School of rock review

Teaching children would not be the most obvious of solutions, but when Dewey sees his chance to earn some extra money, he can’t get to the chalkboard quick enough! After a day of Dewey putting his feet up and listening to children endlessly begging for learning and education, he soon comes to realise that the children have a very special talent for music.

Suddenly, Dewey’s enthusiasm for his teaching job no longer is the centre of attention in his mind; spotting a peculiar way to put a band together, he then replaces curriculum lessons with a schedule based around rock, consisting of homework involving listening to Dewey’s collection of rock CD’s. With the Battle of the Bands contest getting even closer, Dewey has to match his snobby school children to his hard-rocking competition.

School of rock has everything a successful rock band needs, from lead guitarist to groupies, just inside the classroom. There’s a feel good feel to the , changing Dewey for the better, he learns to genuinely see the talent in the children.

What impressed me most about School of rock is the hilarious comedy enough to make you wet your pants.

Not everyone will enjoy School of Rock, and it's one of those films that'll require you to be in a good mood to enjoy, but if you are - you definitely will.
