"For those about to rock, I salute you"

Rating: 9/10 (11 November 2003)

I loved this movie.
Jack Black is terrific in this movie. Whether the character he plays in this movie was written this way, it is a role that suits him to a T.
I was surprised that the kids in this movie played as large a part as they did. It can always be a little bit of a worry making comedies with kids in it, let alone first time actors. the kids who play significant roles pull it off marvelously, especially the characters of Summer and Billy, the band's stylist.
It is probably the first movie I have seen in which NOT ONE of the audience left during the final credits.
the soundtrack is excellent as well. I had my foot tapping along with the rock songs, especially at the end.
The fact I got in for free to this movie at a special preview, was an added bonus. I would still pay to see this.
