6/10
Spinal Tap of the 2000s
1 October 2021
In early 2000's everybody was talking about Tenacious D. But I wasn't interested. Somebody played me the band's cd album but I didn't get the comedy rock. I used to take my rock and metal so seriously that joke music was a big no no. I'm still quite picky when it comes to humorous music but have relaxed a bit and don't be as extremist anymore. And now I also finally made myself to watch this movie, just because it's an important piece of pop culture history.

At first I didn't like the musical style. I like music and I like movies but I don't often like movies that work like a musical. But as the movie went on I started to accept it and like it. I'm not the biggest fan of Jack Black either but he definitely is in his own element in this movie. His enthusiasm for both rock music and comedy is something that is hard to resist even if you start a bit cynical.

I don't know if it's a movie I'd like to watch again...maybe not anytime soon. But I think it deserves points for the sheer creativity, craziness, and all the effort that went into it. Pretty good music comedy after all.
