Profile of Year One

Year One can be described as offbeat, humorous, and witty. The plot revolves around a situation where nothing goes right, misfits, and partners. Its comic aspect comes from farce. Year One's main genres are comedy, adventure, and parody. In terms of style, it is epic. In approach, it is not serious. Year One takes place in prehistorical times. It is well suited for teens. Note that it involves sexual content and profanity.

Summary of Year One

After Neanderthal hunter Zed (Jack Black) is exiled for eating forbidden fruit, he and his sardonic buddy Oh (Michael Cera) leave their village and begin an epic journey through history. The pals encounter biblical characters such as Cain (David Cross) and Abel, Abraham (Hank Azaria), and others, and wind up in Sodom. Along the way, Zed debunks commonly held beliefs and replaces them with his own delusions of grandeur, though luckily Zed is there to bring him back to Earth.

A good dumb comedy. I'm still amused by Micheal Cera's stuttering and Jack Black makes me laugh, what can I say? I think the reviews for this have been way too harsh. Many of the jokes fall flat, sure, and it's kind of a mess, but I laughed enough... Read and rate it

"Year One" is stuffed full of notable comedians, people who have been and will be hilarious. Here it's a different story as everything falls flat under directionless bits that go on too long and gross-out gags that nobody over twelve should find... Read and rate it
