Memorable quote: Precious Father, why have you given me this desire to wrestle and then made me such a stinky warrior?
Jack Black is an orphan, who himself becomes a priest and also a cook. He cooks at the monastery, but has very little money to create truly delicious meals for the priests and children. He decides to become a wrestler so that he can both create truly delicious meals for the children and impress the new Sister, for whom he has a crush on.
He begins to make money with the aid of a homeless man that he finds. They are a tag team match and soon he is making delicious meals for the monastery. However, he must keep his wrestling a secret or the monastery will shame him. Leading his double life, he moves through the ranks and finally is able to fight the most powerful wrestler in Mexico.
There are some truly hilarious parts in this movie. There are some parts of this movie that drag, drag, drag. There are parts that try to be funny and it simply does not work. The plot meanders. I loved Napoleon Dynamite and it meandered and I LOVED it. This meanders and all I could think was, “Make a point already.” ND made a point. You understood it on a gut level. You loved the characters. Nacho Libre fails to do this and I was, unfortunately, disappointed. Especially, since I truly wanted to love this movie.
Sadly: C- *wait for the DVD*
