Reviews
|
Chicago Tribune -
Once it gets going and commits to its time-worn inspirational formula, it's not half-bad.

|
Boxoffice Magazine -
Like James in the ring, it doesn't pack a lot of power, but it comes out swinging and sweats for applause.
|
|
Boston Globe -
Kevin James's latest comedy doesn't promise any bing or bang, only boom. Take it at its word.
|
|
Entertainment Weekly -
A cloddish, harmlessly drecky comedy from the Sandler factory of crude mush.
|
|
Variety -
Hands of stone meet heads of air in Here Comes the Boom, a sports story so daffy it may as well star Kevin James.
