At one time, Year One director Harold Ramis could do no wrong. For those not familiar with the name, he is the comedic genius who brought us the likes of
National Lampoon’s Vacation,
Caddyshack,
Ghostbusters, and
Groundhog Day. However, all of the aforementioned films shared a cohesive vision of satirical humor grounded in relatable situations;
Year One does not. The main characters are two hunter/ gatherers named Zed and Oh (played by Jack Black and Michael Cera, respectively) who are chased out of their village after consuming a forbidden fruit.
