Review - Joe Somebody
Cliched, but Tim Allen makes it enjoyable. Jim Belushi as the martial arts instructor is pretty funny too.

One day he gets beat up in the parking lot in a dispute over a parking space while Natalie looks on. Joe sulks at first, until Meg challenges him. He decides to fight back. He takes self-defense lessons and challenges the guy who beat him to a rematch. This makes him popular at work and he's soon hanging with the cool guys. He's popular with everyone.
