Tenacious D in the Pick of Destiny

Starring: Jack Black, Kyle Gass, Jason Reed, Ronie James Dio, Troy Gentile

Directed by: Liam Lynch

RS: 2.5of 4 Stars

In this deliberately dumb comedy, Jack Black and Kyle Gass play wanna-be rock gods on a quest to find the guitar pick that holds the power of rockness. Lame plot, but surprising cameos (Ben Stiller as a Ronnie James Dio look-alike, and an awesome Tim Robbins as the D's deranged nemesis) keep things moving. Same goes for the neoclassical-metal tunes sprinkled throughout, which prove Black and Gass have the chops, just not any soul.
