Very entertaining feel-good comedy

Rating: 10/10 (1 July 2001)

"The Replacements" is everything "Any Given Sunday" could have been, but wasn't. The casting is excellent -- Gene Hackman gives his best performance in years, and the Keanu Reaves role is one that he can do, the ever-popular "loser with a heart of gold."
Even my wife, who hates football, loves this movie. 'Nuff said.
