The Replacements (2000)

★★★1/2

After Washington’s football team goes on strike, the owner of the team decides to let the replacement coach hire replacement football players; they range from a hotheaded army man, to a cocky Welshman with a swift leg. However, the team must learn to get a long and play as a team but things seems to fall apart with the actual football team badgers them days before a big game. I really enjoyed this movie even though it’s cliché. It’s heart-warming, it’s funny and you can really feel that the characters are different but share a common interest in football. It was a great and inspiring underdog story.
