Review

Today we start a new tab - Review.

Jess and I review movies, books, magazines, music, technology, software, merchandise, whatever really! So if you need a review on something - post it as a comment and we will try to get you a review - or even post your own reviews as comments!
It is good to have reviews before purchasing, downloading, reading, watching etc. - it will save you time and money!

Let's throw up a review of the new Jack Black movie, "Year One."

MOVIE TRAILER, "Year One."

"Year One," what a ridiculous movie. First of all, wow, well there was a lot of random inappropriate language - meaning you wouldn't want to watch it with your mother, really weird sexual comments...Secondly, they try to joke a lot of Biblical allusions & that time period in general, which could get aggravating after a while. I must admit it was hilarious most of the time - but overall wasn't what I was expecting. Truthfully, before I watched it, I had no idea what the movie was about.


Basically, Jack Black & that other famous actor dude leave their tribe to find their meaning in life. They end up stumbling upon all the famous stories of the beginning of the Old Testament, i.e. Cane & Abel, Abraham & Isaac, etc.

They then run into three people from their tribe & try to save them from slavery - but end up in slavery themselves. Next, they end up as soldiers for the city of Sodom (another allusion to the Bible) and find themselves in so many more ridiculous circumstances. I won't ruin the end for you if you watch it but yeah...

I personally give it half a thumb out of two thumbs up. The message Jack Black tries to present is that - everyone has a purpose in life & you can achieve it whether people are with you or not - take the harsh comments & all the attacks - even if you don't look like you can achieve your dreams/goals - push onward & things will fall into place - never give up even when you find yourself in weird, unusual circumstances - another door will open. This message was cool. The end.
