Action! April continues its vigilante streak on We Drink & We Watch Things, and this week we're cracking open a cold one, and maybe a few skulls, with The Boondock Saints. Get ready for some over-the-top action, questionable accents, and a whole lot of slow-motion gunplay. Grab your drink and decide if you're with the brothers or against 'em. (Obvs, with them, y'all.)
This week, we're diving into Troy Duffy's polarizing cult classic, a movie that's either your jam or makes you scratch your head in confusion. We'll be dissecting the hyper-stylized violence, the very specific brand of vigilante justice, and trying to figure out just what it is about this movie that made it such a phenomenon. Expect some laughs, maybe a little bit of eye-rolling (mostly at Duffy), and definitely some opinions on those accents.
Whether you're a die-hard fan who can quote every line, someone who's always been baffled by its popularity, or just looking for a wild ride of a movie discussion, tune in. We're mixing our thoughts on its action and cultural impact with our usual irreverent banter, making this a fun and potentially chaotic listen for anyone who likes their action movies with a side of fervent fandom (and maybe a touch of disbelief).
