Chow Yun-Fat has an distinctive screen presence; suit-n-tie, stylish sunglasses. Dude just screams lethal. And when the man dual-wields a pair of Berettas, it's like watching a master artisan plying his trade. And the people behind THE REPLACEMENT KILLERS know this all too well. There's the promise of some sweet gunplay and very little else. Sure, there's story, cute Mira Sorvino as tough guy, and plenty of gun porn, but it's all about the promise of high energy well-choreographed shootouts. Style over substance? You bet, but here it's a shameless badge of honor.
