Consensus: This sequel to the cult favorite The Boondock Saints is more of the same -- unoriginal, absurd, violent, over-the-top, and occasionally mean-spirited."
"20.1. Blu-ray
No kyllähän tän nyt katseli, mutta eihän tää lähellekkään sen ensimmäisen leffan tasolle yltänyt. Häiritsi vähän kun Julie Benz yritti vetää samaa roolia kuin Willem Dafoe ensimmäisessä leffassa. Painotus sanalla yritti. Mielelläänhän tota Benziä kattelee, mut ei toi hahmo vaan jotenkin toiminut.
Mitä vittua tapahtui Sean Patrick Flanerylle näiden kahden leffan välillä? Eihän sitä ollut tunnistaa samaksi henkilöksi."
"Ensimmäisestä osasta mukacooliutta ja "kristityt tappajat hyvällä asialla" -tyylistä vammailua on lisätty reilulla kädellä. Lopputulos on väkivallan ihannointinsa puolesta jo sellaista tuubaa, että tästä voisi hyvällä syyllä jo loukkaantua. Vaikka en itse vielä moraalittomuudesta loukkaantunutkaan, niin homman yleisestä toimimattomuudesta ja leffan tympeydestä kylläkin: tässä vaan ei ole yhtään mitään coolia. Toimintakohtaukset ovat mielikuvituksetonta räiskettä, jossa"
"Best track on the album: Blood Of Cu Chulainn (2010). This track is amazing. It moves me and I genuinely feel happy, no matter what, every time I hear it. Line Of Blood is also pretty great.

Comment: Thanks to The Boondock Saints II, we got a soundtrack for the amazing music heard on the first and the second film. The music on the first film was one of the reasons I loved it so much. The songs just stuck in my head and it was love at first sight. When I saw the second movie, it"

Kun katsoisi ykkösen uudelleen, paitsi että siistejä ja cooleja ammuskelukohtauksia on nyt tuhatkertaa enemmän, jotka syö leffasta tehoa. Tosin ykkösen mielenkiintoisin hahmo tekee lopussa cameot."
"Connor MacManus: "You ready for this shit, my dear brother?"
Murphy MacManus: "Let's do some gratuitous violence."
Rocco: I am so sick of all of this self help, twelve step, leftover hippie generation bullshit!
Connor MacManus: Now they don't want you to do anything, right? Just sit there. Don't drink.
Murphy MacManus: Don't smoke. Don't drive fast.
Connor MacManus, Murphy MacManus, Rocco: Kiss my ass!
Rocco: Fuck it! Do it all I say! Do you think Duke Wayne spent all of his time talking ab"
"Wasn't this one of the most wanted sequels since...well, I don't know. Wall Street? Anyways, we finally get an update on the "raining blood from the sky" brothers. Was it cool to see them again, yes. Did the formula implemented in the first film update well, not so much in my opinion. Still it is a must see for die hard fans of the first film and gratitous violence. I guess that my overall letdown of the film would be that the story feels just a little rehashed.
Thanks to Drabrire for the sugg"
