Boondock Saints II is a catastrophic flop: $8,000,000 budget, $450,000 opening weekend despite opening in more theaters, having a larger advertising budget (on TOP of the $8,000,000 filming budget) and around a decade of drunken Irish fanboys praising the film to hell and back. As of this time, Rotten Tomatoes critical consensus gives the film a certified rotten 14%: Comparable to other "Box Office Smash Hits That'll Turn 2-For-1 or 3-For-1 DVD Value Packs in 2 Years" in theaters now... such as "Amelia", "Couples Retreat", and "Love Happens".
At least it's in keeping with the original film: $6,000,000 budget, $30,000 earned over its LIFETIME in theaters and 10 years worth of critical consensus on Rotten Tomatoes totaling a 16% rating.
Let that be the last nail in Duffy's coffin... I'm pretty sick of all the Tarantino knockoffs at this late stage: Even Tarantino's sick of Tarantino, that's why we ended up with "Kill Bill and Everything After That".
