I like Kevin James, I watched him on the "King of Queens" all the time it was something I could identify with. And I think this movie will be something we can all identify with, schools and sports. It's about time we all had something to laugh about even if it is about violent sports ie "wrestling,boxing,and martial arts" My Daddy was not only a ballroom dancer he boxed professionally in the 4o's. My grandfather watched wrestling every Sat nite with his 6pack I was always invited to these events however I never cared for the sport except for the martial arts thing, I earned my 1st degree black belt when I was young so I can identify with this movie. Wrestling,boxing martial arts will always be around no matter what anybody says and yep they are violent sports but managed well they can help direct negative energies out the window of anyones' evil soul. This looks to be a "feel good" movie almost reminds me of "Rocky" and I am hoping it will be an inspiring film however this again is one of those films that will be at the video store a few weeks after its debut. I'd say a little more than 9ml but not by much. I hope I'm wrong and this will not be a "knock out"

I believe Kevin James will pull in over 9 mil on this one. His humor is always awesome. I have loved him since "Chuck and Larry" with Adam Sandler. I would love to see this go big for him. He is such a great guy. It's so rare nowadays to find a good, decent film to enjoy. I may have to have this one on disc.
