| Montreal Film JournalKevin N. LaforestIt's Spinal Tap and Wayne's World rolled into one burrito supreme, with extra rocket sauce! |
| Atlanta Journal-ConstitutionDaniel Gray Longino... the funniest movie musical since South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut ... |
| South Florida Sun-SentinelPhoebe FlowersIt's not that a lot of the content isn't really, really funny -- but it isn't exactly fresh, either. |
| MovieCrypt.comKevin A. RansonIf you have to ask what kind of push-ups members of the band Tenacious D require, this isn't the movie for you... |
| One Guy's OpinionFrank SwietekMakes Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure look like a model of cerebral wit...there's a difference between genuine satire and Three Stooges-style stupidity. |
| Christian Science MonitorPeter RainerBlack and Kyle Gass started their acoustic/heavy metal rock music comedy act back in the late 1980s. Gold albums and HBO shorts followed, now this. Still, any movie featuring Jack Black with an appearance by Sasquatch is not a total loss, and, for those who care, we learn the origin of the group's name. |
| ColeSmithey.comCole Smithey"Tenacious D" is a movie for fans of the hilarious spoof-rocking duo. You know who you are. |
| VarietyBrian LowryNot surprisingly, the pic struggles at times to flesh out even its relatively brief 90-odd-minute duration, but it delivers some genuine if generally low-brow laughs along the way. |
| New York Daily NewsElizabeth WeitzmanProudly, and often hilariously, juvenile, "Destiny" is packed with typically grandiose Tenacious D anthems - the sort that thrill 15-year-old boys listening alone in their bedrooms. |
| OregonianShawn LevyIn a world in which "Borat" is a global brand, there's certainly a place for Tenacious D -- who, after all, are merely the greatest band in the world: Just ask 'em. |
