School of Rock is a great movie for any age, whether you want to laugh your pants off, or just want to see a great comedy movie this one is for you.
School of Rock is about Dewey Finn, the lead guitar player in the band No Vacancy. Dewey is kicked out of the band by his band mates and is forced to find a new job to help pay his friend's rent. One day while Dewey is trying to sell his 1964 Gibson SG, he gets a call from a private middle school asking for Mike Schneably, his roomate. They are asking if Mike can come and substitute for one of the teachers who has fallen and broken her hip. While Dewey is taking the call, he thinks of a great plan. He makes himself sound like Mike so that he can get the job "temping", after he hears that the job pays over $600 a week. Dewey gets the job and goes in to "temp" the next day. While he is there he meets the principal played by Joan Cusack. He goes in and meets his new class.
