Beware, here comes the bomb

Here Comes The Boom (12A)

HH

Dir: Frank Coraci

With: Kevin James, Henry Winkler, Salma Hayek

Runtime: 105 minutes

KEVIN James has made a career out of seeing how many laughs he can get from putting his body through various pratfalls. With Here Comes The Boom he tweaks the formula slightly to generate chuckles from how many ways he can get beaten up. As usual, the biggest blow comes to audience intelligence. James plays apathetic teacher Scott Voss who is moved into action when cuts threaten to axe his high school's inspirational music teacher (Henry Winkler), resorting to mixed martial arts fighting in a bid to raise the funds to save him.
