Too much of everything

Good , But It Is Overrated By Some

Best movie ever!

The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity

If you like Rock music, yes ya ou do and you have to see it. If you do not like Rock music no you do not have to but this film makes you energetic/positive minded and want to go to Rock music concerts or even start your music careers. I really liked the moment when Jack Black (the fake teach) told one of his students/drummer in his band not to think Rock music means that musicians do drugs or be alcoholic. I personally think that he tried to swipe off the negative image of rock music. It is not rock 'n' roll anymore when the musician lose themselves in drug/alcohol abuse. Jack Black throws a big question how the rock music should be and not. For all music lovers, DIS IS A MUST!!!

The School Of RockJack Black carries this musical show on its back all through the movie with the help of Richard and his magic box that has some unusual characters and also offers some great music.

It is clear from fairly early on in "School of Rock" that its primary purpose is to showcase the manic acting talents of Jack Black over everything else. Oftentimes, that can lead to a rather shallow movie (as the plot and auxiliary characters aren't fleshed out as they should be), but in this case the film still ends up being rather entertaining because of the novelty and the music.For a basic plot summary, "School of Rock" tells the story of Dewey Finn (Black), a middle-aged man who crashes (never paying the rent) at the home of enabling friend Ned (Mike White). You see, Dewey still harbors the rock-and-roll band fantasies of his youth despite the fact that his prospects do not look great. One day, however, Dewey intercepts a substitute teaching call for Ned and assumes his identity, showing up completely unprepared at a fancy prep academy for grade school-ers. The one thing Dewey does know how to do/teach? Rock.Like I said, "School of Rock" is primarily a vehicle to showcase Black's manic style of performing, and it does that very well. Black never loses energy in a single scene, and his "Legend of the Rent" performance in front of his pupils (shot all in one take) is one of the funniest scenes I've ever seen on film! I feel like watching too much of Black would be exhausting, but contained in this single movie it is a rush of energy.Two other aspects of the film really keep it entertaining: -The basic concept (teaching children how to rock) has never really been done before, at least that I've on. It is entertaining to see the students go from stuck up preppies to confident rockers over the course of the film.-The music, which is always upbeat and fun to listen to. During the times in the film where the plot drags or becomes a bit too corny, there's always that next musical number right around the corner to look forward to.So, I can consider "School of Rock" very entertaining despite its obvious limitations (being a vehicle film, having a super-cheesy plot, etc.). It won't rocket to the top of any "best of" lists, but it will create a few iconic music-movie moments. As long as you aren't expecting something deep, you'll have fun watching this!

I guess the concept behind School of Rock's story is old as the hills. A good-hearted but too much of a screw-around loser gets kicked out of his natural habitat and has to pretend to be someone else to get around people who have no prejudice against him. Then he screws around some more, doing antics that make you cringe, until his good-heartedness finally wins you over piece by piece, and then the happy ending ensues. Have fun, feel good, bye-bye!Well, Jack Black has a real talent for turning the "feel good" into "feel embarrassed". A good half of this film, when he's moping around and making idiotic jokes and faces, you really have to battle your instinct to shut your eyes and ears to avoid that horrible shame. Because when it comes to that, one can think of no man more obnoxious and annoying than Mr Black.But, luckily for us, School of Rock is not about our chubby narcissistic doofus. It's about the kids who he teaches while on the mission of impersonating his spineless roommate to earn some easy cash. The kids really steal the show, providing the film with enough character versatility and the real-world child issues. And despite being an abysmal teacher of proper things, Jack Black's infantile character manages to reach out to the kids, gain their trust and wake up the talents which the "proper" education tries so hard to mould into something useful, convenient but utterly generic. And from then on, the students take over and lead this unlikely alliance to something that ultimately makes this flick enjoyable and even fun.The "everyone is special, you just need to find your true self" trope gets kinda worn out with time, especially since the real world is not as shiny as it is in the movies, and not everyone is just a vessel of pure talent waiting to be unearthed. But this time, School of Rock managed to nail this theme without getting cloying or force-feeding us that political correctness. And although i would hardly want my kids (if i had any) to be tutored by a lazy bum like Dewey Finn, i'd definitely show them this liberating piece of teen spirit. Because self-confidence is what kids need the most to grow into someone mentally healthy and capable to love and respect himself. And what could be a better source of self-confidence than a sloppy fat guy basking in the self-propagated glory of a rock star, especially if that's what he is really good at.
