Jerry (Jack Black) plans to sabotage a power plant go awry. Now magnetized, he accidentally erases every tape at the video store where his friend Mike (Mos Def) works. But their most loyal customer (an elderly woman whose mind is starting to slip ) still expects to see her favorite movies, so Jerry and Mike set out on the near-impossible task of re-creating every movie in the store.
