Critics Consensus

Year One is a poorly executed, slapdash comedy in which the talent both in front of and behind the camera never seem to be on the same page.

Deborah Ross

The Spectator

All in all, this is a sloppy, unoriginal, brain-dead mess that can't even be bothered to get itself out of trouble.

Deep Focus Review

A dreary, groan-inducing comedy that fails to be funny or entertaining under even the most lenient terms.

Rated: 1.5/4

Gone With The Twins

It may go slightly beyond the blueprints for a formulaic parody movie, but it has all the same symptoms.

Rated: 5/10

Year One relies almost solely upon bawdy, sophomoric humor.

It was fun, it's the typical after-dinner movie but with funny moments. The mix of religion, some stories and humor is good.

Filme ruim, o roteiro é fraco, o elenco é bom, só que ninguém faz o filme ficar bom, as cenas são fracas e super sem graças e nenhuma cena relevante para Filme ser bom, e as protagonistas são muitos fracos e deixam o filme ruim, com isso, eu não recomendo esse filme.

A great classic comedy with a clever witty story , good writing and constant laughs. You would have to be quite dim witted to not get quite how dim witted this film is suppose to be. People need to get a grip !

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Once again, I am the odd man out. I loved this comedy, whereas most of you hated it. The story follows two tribal outcasts as they leave the forest and explore the world after Jesus's birth. It's good satire and parody. I wish I'd written it. (Please, don't throw tomatoes at me.)
