I'll only be reiterating what others have said, and what you've already guessed; is that this movie just works. deadpool 2 full movie watch online
By a lesser director, by a lesser writer, by another actor, School Of Rock might have become among the thousands of cheesy, Nickelodeon-esque, Disney-esque, tween movie. Thankfully, Mike White wrote such a charming though admittedly predictable story, and Richard Linklater steered the this ship safely to land; of a musician way past his time trying to make it big and somehow found inspiration in a classroom full of children of a stuffy school.
Jack Black not only nailed his part, he owned it and killed it. Black is charismatic, enthusiastic, energetic and infectious. He is just fun to watch. Everybody else played their part well, even Joan Cusack who I think is underused. The best part here, must be the process of music making; what it rock, what does it mean to rock, and why rock and roll is so much fun.
This movie is fun. And you won't be disappointed by it.
Jack Black's The Sub? Screw Skipping Class!

With the so-called "music" that fuels people to buying CDs and downloading songs, the genre that seems to be slowly dying is rock. After the emergence of the rap, pop and emo genres the rock genre sees a slow but steady decline in popularity. But before the genre does die away there's one movie that will shine as rock's last stand, a movie that isn't afraid to speak the truth about economy and provide a good laugh. Ladies and gentlemen, I give the School of Rock! In School of Rock, Jack Black plays Dewy Finn; a die-hard and overzealous rocker stuck in the 70's and 80's music era. After being knocked out of his band by the other members he seeks out people to be a part of his new band. However, word of his "excellence" has spread already, and people aren't exactly hot about him trying to form another band. Along with no success to his new band attempt he's also stuck with having to pay a rent for the apartment he shares with his long-time friend Ned, who is practically bossed by his girlfriend. The problem here, Dewy has no money and no job. After failing to sell one of his guitars to get the rent money he gets a call saying that a private elementary school needs a substitute for a class, and Dewy takes it upon himself to take the job. watch 12 strong full movie online free
As the name of the movie might imply, Dewy eventually finds out the fifth grade students he's teaching actually have some musical talent, enough for his band. And behold, the fifth graders become Dewy's new "band", and the movie builds up from there. The one thing that School of Rock of course stands with is classic rock music, which the movie's soundtrack is composed of, all-time classic songs. Not only does the movie play songs from bands such as Led Zeppelin, AC/DC and Jimi Hendrix but it also mentions them as bands that you have to know if you have any clue of what music is.
However, School of Rock stands against more than what it stands for. Jack Black works his magic amazingly to emphasize this with one of my all-time favorite quotes: "Stick it to da man!" The movie also talks about how rock n' roll was the way to give "The Man" hell and how it reached a downfall with one of my favorite jokes (but it's an honest one), the creation of MTV. School of Rock also mentions a few terms used during the era of rock n' roll such as groupies, but it doesn't emphasize these terms that much. This also seems odd in the favor of School of Rock's PG-13 rating, which seems more than misplaced after watching the movie.
As if a movie that stands for true rock music and against the crap that makes up the majority of today's music there's also plenty of laughs to be found. Pretty much every moment of laughter that School of Rock creates is brought up by Jack Black's outrageous personality. With so many classic quotes and jokes brought that show Black's true potential as a comedian, it's almost impossible not to at least chuckle at School of Rock. The fifth grade performers in School of Rock are also very likable characters that get the attention they deserve. The movie does seem to focus on mostly the same young actors/actresses but by the end of the movie the viewer has gotten acquainted with each "band member" of the movie.
If you like rock n' roll or just comedies in general I'd highly recommend School of Rock. In fact, I'd recommend this to most any movie viewer, unless you actually enjoy watching the music that this movie is easily against (rap, pop, emo) obviously. Yet, I'd have to say that anyone should enjoy this movie, even my grandmother liked this movie and went as far as to say that it "rocked", and she was able to tell almost everything that would happen. Now that, is what I call a true family film!

I was a real admirer of richard linklater's movies before watching this one which turned me into his fan. His before sunset had hardly 2 characters nd didn't it make u laugh all t way through. Well this one is a story of a loser jack black (who makes t character come to life giving it his everything) who really thinks he is greatly talented (as we all do sometimes) only to realize he's been thrown out of 'his' rock band and is on t verge of being thrown out of his house.He lands up as an impostor in a prep school soon realising t great potential of t kids to make his dream come true..Winning t battle of t bands.. The kids characters r distinctly carved out from one another nd though some may not be great actors u still feel all r real. This can easily qualify as a musical but its really intended to be comedy for children and adults alike..Which not many movies r able to do.. Don't miss this one.
If you don't love this movie... You might not have a soul.

This movie as a bunch of little kids in it... And they play rock 'n' roll. Can anyone argue against that? Anyone who does looks like Ebeneezer Scrooge! "School of Rock," quite simply, combines the most joyous parts of rock 'n' roll music, a little bit of satire from Spinal Tap (perhaps), and a genuinely touching rock story about following your dreams -- from Almost Famous.
The three films I just named are at a ridiculous, stupid three-way tie for my favorite non-foreign language, non-documentary, major studio movie of all time. It's just that simple. You have Richard Linklater, unarguably the most versatile director living today, and Mike White, who is proving himself to be an insufferably clever screenwriter. Maybe not brilliant, but he's got some solid screenplays under his belt, and he works really well with Jack Black.
Sure, if I put a comment like this on "Mulholland Drive" (like many idiots have) or some other silly (yet admittedly enjoyable) art-house movie, I might seem way more sophisticated; and if I put a comment like on "Control Room" (which I really like as a journalistic documentation) I'd seem more intelligent. I'm also pretty sure that if I qualified foreign language movies and put Wong Kar Wai's "In the Mood for Love" or Jean-Jacques Beineix's "Betty Blue" on my list, I'd look way, way cooler. But who cares? There is so much joy to be had in this movie, it's impossible not to smile while watching it. In fact, I was so filled with joy when I first saw it, I honestly cried. That's how much I love this movie. antman and wasp trailer
