School of Rock was a feelgood smash hit, featuring a cast of actually-talented-in-real-life young musicians, and a tour de force from leading man Jack Black, clearly revelling in a role that was practically written for him.

It took $131m at the box office and also achieved the rare feat of featuring rock gods Led Zeppelin on the soundtrack; the band notoriously don't allow their music to be used for commercial purposes, but made an exception after a video featuring Jack Black and a crowd begging them for permission was sent directly to them.
