Grab our NEW Daredevil Hallway Hazard & Fisky Business Tees: https://www.rejectnationshop.com/ Join Greg Alba and Coy Jandreau as they rock out to the 2003 cult classic, School of Rock—a high-energy musical comedy directed by Richard Linklater (Dazed and Confused, Boyhood, Before Sunrise) and written by Mike White (The White Lotus, Orange County, Despicable Me 4). In this feel-good film, Jack Black stars as Dewey Finn, a down-on-his-luck rock guitarist who poses as a substitute teacher and transforms his classroom into an impromptu rock band. His irreverent charm and wild antics spark an unforgettable journey of self-discovery and rebellion that transcends the walls of a traditional school. Jack Black (celebrated for his roles in Nacho Libre, Kung Fu Panda, Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, & More) delivers an iconic performance as Dewey Finn, whose passion for rock 'n roll ignites the hidden talents of his students. Joan Cusack (known for her work in Working Girl, In & Out, and Gross Pointe Blank) shines as the determined Principal Mullins, providing a humorous yet grounded counterbalance to Dewey’s antics. The film is packed with memorable moments—from the chaotic band rehearsals and hilarious classroom hijinks to the electrifying final concert that has inspired generations of music lovers. Greg & Coy break down every high-energy scene and dissect the film’s timeless blend of humor, heart, and rock ‘n roll spirit along with all the film's tastiest jams which include School of Rock, In the End of Time, Math is a Wonderful Thing, Your Head, Your Mind, Your Brain..., I Pledge Allegiance to the Band, Led Zeppelin's Immigrant Song, It's a Long Way to the Top (If You Wanna Rock 'n' Roll) & beyond!!. Whether you’re a lifelong fan or experiencing this classic for the first time, this reaction and review is your ultimate guide to every riff, laugh, and rebellious moment! #SchoolOfRock #JackBlack #RichardLinklater #MusicalComedy #RockComedy #MovieReaction #ReactionReview #GregAlba #CoyJandreau Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny Movie Reaction: https://youtu.be/NUOS2ej3FE0 The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent Reaction: https://youtu.be/4mHWb2S8J9k Daredevil: Born Again Episode 7 Reaction: https://youtu.be/MezGkX-_4_s AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY - Reacting to the Cast Announcements: https://youtu.be/EPfFY-GsQoU Eurotrip Movie Reaction: https://youtu.be/tUgYxaHaxyM 0:00 Checking In! 4:06 School of Rock Reaction 32:56 PRIZE PICKS 36:50 School of Rock Movie Reaction 1:16:13 School of Rock Review Follow Coy Jandreau: Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@CoyJandreau Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@coyjandreau?lang=en Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coyjandreau/?hl=en Twitter: https://twitter.com/CoyJandreau Intense Suspense by Audionautix is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Follow TheReelRejects On The Socials: IG: https://www.instagram.com/reelrejects/ TT: https://www.tiktok.com/@thereelrejects?lang=en TWITTER: https://twitter.com/thereelrejects FB: https://www.facebook.com/TheReelRejects/ Music Used In Ad: Hat the Jazz by Twin Musicom is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Happy Alley by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ POWERED BY @GFUEL Visit https://gfuel.ly/3wD5Ygo and use code REJECTNATION for 20% off select tubs!!

What a bunch of talented kids. Sadly Kevin Clark, who played Freddy, has died in a road collision at the age of 32 in 2021. On a brighter note: Caitlin Hale and Angelo Massagli, who played Marta and Frankie, got married in 2025! The reunion videos of the band (there are two very good ones) are worth checking out. Rivkah Reyes (Katie) finally gets to play the solo that never happened in the movie.

They actually had to train Miranda Cosgrove to sing badly, which is hilarious

So at this point in his life Jack had always wanted kids but was super insecure and what have you. The parents of the child actors even said they were surprised by how good he was with the kids after thinking he would be a bad influence. When Jack did Kung Fu Panda he met Angelina Jolie who was pregnant at the time and they became friends. He shared with her he had always wanted kids and had a crush on this girl since they were in school but never thought he was good enough. Angelina basically gave him a pep talk and the courage to ask this person out who would eventually become his wife and mother of his kids. Jack has since said this is the movie he’s the most proud of as it kinda marked a significant shift in his personal life and public perception. Now he mostly does family movies he thinks his kids will enjoy. He’s a good dude.

The way Joan Cusack goes from being the villain to like super vulnerable and sympathetic in one scene is really well done. Like you understand immediately why she is the way she is.

Ned/Mike White was Jack Black's neighbor, and wrote this with him in mind. So when you say it was like it was made for him, it literally was.

Joan Cusack saying “I’ve just been informed that all your children are missing” is one of the greatest line reads in movie history

I love how he dosen't tell Tomika that she's not fat, but simply acknowledge that she has an issue. And then he builds her confidence, by mentioning Aretha Franklin and how apearence means nothing against talent
