Review of Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny (2006) by Alexander D — 17 Sep 2011
Jack Black stars in most likely his first "hard-R" comedy. Don't get me wrong, the songs in THE PICK OF DESTINY are hysterical--Jack Black is a great musician and his rock duo, Tenacious D, has a talent with humor--but as for the film, it's so hard to get through to the general point with all the F-bombs and lewd double entendres in the way.
In fact, I don't think I watched the entire thing--my friend just showed me the (umm...) "funniest" scenes, and when he asked me if I wanted to watch more, I tried to calmly said, "Noo, I'm absolutely fine, thank you.
" If you want a good Jack Black music movie, watch THE SCHOOL OF ROCK instead. It's much funnier and less vulgar and boring. If you still want to hear Tenacious D, listen to this film's soundtrack.
That, at least, is a brilliant work of humor.
