regarding there actions and their religious influences as devout Catholics to be discussed as a class as well. The documentary feel at the end of the movie offers a discussion topic for the class as well, as we could talk about what we would say in such an interview and discuss the different responses show by the interviewee's in the movie.



Over all this is just a great movie that students would enjoy watching while it would still provide great discussions in class.
