I just love watching this movie, and I only have the VHS version. I doubt that there is a better "shootem up" movie around. I also enjoy the relationship develop between Chow Yun-Fat's and Mira Sorvino's characters. All the acting was good to me. As for Mira Sorvino, there is probably not a hotter actress with a gun in her hand as she. If you like seeing the bad guys get what they deserve, this is the movie for you! June 24, 2008

There's not much I can say that hasn't been covered. I purchased the "extended edition" then this one. Why? This one has all the good special features.

I know it's hard to justify buying a movie twice. But the extras on this one are worth as much as the extended cut on the other version. May 27, 2008

Hi folks! This film is having a good stuffs of non stop action and presented in 1080P with beautiful transfer and blowing sound. You will enjoy the evening with a bag of popocorn disappearing just like that as the action scenes. Yun fat is known to us and become famous in USA with this film and recently we saw him hin at Pirates at Worlds end. Folks you can try this one for your collection and never fails. March 9, 2008

Replacement Killers stars Chow Yun-Fat(John Lee) & Mira Sorvino(Meg Coburn) in an action packed blastfest. Those who are familiar with Chow Yun-Fat(Killer & Hard Boiled)knows what he brings to the table. Lots of gunplay and high body counts. Even though this pales in comparison to his other two movies it still delivers.

John Lee works as a hitman until he decides not to pull off his last hit. This angers his employer and now he wants John dead. Meg Coburn finds herself caught in this feud and has to defend herself as well. The acting is ok but it's the action that counts. And you get a good dose of it. Cheesy at times but it never gets weak.

If you're new to Chow Yun Fat, his earlier movies The Killer and Hard Boiled are Gun-Fu at it's finest. I recommend those first but this is still good. February 11, 2008

It is really worth the money if you want to know some of the background story lines. February 10, 2008
