The most dispiriting thing about The Replacement Killers is that it proves Chow [Yun-Fat]'s charisma repressible.April 27, 2006
An unworthy vehicle for a great star like Chow Yun-fat.March 19, 2003
Will serve as a suitable replacement when [Chow Yun Fat's] better films are already rented out for the weekend.May 19, 2009
The John Woo school of the ballet of bullets gets a full dose of Sam Peckinpah under the steady hand of director Antoine Fuqua's finely framed tale of revenge.July 27, 2002
Style over substance all the way, but at least it's not boring.January 29, 2005
The Replacement Killers is not a very good film, but it is impossible to deny that it has a certain beauty.January 01, 2000
Fuqua...obviously knows a good thing when he sees one and lets Chow dominate The Replacement Killers so thoroughly that the movie's liabilities...slide by relatively painlessly.March 10, 2016
...it's ultimately impossible not to wonder what Chow, making his English-language debut here, was thinking when he signed up for the project.
