'Year One'... The only reason I threw in the 1/2 is because I really like that Michael Cera boy. This one also stars Jack Black and supporting roles by a myriad of other amazing comedic actors like Paul Rudd! (one of my favorites).
The lead roles are Black and Cera. And yes, there have been times in the past where I have enjoyed Jack Black... but it seems lately that he's annoying me. I've not been seeing good acting, comedic or otherwise. Is he just trying to get rich to retire or what? Please do something with a real story, here and there at least!
The premise of 'Year One' is that two cavemen venture out into early Biblical times and encounter some of those Old Testament perils. Granted, there are some laughs, but really only chuckles. This movie did not produce even one good belly laugh for me, at least. And I love a good stupid movie!
As for the kids, I'd just skip it. The attempts at sophomoric humor are indeed sophomoric and of course, sometimes vulgar.
If you're a fan, I'm sure you'll have to see for yourself!
