    Nacho Libre

    Just saw it last night with Hangman. I thought it was funny and will probably be funnier each time that I watch it. However, the one thing that it didn't have that Napoleon Dynamite DID have, is a plethora of developed characters. For the most part, it was just Jack Black (Nacho) and his sidekick, Esqueleto. There were a lot of funny and funny-looking characters, but we didn't get to see them for long.

    Don't get me wrong, it's a fun movie. If you're a Jack Black fan and/or a Jared Hess fan, you'll enjoy it.

    Your thoughts?

    Would it be okay for Athos Jr. (age 7) to see?

    He knows who JB is (hosting the Nick Kid's Choice awards, udder things).
    Would like to take him with me.



    btw- I also heard Kyle quit the band.

    I think it would be ok for your 7-year-old. There's only only one word that is off-color. Jack Black's character describes someone as a douche. My guess is that was an adlib.

    Actually, that's no longer true. They got back together. Couldn't split up Tango and Cash.

    Pretty lame. I only chuckled once through the whole thing. I hated his sidekick.

    From the previews, it looks like the producer should have stopped after Napoleon Dynamite.
