The film opens with Irish fraternal twins Conner (Sean Patrick Flanery) and Murphy (Norman Reedus) MacManus attending Mass at a Catholic church. Next, while celebrating St. Patrick’s Day with friends, the two get into a bar brawl with three Russian mobsters who wanted to evict the pub, as a result the Russians receive a sound beating. The morning after, two of the Russians seek revenge on Conner and Murphy, who kill their attackers in self-defense.
FBI Special Agent Paul Smecker (Willem Dafoe) is assigned to the case and surmises that the death of the Russians was not a professional hit, but probable self-defense. The brothers decide to clear their names and arrive at the police station, where they find that the police and local news reporters see them as heroes. To avoid press attention the brothers decide to spend the night in a holding cell, where they receive an apparent vision from God telling them to hunt down wicked men so that the innocent will flourish.
Conner and Murphy resolve to rid Boston of evil men, with their friend and former mob errand boy Rocco (David Della Rocco) eventually joining them to help. Conner learns of a meeting of Russian syndicate bosses at a hotel from a pager taken from one of the dead Russian mobsters and the brothers quickly kill nine bosses and underbosses—saving the leader, Yuri Petrova — later referred to as “Fat/Fag Man” for last. They recite their family prayer and kill him with two gunshots to the back of the head — the bullets cross and go out his eyes. They place coins on the eyes of all nine bodies, as if to pay the toll to cross the River Styx. Read more
