Tenacious D in ‘The Pick of Destiny’ is lots of fun
17/11/2006 - 16:28:11Tenacious D in ‘The Pick of Destiny’
Director: Liam Lynch
Cast: Jack Black, Kyle Gass, Tim Robbins, Ben Stiller, Colin Hanks
One of the most off-centre films of the year, and one that delivers fun and laughter all the way through.
Black and Gass – who wrote the screenplay – play a couple of musicians who form a band – the Tenacious D of the title – with the ambition of it being the world’s greatest.
To achieve such lofty heights they must lay their hands on the magical guitar pick in a distant rock ‘n roll museum.
It’s simply a lot of fun and the film is made more interesting by the cameos provided by the likes of Robbins, Stiller, Hanks and Meat Loaf.
Star Rating: 4/5
