Editorial Review:
Product Description: A diehard rock guitarist-turned-substitute-teacher transforms a class of fifth graders into a high-voltage rock group. His lesson: to lead the kids on to victory in the local battle of the bands competition. Studio: Paramount Home Video Release Date: 08/22/2006 Starring: Jack Black Joan Cusack Rating: Pg13
Amazon.com: Turbo-charged comic Jack Black shakes School of Rock to its foundations, wailing with born-again metalhead passion as Dewey Finn, a guitarist who gets kicked out of a band because he grandstands too much--or, to put it another way, enjoys himself. Through an intercepted phone call, Finn gets a job as a substitute teacher for a fifth grade class at a private grade school. Neither students nor teacher quite know what to do with each other until Finn discovers that some of his young charges can play instruments; at once he starts turning them into a blistering rock & roll troupe that can crush his former band at an upcoming competition. School of Rock is silly and formulaic, but director Richard Linklater (Dazed and Confused), writer Mike White (The Good Girl), and especially Black and co-star Joan Cusack invest the formulas with such glee that the movie is irresistibly fun. --Bret Fetzer

OK this is exagerrated, medium-quality drama. But it's also sweet, non-violent, and has most of the right messages. And some good music too. In the genre of "wronged adult apparent loser molds group of kids into a winning team", School of Rock is actually exceptional for its emphasis on heart, self-expression, and excellence as their own rewards. A good movie to watch with your kids, and talk about regarding school. And a chance for parents of the 60s and 70s to get a bit nostalgic too.

School of Rock starring Jack Black is a decent comedy about a slaker who poses as a teacher and ends inspiring his students about the history of rock music. The story is cool but something's missing and I can't figure out what it is? I can't stand Sarah Silverman, she's an unfunny slob while Joan Cusak knows a thing or two about comic timing. Great family flick, it's a mixed bag for me.

My family and I love this move!. I bought it because according to "Product Details", the movie could be watched in English or Spanish. However, the movie only comes in English and some of my family members don't speak english. It was a let down :(

My 2 children talked me into seeing "School of Rock". I am so glad they did. What a great movie. We need more movies like this one.

I just saw this on Cartoon Network today for the first time. I loved it! It is a (very) well-written film.
An unsuccessful rocker gets fired from his own band. Soon, he poses for a job as a substitute teacher at a private school. Learning that the students are talented at playing music, he gets an idea: secretly forming a rock band with the class for the next Battle-of-the-Bands competition!
Trust me, if you love rock and roll, this film is for you!
