Year One
A dirty-humoured comedy starring Jack Black and some guy who is probably from Wayne's World who find themselves in the Bible stories after wandering away from their village and discovering that there is a whole new world outside of their isolated caveman village place thing.
The plot isn't particularly historically accurate, but the settings are believable and it's nice to see how they tied in everything. I found it interesting that the existence of God is a debate raised, and it's sort of implied within the film that God doesn't exist and religion is for crazy people. Also, all Jews want to cut off your foreskin. The film seems to end rather early and you don't have much of a sense of closure.
Fairly unmemorable. The jokes are cringe-worthy and not particularly funny. I didn't expect much, however.
5/10
Would watch again? No.
