Sadly uses up all it's creative juices in the beginning

Rating: 3/10 (14 March 2007)

Tenacious D rock, director Liam Lynch rocks, and the old HBO TV show rocks, so to say that I was looking forward to this film is an understatement. Making Meatloaf JB's father was a stroke of genius, but sadly nothing to do after the beginning his character disappears from the film (except for a lame hallucination). Dio having a cameo was great too sadly the movie can't live up to the admittedly great beginning opting to go the route of lame jokes and an uninspired plot. (roadtrip to find a fabled guitar pick made from Satan's tooth) Tenacious D deserves much better than this. Don't know if I'd even recommend it to die hard fans of the D, as owning the Masterworks collection, the first Cd, and seeing them in concert multiple times, I, myself might fall into that category. This movie definitely didn't rock my (expletive deleted) socks off.
My Grade: D+
