Plot:
Down and out rock star Dewey Finn (Black) gets
fired from his band, and he faces a mountain of debts and
depression. He takes a job as a 4th grade substitute teacher at
an uptight private school where his attitude and hijinx have a
powerful effect on his students. He also meets Yuki, a 9-year-old
guitar prodigy, who could help Dewey win a "battle of the
bands" competition, which would solve his financial problems
and put him back in the spotlight.
Rating 
5½ out of 10
Rated
for some rude humor and drug
references
Notes:
The movie could have been a LOT better. Mostly it was just really
corny.
Bottom Line: RENT
