GamerTab That was an excellent one.
SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped
Nessieldwi Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.
Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
Mynameisroman Wow. After only 7 minutes in the movie you know why the low ratings. its just awful. i usually like the main cast but here they feel totally wrong from the beginning. this humour might works when you are a child but not when you are an adult. sadly the movie continues to be bad. there are some nice bits and pieces here and there but mostly not worth your time.
RasAlBane This movie offers a cozy relaxation time with a few laughs and a good cast and also a good director.So we have two buddy's who are different but work well of each other and leave their village 2 discover new things and it just has a nice sense of adventure and good feel and the movie just offers this good and cozy look. Its definitely not a great film but its something that you might want 2 see again when your in the right mood.These guys meet a lot of weird people and get into lot of weird circumstances and its just genuinely funny sometimes.Definitely worth a check and not bad in a sense that its not enjoyable cause it most certainly could be worth your time.
Michael Radny Though there are some laughs, most of the gags are taken directly out of other movies making this film mostly a bunch of primitives running around like mindless apes. Most of the film relies on dumb sex jokes and the overplayed fart and poo jokes which infants may find mildly arousing. Jack Black managed to weave himself into yet another bad film which just fails to bring comedy to this branded comedy film. Bland, boring and bleak, this film delivers a few laughs, but nothing remotely original. It's hard to watch after a while and the humour is only that of potty talk. The casting at first glance seems good, but it does not have the quality to redeem this film from the pits of hell.
cordery23 Comedies, with the exception of Rom-Com's seem to get the short end of the ratings stick, but I ask what's harder these days: to jam in a bunch of special effects on screen, or make an audience laugh, and I'd say it's the latter. Year One has many laugh out loud moments and unlike many comedies they aren't all exhausted in the first 15 minutes. The humour is silly and no, don't look for sophistication, but when I think of all the poorly written SNL based films and other comedies that border on the absurd, Year One doesn't deserve the poor ratings it has. Watch it again, or for the first time whatever the case may be and be surprised at the jokes. I don't like rating movies on one general scale so I will say it's a 9/10 in the pure comedy genre - in that it makes me laugh to this day.
