An out-of-work wannabe rock star poses as a substitute teacher and after finding out his students are aces in band, enters them into a "Battle of the Bands" competition. This movie was funny and really enjoyable to watch.

Amusing if you're a fan of Jack Black's one man, one trick show; painful if you're not. Spinal Tap lite.

Jack Black's comic energy and timing and an appreciation of rock history give backbone to what would have been an otherwise pretty standard "fish out of water" story. Joan Cusack is also a scene stealer as the uptight principal of the school Black invades. The writing is better than you would expect and the film is a whole lot of fun.

Actually I was bored until Dewey begins teaching the kids how to be Rock Stars. The chemistry between the kids and Jack Black is so real. I couldn't believe that they were acting because whenever they were having fun it literally looked like they were. Summer was adorable as the bossy manager and she and Dewey have the best scenes together. Ofcourse the talent is clearly showed onstage and the kids steal the show. They are AMAZING! Sorry Dewey. The lyrics and the music was as funny as it was entertaining. Too bad they aren't a real band.
