"As good as it gets"---It started off in a rather ordinary fashion, it,then, kind of grew on you. As far as movies go, there are much better movies than this one.The acting was fine for all the main characters, the story line was only so so. I am sure a lot of people really like this movie, but only tolerated by this movie goer.

"The replacement killers"--- Chow Yun-fat needs a better script, a better plot,a more refined acting skill, a better way to say his lines, a better director, a leaner physique, a few acting lessons from our Pui-Ching drama great Chung gain-Fai ( class of 1955), and then maybe and barely maybe Fat-Chai has a chance to be a recognized name on the international movie scene. To carry a bad movie like this one takes a lot more than Chow Yun-fat can offer at this point of his career. What a complete waste of time and money to see this piece of first rate garbage.
