Jim Carrey does wonders with a slight premise that finds his reserved, emotionally-distant character, Carl Allen, a banker who routinely turns down loan applications, accepting a challenge to open up to life by saying "yes" to everything. A man who constantly disappoints friends by weasling out of opportunities for bonding and happiness, Carl radically changes into a creature of complete spontaneity. By never saying no anymore, he gets into situations with unpredictable outcomes, such as driving a homeless stranger to a scary-looking park at night. But for the most part, whatever Carl says yes to becomes a road to worthwhile experiences, even receiving a promotion at work for approving hundreds of micro-loans against all policy. Zooey Deschanel, who often plays appealing kooks, is very good as Carl's girlfriend, a free spirit who takes to his positivity about everything--for awhile, anyway. Director Peyton Reed (Down with Love) makes the most out of the gimmicky comedy, as does Carrey, who does wonders with scenes that are often left open-ended just to see what the brilliant comic will do with them. --Tom Keogh

 Yes-Man March 1, 2010
M. Zarcone (Long Island, NY)
The DVD was in good shape but the case came in broken - no what was expected for a "like new" product.
 Yes to Yes Man February 28, 2010
BarbK (Thurmont, MD USA)
I am a Jim Carrey fan although many of his films are too over the top for me. However, Yes Man was great and I especially like the fact that the version I bought had the widescreen and the full screen versions on the same DVD and I didn't need all the extras that many DVD movies have. I prefer full screen movies and find them hard to find. This film reminded me of the Jim Carrey i enjoyed in Bruce Almighty and Liar Liar....a most enjoyable movie.
Nice Story With Some Good Humor! February 19, 2010
Khaled Altaher (Riyadh, NA Saudi Arabia)
Jim Carey got very depressed and anti social after his ex-wife divorced him. He lived his depressing life every day until one of his friends talked him into attending an inspirational seminar called Yes Man. In this seminar, Jim made a pact with himself that he would say yes to everything in his life, no matter how weird or dangerous the situation is. He started doing that, and his life changed very positively and got very interesting.
The morale behind this film is that we should conquer our inner fears and say yes to things we really want to do deep inside but are afraid of. If you want to ask someone to marry you but you're afraid of rejection, go for it, at least you will know how she feels about you. If you never ask her, youl will stay all your life wondering what she would have answered.
The humor in the movie is good. Its not Dumb and Dumber type of comedy that will throw you off your seat, but its descent.
Jim Carrey--hilarious and more nuanced February 19, 2010
MissPammy
If all you remember about Jim Carrey movies are the rubber-faced expressions and sight gags, you'll be as impressed as I was with this film. Here, Carrey adds to his usual repertoire of funny faces by delivering a performance that includes a range of emotions and an insightful characterization of a guy who is willing to admit that he has denied himself many of the things he really wants in life because he is always saying "no" to the risks inherent in personal relationships. After missing his best friend's engagement party, he has an epiphany and allows himself to be dragged to a "Yes man" seminar, where he learns to say yes to everything. This results in a series of madcap adventures and uproarious situations before Carrey begins to discover that the philosophy does need to be tempered with wisdom. Lots of fun to watch.
YES MAN IS A HIT. February 10, 2010
Maria E. Vazquez
WHILE THE CONCEPT MAY BE THE SAME AS LIAR LIAR, THE THING THAT GETS ME TO KEEP WATCHING THIS FLICK IS THE CAST OF THE MOVIE. THEY REALLY GO TOE TO TOE WITH CARREY. THE OTHER THING THAT I LIKED WAS THE SPECIAL FEATURES. YOU GET A BEHIND THE SCENES LOOK, A FEW MUSIC VIDEOS FEATURING ZOOEY DECHANEL AND A FEW INTERVIEWS. THE ONLY KNOCK I HAVE IS THE MOVIE DOESNT HAVE AN AUDIO COMMENTARY BY THE ACTORS OR THE DIRECTOR. I WISH THEY WOULD OF DONE ONE BECAUSE I WOULD HAVE LOVE TO HEAR THE BACKSTORY OF THIS MOVIE. I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT THIS MOVIE WAS BASED OFF OF TRUE EVENTS, SOME GUY ONE DAY DECIDED TO SAY YES TO EVERYTHING AND I PERSONALLY WOULD OF LIKED TO KNOW MORE ABOUT THAT. OVERALL THIS MOVIE IS WORTH BUYING IF YOUR A FAN OF JIM CARREY OR JUST WANT TO SIT BACK AND WATCH A FUN FILM.
