Reviews for this film from our members:
- Luke Bonanno @ DVDizzy.com
- Excerpt: The most telling precedent for this may be the movies of Frank Capra, sentimental, light-hearted fare that some derided as “Capra-corn.”
- Kevin Carr @ 7M Pictures
- Excerpt: Honestly, I was surprised that I enjoyed “Here Comes the Boom” as much as I did. Sometimes movies like this can do that, and that’s a good thing.
- Jim Dixon @ Examiner.com
- Excerpt: “Here Comes the Boom,” which not only stars Kevin James but was co-written by him as well, is the best thing the actor has done in years. Although this starts out threatening to be “Bad Teacher” minus Cameron Diaz in push-up bras, it rapidly turns into something closer to “The Dead Poets Society” meets “Warrior.” It’s a winning combination.
- Kimberly Gadette @ Doddle
- Excerpt: Kevin James finally punches out a good one.
- Dan Lybarger @ KCActive.com
- Excerpt: Kevin James is an appealing performer who’d probably be even more likable if he could pick out better scripts.
- Jason McKiernan @ Next Projection
- Excerpt: …the only thing serious about Here Comes the Boom is how offensively moronic it is, and how egregiously it peddles its moronism as heartfelt sentiment.
