An absurd movie about a no-good wanna-be Rocker who happens into a substitute teaching gig at a high-falutin' preparatory school, happens upon immensely talented kids, and finds his calling in teaching them how to Rock. Of course everybody freaks out until they see the show, and then of course they Rock too. The one shining point was Joan Cusak's performance as the wound-up-tight principal. I think the kids might enjoy it, and there's nothing there to harm them, but for adults, it's a complete waste of time.

I take it up just a notch... While it is rather unbelievable, it is a fun movie. Jack Black had to be having a blast making it and I always love Joan Cusak. We did let the girls watch it (ages 5 & 7) and they enjoyed it immensly. We didn't feel there was anything to be too concerned about except for the obvious rebellion against ridiculous parents.
