Whoa, Dude!

Rating: 2/10 (16 November 2006)

Jack Black continues his psychopathic obsession with satirizing the great rock stars in this preposterous farce of a movie. He and his partner are Tenacious D, which is the most profane, raucous, drugged, and filthy rock band of all time. If you like this kind of Neanderthal farce filled with all of the sophomoric paraphernalia of rock bands, more power to you. And, if you love drugs and gratuitous profanity of the most juvenile nature, you will love this film. But if you have more things on your mind than which rock star wields the most demonic pick on a guitar, please avoid this film like the bubonic plague or the AIDS virus. The rock gods are fully satirical in their own silly majesty without depending on disgusting and fat boys like Black to characterize them. I guess Black does seem to be converted to a hatred of Satan in the end. But, those creepies and lifeforms with French-fried brains who worship rock and drug paraphernalia shouldn't be expected to appreciate this nuance of salvation through grace. Just say no! There are some nice-looking extras in this film, though. And, Satan really puts on an impressive rock show in this film, unlike the pathetic Tenacious D.
