THIS SCHOOL ROCKS!

Rating: 8/10 (26 October 2003)

I usually hate Jack Black but I do love those Richard Linklater movies. And this is a Richard Linklater movie. And although I have liked Shallow Hal and Orange County I've never quite given any credit to Jack Black. You have to give credit where credit is due. And he deserves some credit. School of Rock may be somewhat predictable but it's done in an unpredictable fashion. The humor is smart, the performances are intellectually believable and the story move salong at a fast, inspiring and humorous pace. This may not be the film of a lifetime but it definatly aspires to be better than most and succeeds. School of Rock is more than an entertaining night at the movies the film manages to educate it's audience on moral issues as well spinning ur heart muscles and keeing ur rolling in the aisles with laughter.
