55- #DLMChallenge “Year One”

For #55 of the #DLMChallen ge #365moviesin365days on April 6th I watched: Year One.

My morbid curiosity was quenched thanks to the challenge. I mean what can I say about this? I had low expectations and thought it was worse. It’s hard when a film has so many great cameos and bit parts, yet still sucks–

–I’ve got it. Most of the time when these comedy films have myriad cameos, it must be a bad film, right? I guess there are exceptions to that rule, but it holds true most of the time.

For what it’s worth, I feel that Jack Black and Michael Cera have some on-screen chemistry. And some of those cameos and bit parts, whew! I found it annoying that David Cross’ character kept popping up, because he was annoying, but he was also quite amusing.
