A very very underrated comedy that didn't get the attention it deserved. Adam Carolla pulls out a terrific performance as down on his luck former boxer turned carpenter Jerry Ferro who gets one last shot at glory. Highly recommended.

I'm a big fan of Adam Carolla, so I wanted to see his movie. It's pretty average--though he's an excellent stand-up comedian and podcast host, he's not a very good actor. There are some pretty amusing parts--not wildly hilarious, but neither is it painfully bad. It's cheap, so not a huge investment for a couple of hours of entertainment.

This is a hard movie to describe, because Adam Carolla chose to write a clever and hilarious movie that blends a few genres, and reinvents them at the same time. Highly recommend this to anyone who appreciates the courage it takes to make an independent movie that is different from all the garbage that studios put out - different, in a good way. :)

An under rated sports comedy
Trust me, I don't know who could not enjoy this movie. It's well directed, funny and touching. Carolla really needs to start getting more credit for his talent.

Great Story
A nice, honest, funny, and smart story for adults. If you like underdogs, great dialogue and memorable characters this will be a treat. Movies this good are few and far between.

Funniest Scene Ever

Independent movie that you will not regret seeing
The previous reviews are accurate. I would just like to add that I have been waiting to see this movie since Adam first brought it up on his radio show. Read more
