    This movie rocks!!!!!!!!!

    Jack Black shines in this movie, and so do the kids. It is a movie that I would watch over and over again! The songs that are in it totally rock!!! The School of Rock (the group of kids) are fantastic, and the songs that they sing rock. There are a lot of memorable quotes from this movie. This movie is excellent, and would recomend it to anyone..
