Netflix pick for 4/13/15 – ‘School of Rock’

“School of Rock” is a great 2003 movie in which Jack Black teaches a room full of grade school kids the important of ROCKING OUT. That’s it. If you need a movie to be about more than that, then you are asking for too much out of this world, because what could be more important, especially to the youth of this country, than ROCKING OUT? Nothing, that’s what.

Okay, sure, there are other things in this movie, like how Jack Black’s character of Dewey has to learn how to finally grow up and be a responsible adult, all the while his free-spirited nature rubs off on the kids in his class in the right way and he even gets the uptight school administration to lighten up a bit, but make no mistake, this movie about a fraudulent substitute teacher trying to turn his class into a band so they could win a Battle of the Bands competition is really about the immense power of rock and roll, and how cool it is to listen to Led Zeppelin while barreling down a wintery road in one’s all-white creeper van.

“School of Rock” is a very cool, fun movie and you can check that out here on the Netflix Instant right now.
