This movie is fun fun FUN!

Rating: 7/10 (13 April 2004)

The energetic Jack Black shines as Dewey, a 30-or-so Rock 'n' Roll lover who can't get his life together. He's being thrown out of his own band and his friend/roommate Ned wants him to finally pay his part of the rent. Then a phonecall throws his whole life around...
A hot-shot school wants Ned to substitute for some sick teacher, but Dewey decides to check the place out for himself. It turns out his 10 year old students know how to play some pretty cool music. A band, the 'School of Rock', is born!
Black is amazing in this one as he is hyped up the entire movie but he just won't get irritating. Mike White, who apparently wrote the movie, has the perfect face for the nerdy Ned and the kids all play really well, with the 'Summer' kid the star of the youngsters.
The movie ends a little bit too cliche, but the rollercoaster of laughs beforehand make up for that. A good movie all around.
7/10.
