Jack Black in a role that obviously was made for him.

Rating: 9/10 (27 May 2017)

This film is funny, human, interesting, and entertaining from start to finish! That can be said of very few films. Jack Black is hilarious and in his element--boy is he ever! He is funny, frenetic, and actually believable in his passion for classic rock. He is outstanding in his interaction with the kids. Kind but firm in guiding them, but always with good humor and never condescending. Clever in assigning them roles in the band that please them. Jack Black deserved an Academy Award award for his performance in this movie, as did the film. He was perfect. The kids, too, were great. Other supporting cast members were also fine.
