Year One (2009)
1/10
Hard to believe Harold Ramis directed this.
22 June 2009
From the same guy that directed such comedy classics Caddyshack(1980), National Lampoons Vacation(1983), and Groundhog Day(1993). Not to mention he co starred and co wrote the two Ghostbusters(1984-1989). Hard to believe that Harold Ramis would resort to the level of unfunny. He used to know what funny is. Has he forgotten, I think not. Year One for Harold Ramis is just an unfortunate misfire.

This movie was going from bad to worse to the point where I just left before it ended. I really wanted to like this movie, but nothing was jumping off the screen, I heard very little laughs in the theater, none of the characters where the least bit interesting. Jack Black and Michael Cera are alright, but both of them can't seem to grab much appeal to make this movie entertaining. Michael Cera is always an entertaining presence, but after seeing this film, I doubt his career will go very far as it's gonna go. Same goes on the boat for Jack Black. David Cross(Mr. Show) is so amazingly unfunny in his co starring role. So was Christopher Mintz-Plasse in his role, I think after this film he should be called Mc-Douschbag

If you're looking for a better and funnier film, then go see The Hangover instead.
