Nacho Libre is another movie starring Jack Black, directed Jared Hess. The movies Jack Black starred in seemed to have this loser-turn-hero style and Nacho Libre doesn’t change any of that.
As usual, we’ll let the pictures do the story-telling.
Nacho is raised in a Mexican monastery orphanage and he is quite fat.
Loving God and the children, Nacho works in the orphanage to cook food for the kids.
He likes wrestling and decided to give it a go at Lucha Libre - a wrestling tourament - to earn some money.
Sister Encarnacion looks pretty here. Nacho seems interested.
Well, unfortunately not all his co-workers think highly of wrestling as it is considered sinful. Would Nacho be able to convinced them and make the kids at the orphanage happy again? Likely.
Anyway, I like Nacho Libre, it’s fun to watch, I haven’t gotten sick of that loser-to-hero formula. The plot is straight forward, predictable and at many times nonsensical. Sister Encarnacion (played by Ana de la Reguera) is perhaps the most beautiful nun that you’d ever see. Nacho Libre deserves 3.5 upon 5 for all of the above.

This in my opinion was the worst film Jack Black has done. Not a patch on School of Rock.
