Two lazy, prehistoric hunter-gatherers are kicked out of their village and set off on an epic adventure. This has to be the worst comedy of 2009, not funny at all just a waste of time.

Funny parts in this film were few and far between. I can't figure out what the point is. What humor was in this movie could have been salvaged and redirected into a much more worthwhile film. I adore Michael Cera, but not even he could save this movie from being a bomb. Not worth anyone's time, unless you're highly enebriated. If films could be annulled, this would be a good one to kick to the curb.

A horrible film - lifeless and going through the motions. For all the hilarious actors packed into cameo and supporting roles, you'd think the movie would manage at least one laugh.

Is there a place for Biblical comedy in this day and age? Perhaps, but Year One can only eek out a few laughs between all the talent it has. For a film that struggles so mightily, I expected more.

This movie was so highly anticipated and yet I can't help but feel that Harold Ramis and the crackpot writers cheated me. I went in hoping for a smart, sophisticated comedy that the trailers made the film out to be, yet all I got was an overtly-sexual, highly blasphemous film about literally nothing in particular. There was no overall theme and even less story arc. The only hysterical thing about this movie was David Cross as Cain. A disappointment.

Here is the problem. There is a scene in the movie, about 5 minutes long. In it, you have Jack Black, Micheal Cera, David Cross, and Paul Rudd. Four very very funny men. Very Funny. But yet the scene itself isn't funny at all. And that is a problem. One i find incredibly baffling and which immediately highlighted the fact that the script and its director are purely at fault here. Its just not funny, and everyone tries there best but the final edit is messy with no comedic flow, it just runs from dire sketch to dire sketch. I still love these guys but Harold Ramis, who directed one of my all time favourite movies (Groundhog Day) has lost a lot of respect, from me anyways.
