'Year One' web reviews

Jack Black and Michael Cera play two cavemen who go on a big adventure in Harold Ramis' comedy Year One

Jack Black and Michael Cera play two cavemen who go on a big adventure in Harold Ramis' comedy "Year One," and here is what the Web's critics have to say (read my review here):

Joblo's Jenna Bush: "The film has very little narrative, and what there is seems to be dumped half way through."

Cinematical's Jeffrey M. Anderson: "Black is a good reason why most of this works."

CinemaBlend's Josh Tyler: "'Year One' has no point, no purpose really other than stick Jack Black and Michael Cera in loincloths so they can wander around in front of the camera."

Latino Review's Ron Henriques: "I absolutely can not recommend this film, but I felt a little sad because it had some potential."

• Brad Brevet at RopeOfSilicon: "Ramis racked up the talent to give this story a run, but it never got out of the starting gate."

• Matt Goldberg at Collider: "Without any memorable humor, story, or characters, 'Year One' is a pointless endeavor and offers us nothing we haven’t seen or heard somewhere else before."
