Tenacious D in The Best Comedy of the Year 2006

Rating: Null/10 (29 November 2007)

When i heard that Jack Black was working on another rock comedy i was totally excited because i really love "The School of Rock". But later i just forget about it because it wasn't release in Mexico and also because i knew Tenacious D as the Jack Black band but i never heard anything of Tenacious D music. Until one month ago that i heard the song "The Metal" in the Guitar Hero demo and i really like it so i came here to investigate about the film but in the film releases it wasn't Mexico. I start looking the DVD and finally one week ago i get it. I saw the film that same day and i really enjoy it.
For me this is one of the best comedies of the year, along with Borat film and Nacho Libre, also with Jack Black.
I think i enjoy this film so much because i love rock music so i find this as a tribute to all the people who have the rock music in their hearts. And of course, because is nothing but hilarious; with Jack Black that for me is one the best comedians right now and also a great musician.
The plot is really funny, is about the start of Tenacious D, how JB and KG know each other and also involves one of the darkest (and funniest)secrets in rock history about the Pick of Destiny.
The cast is great, like i said Jack Black is hilarious and the same of Kyle Gass. And with many cameos like Ronnie James Dio, Meat Loaft, Ben Stiler, Tim Robbins and Dave Grohl as the devil. For me the most hilarious is the one of Tim Robbins, is just great and very different of all the work of Tim.
About the music: as i said, i never heard anything of Tenacious D but now i'm a fan and i want all their albums. The lyrics are really funny and they play really good, specially the last song in the film with Dave Grohl's voice and drum is amazing.
As a conclusion: i think that you don't need to be a hard core fan of the band to enjoy the film but i'm pretty sure that i enjoy a lot this film because i love rock music. Excellent comedy. 10/10
DVD: Excellent, i love all the deleted scenes and the making of the film and soundtrack. Also contains the music video of the song "P.O.D." and comments of Jack Black, Kyle Gass and the director Liam Lynch.
