About this movie

Superstar Keanu Reeves (the "Matrix" trilogy, "Sweet November") stars in this fact-based comedy about the 1987 National Football League players' strike. A motley group of replacement players for the Washington Sentinels overcome all odds and put together a string of seemingly impossible victories. Co-starring two-time Oscar-winner Gene Hackman ("Heist," "Unforgiven"), Orlando Jones ("The Time Machine," "Chain of Fools") and Jon Favreau ("Made," "Swingers"). With NFL announcers John Madden and Pat Summerall.

Ratings and reviews

I've seen this movie a few times when I was younger,after watching it again tonight I can confirm it being as great as I remembered it to be. If your a sports fan or not.

The Replacements is one of my all-time favorite movies. It's got cheezy music, boy-meets-girl plot line, life lessons from football, the mentor coach, character conflict/resolution and a true story that anyone who has ever played sports can relate to. Long live the Setinals and Shane Falco!!!
