Year One (2009) is a prehistoric comedy adventure that follows two inept hunter-gatherers, Zed (Jack Black) and Oh (Michael Cera), after they're exiled from their primitive tribe. Their misadventures lead them through a bizarre version of ancient history where they cross paths with famous Biblical characters including Cain and Abel, Abraham, and Isaac, before finding themselves in the notoriously sinful city of Sodom.

Directed by Harold Ramis (Ghostbusters), the film blends slapstick humor with historical parody as our hapless heroes navigate this strange new world. Jack Black delivers his signature boisterous performance as the overconfident Zed, while Michael Cera provides perfect deadpan contrast as the more cautious Oh. The supporting cast features memorable appearances from Hank Azaria, Oliver Platt, and David Cross.

While the film received mixed reviews from critics, it offers lighthearted entertainment for viewers seeking an unconventional comedy that playfully reimagines ancient tales. The chemistry between Black and Cera drives the narrative forward through various absurd situations, from the Garden of Eden to the chaotic streets of Sodom. If you enjoy historical spoofs with modern sensibilities and appreciate the comedic pairing of these two distinct performers, Year One provides 97 minutes of escapist fun that doesn't take itself too seriously.
