Movie Review- Year One

Year One Poster

I remember when this movie was merely an announcement. I was freakin’ stoked! Michael Cera and Jack Black starring? Harold Ramis directing? Hell yeah! Well, the wait is over and I saw it aaaaand I was a little disappointed. The movie was incredibly hilarious and Michael Cera stole every scene he was in, but the plot was scattered and jokes fell flat more frequently than I would have liked.

There were potty jokes that were often more of a miss than a hit and I expect more from a Judd Apatow produced comedy. The distinct senses of humor from Jack Black, Michael Cera, and the other actors didn’t mix too well. There were some great jokes, but the cast didn’t have the comedic spark that was needed in order for this movie to succeed.

In a nutshell: Year One is a hilarious movie, but not necessarily a good one.

Total: 2/4 stars
