Nacho Libre – Eagle Eggs

“Nacho Libre” is the next movie you will watch with your friends and laugh your heads off! No doubt about that. In fact, what do you get if you put the producers of Napoleon Dynamite together again? A blast!

Ignacio, (Jack Black) has always lived in a Mexican monastery, where his parents have left him, and is now the official cook who feeds the orphans. Every single man has a dream, and so does Ignacio: he is a wrestler-to-be, wants to be respected, and bring money to his nest. Against every prognostication, he is able to wear his tight sweat pants and, not without a little entertaining misadventures, make it on the ring with the other wrestlers.

Just one tiny spoiler alert for you guys. In order to gain the strength and the power, Ignacio climbs up a cliff on the border of the sea and cracks open an eagle egg. What do you think he did next? Buy yourselves a couple of eggs, keep them raw and watch the hilarious Mexican version of Jack Black.
