In Venice Beach, naive Midwesterner JB bonds with local slacker KG and they form the rock band Tenacious D. Setting out to become the world's greatest band is no easy feat, so they set out to steal what could be the answer to their prayers... a magical guitar pick housed in a rock-and-roll museum some 300 miles away.

Ehirerapp Waste of time
Cathardincu Surprisingly incoherent and boring
StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
kennyclftn This Film Helped Change My Life and Inspire My Love Of Rock Music. This Film Should Be The Beginning Of A Genre Of Amazing "Rock Musical" Films, But Because People Are To Picky And Uppity To Look Past The Stoner Comedy Of This Film. They Fail To See The Actually Skill Of Both The Musical and Cinematic Directors Of This Film. I Get Why Some Might Call It Stupid, But You Don't Need To Be High To Watch This. Because The Story Told In It Is Solid From Beginning To End. The Way Kyle and Jack Get Stoked On Rock Is The Same Way I'm Stoked On This Film, and The Music Behind It.
anetkam I have seen The Pick of Destiny a few times now, and I enjoy it just the same each time, maybe more each time because I'm starting to be able to sing the songs now too. It's very, very funny (took me a tiny while to make my peace with the rude language, but it wasn't that difficult). The music is great, I'm a huge Tenacious D fan. I'm a huge Jack Black fan - I think the guy could have a really good singing career if he chose to. But together JB and KG are simply perfect and irresistible. And Dave Grohl is a cherry on top of an already delicious cake! The story is funny and engaging. I cannot fault this production. Obviously it won't be everyone's cup of tea, but for those forever young at heart it's a must see and a must love!
Jzman6610 I don't know if i liked this movie because im only 15 but this is one of my FAVORITE MOVIES. First of all, Jack Black is one of my favorite actors because although he can be annoying at times, he is a hilarious and exceptional actor. I thought the plot of the movie was great because they were originally going to make the movie a true story about how Jack Black and Kyle Gass first met and how Tenacious D began. But instead they made the movie interesting and made a more goofy story line which i'm glad they did. I thought this was a good laugh and was pretty well directed considering the seriousness of the movie. This is one of my favorite stoner movies(aside from Harold and Kumar). Critics know nothing and just want everything to be professional. I don't know about everybody else but i just watch movies for fun. THIS MOVIE IS WORTHY OF A 10!
Ross Heighway Tenacious D are a good band, and there quite funny in that band.But in this film they are NOT funny.I didn't laugh once in this whole movie & it was just basically a huge let-down.Because i thought it would be a decent comedy because it was a film about Tenacious D and it obviously had them two in it.However...This film was poorly written, had scenes in it that didn't add any humour in to it just basically took up some time in the movie and made it even more of a waste of time.As well as this Tenacious D are great song writers however some of the "songs" in this were poor, an awful soundtrack for an awful film.Even if you like Tenacious D, save your time, do not watch this movie!
