Staring Gene Hackman & Keanu Reeves
Rating M
Score 4/6
While NFL players are on strike over a pay dispute the owner of the Washington Sentinels called on former coach and friend Jimmy McGinty to bring together a team of replacements to finish the season.
The Replacements is about giving the everyman a chance to live out his dream. There is an excellent ensemble cast bringing together the likes of Keanu Reeves as a washed up Quarterback given a second chance, Jon Favreau a man looking for a legal outlet for his violent tendencies, Rhys Ifans as a man hoping to save his bar and Brooke Langton as the sexy cheerleading captain. With this cast your’re in for something special and maybe even the cynics in the audience will cheer
