At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

Look, I know this movie might be cheesy sometimes but it's so much fun. It's pure entertainment. I've seen this movie like 8 times for now and I love it. Besides me and my friend learned the song lyrics of this movie. The musical part of this movie is a masterpiece, this is how you do a funny but extremely cool soundtrack. I still love this movie maybe because of the nostalgia, but it definiately deserves a 10.

To become the greatest band of all time, two slacker, wannabe-rockers set out on a quest to steal a legendary guitar pick that gives its holders incredible guitar skills, from a maximum security Rock and Roll museum. Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny is a film that a friend of mine actually told me to see years ago and when i actually gave it a fair shot? I was blown away by how great it was especially Jack Black did an isane amount of good job. The overall acting in general was pretty good and so was the humor but that epic showdown with the devil in the end? Was definitely the best part of the entire movie. If you've never seen this film in your life please watch it it's really really fun and has cool music too. (A+)

In Kickapoo, Missouri, JB (Jack Black) grew up as the black sheep in a religious family. He runs away to Hollywood... California. He finds Kyle Gass playing guitar on Venice Beach and he begs to join him. Eventually JB discovers that Kyle is a bald hopeless loser who is supported by his parents. With no money, they decide to form a band named after birth marks on their butts, Tenacious D. They discover that all the great bands have the same guitar pick. It's the Pick of Destiny made from a demon's tooth and presently housed in the Rock and Roll History Museum.Kyle Gass needs to start off a little nicer. Jack Black is good. The duo does build a nice friendship. The quest is a good idea but separating them is not. They work best together. There is some fun but it comes and goes. Also the guys' music is same over and over again. It would be terrific to have a different sound in the movie although the rock battle with the demon is loads of fun. This stoner comedy is funny in small doses.

Tenacious D are a good band, and there quite funny in that band.But in this film they are NOT funny.I didn't laugh once in this whole movie & it was just basically a huge let-down.Because i thought it would be a decent comedy because it was a film about Tenacious D and it obviously had them two in it.However...This film was poorly written, had scenes in it that didn't add any humour in to it just basically took up some time in the movie and made it even more of a waste of time.As well as this Tenacious D are great song writers however some of the "songs" in this were poor, an awful soundtrack for an awful film.Even if you like Tenacious D, save your time, do not watch this movie!
