Customer Rating:
Summary: Tenaciously D issapointed
Comment: This was not worth the money at all. I love rock-n-roll parady like SPINAL TAP, THE SCHOOL OF ROCK and really thought that this would be good and funny, boy was I wrong. It really sucked, way too stupid and way too immature, even for me a 46 yr old teenager. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. Jack needs to go back to the drawingboard before attempting another one of these.

Summary: hilarious.
Comment: wish there was a little more music in it but they did a great job. strawberry river = LOL.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Enjoyable even if you aren't into rock
Comment: I'm 71 and don't know much about rock in general, and even less about heavy metal. Yet I found this small film to be a lot of fun. Unlike a metal rock concert, I could actually hear and understand the lyrics (maybe it helped that I watched it on TV with closed captions.)
The story is about a kid (played by Jack Black) who leaves his rigid religious parent's home after a rock poster comes to life (or he imagines it; either interpretation fits) and predicts his future success. He meets the partner of his destiny (Kyle Gass) in la la land. Initially jb becomes kg's apprentice after mistaking him for a successful master guitarist guru. JB learns that kg is just a loser. Then they notice the same model pick in photos of all the top guitarists. The rest of the story is their quest to get the holy (satanic, that is) grail pick.
Ben Stiller is easy to recognize in his cameo role, but I didn't recognize Tim Robbins and I wouldn't recognize Meatloaf.
Customer Rating:
Summary: good movie for a rock fan
Comment: Good movie lame sometimes but a good movie and the final battle is a master piece.
Customer Rating:
Summary: It was ok.
Comment: The cameos from DIO, Meat Loaf, and the story of the pick kept my interest for a little while...but movie got lame after that. Funny to Dave Grohl from Nirvana playing metal.....but not that funny.
