David McK (3372 KP) rated School of Rock (2003) in Movies

May 21, 2021

Early noughties (2003) Jack Black musical comedy, in which he plays a slacker guitarist who is kicked out of his band and then gets a job impersonating a substitute teacher at a local high class school in order to pay his rent.

Initially reluctant to do any work at all or to engage with his class, that changes when he hears them during a music class and then decides to form a band so that he can enter the local 'battle of the bands', with himself as the lead singer (which later changes). Cue life lessons in confidence, sticking up for yourself, etc etc...

Glorious to look at, Tarantino’s love letter to 60’s Hollywood.

Saggy and overlong in places, this feels like Tarantino needed reining in at times. As such this feels like a slightly flawed masterpiece.... Tarantino’s Mona Lisa with a few accidental smudges. But its a movie that oozes style in recreating Hollywood in the late 60's.

That is until he starts a new year of school when he meets Sam played by Emma Watson and Patrick (Ezra Miller) two very free spirited older students and their friends. They help Charlie discover love, friendship and music, encourage him to be the writer he can be, and give him life. But then it's time for them to move on for college, and the thoughts that Charlie has been keeping inside about his aunt threaten to spill over and take away his newfound confidence
