Pelicula Review - Jack Black -El Mexicano??!!
In Jack Black's new movie "Nacho Libre" he plays a (half) Latino monk who discovers that his true passion is wrestling. That's all I know because I could really buy into the idea that he was Latino. Although Jack Black is not Latino that is some notable Latino talent in this film that we should keep our eye on..
