Boondock Saints is such a movie, which is a crime
I’m actually the opposite, in the early 2000s it was hailed to me as being “as good as Pulp Fiction”. Rented it at blockbuster and was really excited, at the end of it all I thought was “that was hot pretentious garbage”. I revisited it during Covid lockdowns, still a shit movie
But, but...
There was a firefight!
It was always way too over the top and up Duffys asshole for me. If you like it I’m not gonna yuck your yum but I will tell you I think it’s trash
Nah, I was just quoting one of the most memorable lines from the movie.
It was fun, but definitely not a good movie.
The usually-religion-themed God Awful Movies covered it. At the end of the previous podcast, two of the hosts were excited, and the third was confused as to why. The episode opens with those two bickering - like 'who the fuck went back in time and replaced the awesome movie I remember with this piece of shit?'
And listen, I was there with you. I saw it in the ideal setting: at a frat rush. It was camp as hell, but energetic and surprising. If I sat down to watch it again I think I'd be deeply disappointed.
