This film "ROCKS!"

4 stars

PLOT

Overly enthusiastic guitarist Dewey Finn (Jack Black) gets thrown out of his bar band and finds himself in desperate need of work. Posing as a substitute music teacher at an elite private elementary school, he exposes his students to the hard rock gods he idolizes and emulates -- much to the consternation of the uptight principal (Joan Cusack). As he gets his privileged and precocious charges in touch with their inner rock 'n' roll animals, he imagines redemption at a local Battle of the Bands.

MY OPINION

School of Rock, was a really funny film, the music is very fitting, Jack Black just nails the personality, everything about this film ROCKS. I highly recommend it because it is funny.
