The Replacements (2000)

Posted on January 25, 2011 by laurarachel4

Rated PG-13 I don’t think this film knew what audience they were trying to attract. It’s a story about down and out football players redeeming themselves. Add in some slapstick comedy and a foreseen script. What do you have–I don’t know.  … Continue reading →
