Top Critics Reviews

This is a significant notch below the great Monty Python films that tackled religion with intelligence and wit.

[Year One has] some very funny moments but not enough of them.

For all its unevenness, the film is blessed by its lead actors.

'Year One' wants to be seen as a freeform, knockabout trawl through Biblical history, perfect for an undemanding Saturday night. There are only two problems: it's kind of dull and just isn't funny.

Creatively it's a giant step backwards, with Jack Black and Michael Cera playing to the kids as inept hunter-gatherers who stumble across various Old Testament characters.
