Here Comes the Boom Movie Review

I rented Here Comes the Boom at the only RedBox that my tiny little town has. I had heard great things about this 2012 movie and wanted to see for myself.

The movie is set in a school which is about to lose their music program and music teacher due to funding cuts. A biology teacher, Kevin James, decides that he will do whatever it takes to bring the music program back and to save one of his fellow teachers and best friend's job.

The biology teacher decides that he is going to take up kickboxing to raise the money needed for the music program. He has been teaching a class to non-citizens on how to become a citizen and that were he meets his would-be trainer. He blackmails this trainer into teaching him how to fight in Here Comes the Boom. He makes a trade, fighting lessons for citizen lessons.

The first few fights, Kevin James, loses his rear but he never give up; his "children" are too special for that. He keeps going until he reaches the ultimate fight in the UFC.

This movie is comical, romantic, and has a great moral lesson to teach; never give up on anything.

Keven James' character is filled with clumsy moments, a heart-felt teacher, and someone who wants to win the girl.

The last few moments of Here Comes the Boom will have you on the edge of your seat as you watch the biology teacher go up against an ultimate fighter in a breathtaking UFC match. If you haven't seen this movie, you need to watch it.
