Funny man Jack Black plays a cook at a monestary named Nacho, who sets out on a plan to make money to get better ingredients for the meals he makes for the orphans. Nacho himself was an orphan in the same monestary/orphanage but has always felt out of place. He makes friends with a rail thin thief who he convinces to become his wrestling partner in hopes of making it big and getting more money for the poor orphans and also to impress the young new nun at the monestary named Encarnacion. Nacho names the thief Esqueleto which means The Skeleton in spanish. Nacho and Esqueleto embark on a hilarious journey to train themselves to become the top wrestlers in Lucha Libre and to give themselves and the orphans a better life. I thought this movie was very funny. Jack Black did a good job with his portrayal of a spanish accent. Because I'm Hispanic, I also caught on to some of the humor that maybe someone who's not spanish speaking or familiar with humble Mexican people would have caught on to. It's a good comedy.
