Nacho Libre
Nacho Libre: {MAY contain unavoidable minor spoilers} Ignacio (Jack Black) lives as a monk, works and lives in this small poor town in Mexico. He cooks for the orphans and is sad as he hears them talk of the bad food and always feeling hungry.

Amazing
Why is this mostly in the 'I'd rather eat my own feet!' vote??!

AWESOME!
Massive fan of Black, White and Hess. Even if for some reason there is a fault in script or style (which i feel is unlikely), Jack Blacks all-round mentalness can carry pretty much anything.. well except envy..that sucked. ... Read More

Enough Black!
Enough of this loser trying to be overly funny, it's just bland and crass and he couldn't even put the serious face on Denham in 'King Kong', so I see nothing exciting about more lame comedy from Black. (Wishes for the times of S.Martin, E.Murphy, B.Murray and T.Hanks true comedy to come back 15 years on!) *sobs* ... Read More
