Has anyone seen this movie? I'd never even heard about it until my son brought home a copy. Although it was only released in 5 theatures for one week in the US, it's achieved something of a cult status.

It's an action movie in the vein of Reservoir Dogs, but with the added element of religion. The main characters kill some mobsters in self defense and then recieve a vision from God commanding them to kill the wicked that the innocent might prosper.

They then go on a killing spree virtually wiping out the mob (Italian and Russian) always being careful to not spill the blood of the innocent.

Anyway, it's a fairly entertaining movie if you like action. It also brings up issues of vigilante justice and religiously motivated violence.

I don't really get what people see in this movie, beyond some guys with accents shooting other guys with accents. Defoe is hilarious, though. Makes the movie worth seeing.

S'ok. The documentary about the director is way more interesting though.

It's called 'Overnight' go peep it.

It is a fun movie in the genre of Lock,stock... and Snatch. Also similar to the cancelled series the Black Donellys, which was about a bunch of screwed up Irish punks...

I think they are making a sequel to it, although the director is a problematic person.

Dafoe as a gay detective, hillarious....I wish they would actually play it on cabel...

Donna: What? Why?
Rocco: I thought it would bring closure to our relationship.
