Perhaps its cause' I've been playing a lot of COD lately, but name me some films that have modern guns in them. Action or war, stuff like the hurt locker, the kingdom, generation kill, just pretty much anything that has modern weapons in them, kind of bored of watching WWII and Vietnam stuff now.
Not really interested in Sci-fi ie) resident evil kind of stuff etc.

thanks in advance

edit: i've tried using watch-movies.net and imdb to search for some good action flicks, but this is easier.

I was a pretty big fan of the first one, but man, Boondock Saints 2 is arguably one of the worst movies ever made. There's a reason Williem Dafoe didn't sign on. Troy Duffy is a total douchebag, and has no talent as a writer or director. I suspect the first movie was probably "cleaned up" by Miramax writers, unlike this sequel which really shows how "talented" Duffy is.

As far as I'm concerned, you're probably right. I can't say for sure, because I only made it through the first 6 minutes of Boondock Saints 2 before I became so irritated that I needed to shut it off. I could just tell it was going to be a steaming pile of dogshit, and refused to allow that to sully my love of the first movie.

So watch Boondock Saints, and pretend they never made a sequel.

The best part of Boondock Saints was Dafoe and the making of documentary.

watched BDS2 last night. it was ALRIGHT, but waaaaay to gimmicky of the first movie....ie fights with each other right before a murder scene, the ear plugs with the broad.....its the same movie with a couple different people and weaker acting and not even close to as good as the first...if that makes any sense at all.
