Not to be corny, but you should say YES to this film. — 3 weeks ago

WORTH CONSUMING!

I almost wound up seeing this in theaters back in January of this year, but instead I went with Slumdog Millionaire. After finally getting around to seeing Yes Man I … well, I kind of regret not seeing it back then (although Slumdog was good!).

A seriously underrated comedy (based on critic reviews), Yes Man manages to be hilarious and awkward as well as warm-hearted and romantic. Jim Carrey is the perfect actor for this role, and he really is the driving force of the movie. Sure, the story is a bit simple and one-dimensional, but I actually didn’t think the movie as a whole would be as good as it actually was. Needless to say, it was surprising.

While many of the supporting characters aren’t developed well, it doesn’t detract from the overall feel of the movie; it’s more about Carrey and Zooey Deschanel – though I did find myself thinking about that age gap a lot since he’s 47 and she’s 29, in real life. As a whole, the movie works fairly well.

I wouldn’t say Yes Man tops some of Carrey’s other films like Bruce Almighty, but it definitely deserves a lot more credit than critics have given it so far. Check it out!

WORTH CONSUMING!

It was defintely worth seeing. He’s funny in everything he does. It will make you think about taking more risks. I will watch it again.

A review of this — 29 weeks ago

WORTH CONSUMING!

The premise of this movie is genius. Jim Carey plays a bummed out “no” man who changes his life with the power of “yes.” Sure, there’s a lesson to be learned about when “yes” is a bad idea, but, overall, the message is still about being positive and getting out of your shell. There are plenty of laughs and it stands on its own as a comedy, but this movie has had a profound effect on how I approach life.
