 | Come on Jack Black, anyone can fake playing a guitar solo better then you can. You could at least move your fingers up and down instead of moving the guitar neck up and down. Zack seem to know what he is doing but being a guitarist myself for the past 5 years, i make Zack looks like an amatuer. What im i saying....Zack is just an 11 yr old kid. He has lots to learn to be good. As far as the movie goes, Sarah Silverman is a good actress but she is not what one reviewer said 'hot'. There are some funny scenes in this movie and the direction is quite good. Watch it if your a Jack Black fan....watch Cable guy too since he was in that one as well.
Rock on! |

| I for one think this DVD is AB-FAB. One problem that I seemed to have with this DVD was that when I played in on my computer DVD with Windows Media Player 9 & 10 the sound would waver in and out like someone was slightly playing with the controls. This was annoying. The reason why I choose to view movies on the computer is because I have a nice sound system hooked up to it, plus the 17" monitor screen is larger than our regular 13" TV. The DVD plays fine in a regular DVD player.
This week out of necessity I stumbled across the term "CoDec" for computers that essentially is the computer's ability to decode the coded information on digital media, DVD and music files. It's a little confusing at first but after a while I learned that a good amount of people don't like the way Windows Media Player works. So I disabled that player and downloaded "K-Lite Mega Codec Pack". There's two media players that come with it and now the sound problem is fixed! It turned out to be a codec problem.
If you've ever had a problem with a movie's sound then it may pay off to look into getting a better media player and codec pack.
Cheers,

| I watched this movie with my kids and they liked it a lot! As a music fan, I appreciated some of the music references but as an adult I thought this movie was okay. Jack Black plays a loveable loser who loves his music. Definitely worth watching with your kids on family movie night. |
