Reviews Featuring Jack Black
Ice Age
Top evolutionary mirth, totally predictable, but loads of fun.
The Cable Guy
Not your average Jim Carrey outing, but certainly one of his better ones. Just don't be misled by the "12" classification – this is a bit of a chiller and isn't for the kiddies.
The School of Rock
More 'The Great Rock and Roll Swindle' than 'Rock and Roll Highschool', this shameless, laugh-free Jack Black vehicle reveals that it really is a long way to the top if you wanna rock and roll.
I Still Know What You Did Last Summer
Even the title doesn’t work.
Jesus' Son
Don’t let the title put you off – this is quite a bit easier going than 'The Passion of the Christ'!
Envy
Roll up for one of the biggest duds of the year. Messrs Stiller and Black should go into hiding after hearing this rank-awful comedy is finally getting a big screen release.
Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy
Definitely weird and very nearly wonderful – and you’ll never look at your local newsreader in the same way again.
Shark Tale
This underwater gangster-meets-gangsta CG animated feature may well have you sleeping with the fishes.
Tropic Thunder
Despite some issues, Tropic Thunder has moments of hilarity and some truly classic lines and performances.
Kung Fu Panda
Better than your typical “family” film, Kung Fu Panda has all the laughs, love, and action you could hope for in any movie, let alone one about a noodle-selling panda doing Kung Fu.
