Keanu Reeves and Gene Hackman made a great movie here. This is a non-stop laughfest. I think this is probably my all-time favorite sports comedy. It is pretty bad for PG-13, but I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys a... Full review

Despite myself, I found The Replacements enjoyable. Keanu Reeves actually makes a very convincing football player; his slow drawl and sculptured physique are just right for the part. ... Full Review

This is a feel-good movie about scabs.....It's a hackneyed scene, but one of the few in The Replacements that replaces convoluted intentions with silly entertainment.....The incisive, close-up photography by The Sixth Sense 's Tak Fujimoto outclasses the story by yards..... ... Full Review

It would be conveniently glib to say that "The Replacements" shows what happens when replacement writers and directors get to make films, but the harsh truth is that the reverse is true. As for the actors, every single one of them, even star Keanu Reeves, has been noticeably better in previous work. ... Full Review

By and large, "The Replacements" would have been middling entertainment....It wasn't because he gave the best performances....But Howard Deutch and Vince McKewin have botched the formula so badly....When I was little, Keanu Reeves was one of my favorite actors.....the dialogue scenes are helter skelter and the plot is a contrived mess that barely makes its way from one scene to the next..... ...
