Replacements, The

This would-be sports comedy, starring Keanu Reeves as the leader of a group of subpar athletes who get a shot at the big time during a players’ strike, is so predictably lame it repeatedly cuts to shots of cavorting cheerleaders just to keep your attention. By the time it’s over, you’ll feel as if you’ve been beaten over the head with a carrot on a stick.
