Year One (2009)
Many years ago I’d waited for hours till the Serbian Television broadcast History of the World Part I, one of those hilarious Mel Brooks creations. Yes, it was very funny and totally worth staying up till 2 in the morning to actually see it.
Let’s say I had a strong sensation of a “deja vu”, when seeing this movie, Year One.
Jack Black and Michael Cera or, as they appear in the movie, Zed and Oh, are two not very bright primitive people who get banished from thei village after Zed bites the forbidden fruit. Yes, it sounds familiar, right? Right. We’ll meet a lot of other “famous” people for anyone who’s bothered read the Bible and find out about the events back then. We witness the murder of Abel, see Sodoma and Gomora, find out about the first circumcision.
Even if the comedy doesn’t make you laugh as others used to (I do believe people seem to have lost their humor, or maybe I’m the one who’s getting old, who knows), it does have it’s charm. There were scenes that were very funny, especially if you knew what to expect.
So, even if this won’t ever be in my top 5 comedy list, I do believe it’s worth a shot. Please let me know how if you liked it 
Would you like to talk about it?
