Excellent and horrible both in the same movie.
Thats my take.
Superb parody of the one aspect of a sector of the fitness industry, with Global Gyms owner Ben Stiller barking out their motto in a commercial, "We're better then you -and we know it!". The whole sector of the gyms that are shallow self absorbed obsessive fitness scene vs Average Joes Gym across the street. Equally good casting for Average Joes.
Stillers character parody was priceless. As good as he was spoofing the modeling industy in Zoolander. Also the "ESPN8" take off was classic, showing a bunch of non mainstreat sports. But the recurring play of the second announcer was just plain stupid. Also all the lowbrow hurt scenes, you know where someone tosses a wrench at someone and seriously hurts them and the rest respond apathetically. It was ok the 1st time, after 10 times it's enough.
Great borrow from Adam Sandlers Waterboy on how one character on the Average team musters up courage and energy to play better by seeing his email Asian bride with another guy in the audience. But they only show it once during a small part of only one match. It was a 32 team tournament. Could have replayed his mustering several more times.
All in all it was both great and bad.
