Contentar Best movie of this year hands down!
Portia Hilton Blistering performances.
kevandeb I have to admit I am a sucker for Kevin James, ever since King of Queens was broadcast in the UK I have loved the persona he plays as the 'average joe' he typifies what most of us guys do in life or would like to do and that is to act like a kid, never grow up and do as little as possible!! His transposition to the big screen has not been without troubles and whilst this is a bit kitsch, borrows from other movies, I still will forgive his choices as he is, like Simon Pegg, so likable that watching him gives a warm feeling like a mug of cocoa on a rainy day. Not an Oscar winner but an above average afternoon movie that is easily watchable
Tina Marie This was such a fun and inspiring movie. Easy to watch, nothing to hide from kids in the room. It delivered a solid message without heaping a ton of depressing material on its audience before making it's point. A lot of inspirational movies consist of 90 minutes of guilt and tears followed by 5 minutes of hope. This one was great all around and easy on the heart. The diverse cast, realistic dialogue and down-to-earth characters were a breath of fresh air as well. Overall, very well done, even if it didn't blow people out of the water in any particular way, more movies like this need to exist. Salma Hayek played a great, realistic role as a woman with basic dating standards. Thank you! Her dialogue was playful and real, delivered naturally. Kevin James did a great job embodying the bogged down feeling real teachers experience. His character was very believable and i'm grateful for his honest role, honest heart and participation in this exaggerated but otherwise very real story about school funding and what it does to the people trying to keep the wheels turning.

yuvraj-awasthi Here Comes the Boom is a nice comedy and you would definitely enjoy the work of Frank Coraci as a Biology teacher. I am not a big fan of comedies but this one came as a surprise. The movie has a good story line and will inspire anyone who understands that becoming a professional MMA fighter is not an easy thing. It shows how stupid the efforts might look, there is always a hope and a positive attitude can help you win the world. The last fight is really good and you can feel the attachment. There are some touching scenes which would make you feel like crying. It is nice movie to watch with your friends or with your kids. It is definitely worth watching, give it a shot and you won't regret it!
