School of Rock, well, it rocked! I had to say that I had my doubts, I mean, I love Jack Black, but this seemed like most of his movies where he just plays the typical junkie and probably has either the same or lame humor. Don't get me wrong, I love Jack, just I was starting to get worried about him being type cast. But School of Rock proved not only to be great, but an incredibly touching movie with some great humor.
Jack plays Dewey Finn, a guitar player who has just got kicked out of his band. He also owes his roommate, a substitute teacher, a lot of money for the rent. So, when Dewey answers the phone that was meant for his roommate and takes a job, posing as his roommate, as the new substitute teacher at a high class prep school. Since he doesn't really care and just wants the money, he just sits back and relaxes. He wants to get back at his band still by competing in Battle of Bands, so he takes these kids and turns them into his rock band, better, into the School of Rock.
This has endless humor and just over all a terrific story that is so touching and I think anyone can appreciate. Even though the ending is just a smidge unrealistic, it's what everyone wanted, and I think we can say that it rocked!
