Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny (3 Stars)


Jack Black and Kyle Gass meet in Venice Beach, where together they become Tenacious D and quest to find the “pick of destiny.”

Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny has a lot of cool music and funny surreal sequences. The story is campy and unoriginal, and it seems that style and shameless self-promotion are the two driving forces in this film. Gass is very awkward on the screen, and seems to be badly lacking the experience required to play such an important role. Either they should’ve got him an acting coach, or they should’ve brought in Owen Wilson, or one of their other buddies to play KG.

Forgettable, but funny – 3 Stars
