It isn't nearly as funny or inspiring as it wants to be, but it makes a legitimate effort.

All in all, it's great family fun.

It delivers exactly what's expected from a flabby mishmash of high school inspirational tale and Mixed Martial Arts fighting exhibitionism ladled out by Adam Sandler running mate Frank Coraci ...

Here Comes the Boom will probably connect like a haymaker with most of its intended audience. The leads are likeable, and the plot, though beyond incredible, is at the very least distracting.

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.

It's nice that the hero goes to the mat for what he believes in. But he's not the only thing that comes down with a thud.

"Here Comes the Boom" is so full of clichés from other, better movies that it is almost plays like a parody of an underdog tale.
