School of Rock was very funny and cute
We've seen it a couple of times

I loved Nacho Libre the most
I laughed out loud...then i showed it to a bunch of friends on a beer and pizza night and they hated it
People are weird:/

I thought Nacho Libre was alright, a 6/10 for me. I would likely rank it #19 of his filmography.

Sounds about right...i would rate it a bit higher but i dig the silly stuff and this one checked off all of the boxes
You really know your movies Allaby...
Well done!

Thanks Shogun.

School of Rock always comes out on top for me. It always manages to be rewatchable no matter how many times I've seen it.

I guess I haven't seen very many of his film, but I enjoyed him in School of Rock.

No love for High Fidelity?

[–] ODB82 (2055) 5 years ago

Saving Silverman, Tropic Thunder and Envy. Other then those, I’m not a fan.

School of Rock - By far his best
Kung Fu Panda series - These were all pretty good

I found these all entertaining (in no particular order):
Shallow Hal
The Jackal
Jumanji: Jungle
Orange County
High Fidelity
Shark Tale
Ice Age

The rest were either OK or in some cases (Gulliver's Travels) terrible imo.
