Plot summary

Ignacio, a disrespected cook at a Mexican monastery, can barely afford to feed the orphans who live there. Inspired by a local wrestling hero, he decides to moonlight as the not-so-famous Luchador "Nacho Libre" to earn money for the monastery -- not to mention the admiration of beautiful nun Sister Encarnación.

Underrated Gem

This is a great movie filled with plenty of fun laughs and a genuinely fulfilling underdog story. Jack Black shines with a classic performance and the set and tone perfectly encapsulates the entire film. This knows the story they are telling and approach it with tenderness and care for all the characters involved. Fans of Napoleon Dynamite will love this film as it feels almost like a spiritual successor. Well rounded cast of fun and delightful supporting characters which paints this small community and makes you truly root for Nacho's story. Cannot say enough great things about this movie. If you haven't checked this one out it's filled with heart and joy. Plenty of jokes in there for the adults to quote and slap stick moments sure to delight the kiddos watching. So underrated and definitely worth a watch.

Nachooooooooo

Classic Jack Black and a simple, fun, feel-good film. Light-hearted and utterly ridiculous, Black performs as his silly self (with a Mexican accent) and whilst the film doesn't utilise jokes, it's goofiness directs the narrative. Black's accent can go wayward at times - especially when he is singing and loses all character - but the story is fun and the choreography is pretty impressive at times.
