A fun and enjoyable musical comedy , Jack Black plays unemployed loser who is kicked out of his band, he takes the temp teaching of his best friend think it's a easy way to make money and slack off. But it's not long before he teaches the kids the only thing he knows how too rock and enters them in a battle of the bands. A perfect role for Jack Black but the real stars are the kids themselves.
One of my favourite comic books and probably one of the best comic adaptations. The film is more relative today than when the comic first come out with the state of the media and government corruption. A very dark movie but it also has a very clear and uplifting messages . Well directed with two great central performances. A classic.
