Three Stooges Does School of Rock in Mexico

Rating: 4/10 (19 June 2006)

"Nacho Libre" relies for its entertainment value on the sight of Jack Black's fat, naked belly as he is beaten up on by much larger, more muscular men.
There's also lots of "humor" milked from Mexicans. Boy, Mexicans are funny. They are either really fat, or really skinny, or really horny, ugly women. They all talk funny. Mexicans! If Jack Black's fat belly and jokes about Mexicans floats your boat, you will love this movie.
For the rest of us? It's kind of a bore, really.
My mind kept wandering: "Boy, this is a campy movie. What a weird, loud soundtrack. How are all these jokes about Mexicans going to go down during our inflamed immigration debate? Are there people out there who will find this funny? Can't anybody ever be on screen except Jack Black in a movie starring Jack Black? Are there really people who will find the sight of his naked, fat belly so very funny that they want to stare at it for 90 minutes?"
Oh, yeah, fat loser Jack Black also has a crush on a very pretty woman. Wow, how original. Didn't Bob Hope milk that joke to death? Not to mention Adam Sandler, etc, etc, etc?
