THE REPLACEMENTS

Details

• Release Year: 2000
• Genre: Comedy
• Plot: Underdogs become top dogs in this fun-filled, rough-and-fumble comedy that's 'the best football movie of the last few years' (Larry Stewart, Los Angeles Times). Keanu Reeves plays Shane Falco, a washed-out all-American QB who guides a team of misfits assembled by veteran coach Jimmy McGinty (Gene Hackman) to replace striking pro players. A motor-mouth reciever (Orlando Jones), a merciless linebacker (Jon Favreau), a nicotine-wired kicker (Rhys Ifans) and more line up alongside Falco for a drive to the playoffs. For sultry support, there's cheerleader Annabelle Farrell (Brooke Langston) and her ex-stripper squad. 'Pain heals. Chicks dig scars. Glory lasts forever,' Falco tells his team. It's a game plan that works to perfection.
