Former collegiate wrestler Scott Voss (Kevin James) is a 42-year-old, apathetic high school teacher. When budget cutbacks threaten to cancel some of the school’s programs and lay off its music teacher (Henry Winkler), Scott creates a scheme to raise money by moonlighting as a mixed martial arts fighter. Everyone thinks Scott is crazy – most of all the school nurse, Bella (Salma Hayek). In his quest, Scott gains something he never expected as he inspires his students and becomes a sensation that rallies the entire school.

Critics Consensus: Here Comes the Boom benefits from Kevin James's genial presence but the film doesn't deliver enough laughs to live up to its title -- or enough satisfying plot to make up the difference.

Give the film a try. It'll win you over before the credits roll.

"Here Comes The Boom isn't the best movie in the world (Creed and Creed II will get you beatings and a great story) but it's sentimental, gripping and funny."

I have no qualms about saying that anyone who appreciates Kevin James will unquestionably appreciate Here Comes the Boom.

The formulaic fight movie is boosted by the built-in energy of UFC events and the rock soundtrack... By the time the last fight starts the audience is totally invested, cringing with every blow and cheering each successful punch.

The way James, Rutten, and Winkler connect is engaging and amusing, and Here Comes the Boom is moderately successful on that chemistry alone. And if something can crack my cold, cold heart, that's a victory.
