    COMPULSIVE 'NO' SAYER, CARL ALLEN, DECIDES TO SAY 'YES' TO EVERYTHING TO SEE THE EFFECTS AFTER MAKING A CONVENANT WITH A MOTIVATIONAL SPEAKER.

    Description of Yes Man (Single-Disc Edition):
    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 (Single-Disc Edition) Reviews:
    Say no, say no! 1 Star Review
    2009-10-27 - I was forced to watch "Yes Man" on a bus traveling from Washington, DC to New York City. There was no way to avoid it (the sound was up full blast, the screen right in my face), although I wish there had been. I guess the bus driver could have chosen a worse movie than this jerry-built contraption for Jim Carrey, but not by much. The story involves a depressed, negative man (Carrey) who is forced by a self-help guru (Terence Stamp) to agree to everything everyone asks him to do. If "Yes Man" were merely a typical Hollywood "comedy" that mistook frenzy for laughs, I could have borne it. But "Yes Man" crosses over far too often into the realms of the offensive. The "jokes" include one of the most distasteful sex scenes in cinematic history (you'll know it when you see it) and a scene between Carrey and a German shepherd that conjures images of that perennial laff riot, Abu Ghraib. Carrey flounders in the awful script, as do other talented actors such as Stamp, Zooey Deschanel, Bradley Cooper and Fionnula Flanagan. I would advise even die-hard Carrey fans to skip this one.

    Why not? 3 Star Review
    2009-10-18 - A quick fluff movie that's fun for the first half and has a concept that is fun to think about applying to your own life (to some degree at least - ladies with dentures?). Well, it's Hollywood fast food and degrades to a 'happy' formulaic ending. "Liar Liar" followed a similar formula though with much better results. I'd rent before buying. I can't see anyone needing to see this twice but it won't bog you down or anything and it does conjure up possibilities. I can think of worse 3 star movies.

    A good time and just a fun film to watch. 4 Star Review
    2009-10-14 - This is just a fun film to watch. Hilarious story, light-hearted and funny, with great performances by all the actors.

    Liking the New Jim Carrey 4 Star Review
    2009-10-04 - I'm liking the new Jim Carrey. More mature but still spontaneous and a little wacky. Lots of funny parts and generally a good family movie (just a couple parts that are questionable but the young ones probably won't notice and the teenagers probably will like oh-come-on-mom-and-dad). A general feel-good movie.

    Mindless Fun 4 Star Review
    2009-09-26 - It lacks emotional depth and has a very basic storyline, but it is good for a lot of laughs, and the liar liar-type premise lets Jim Carrey be himself and muster up a decent amount of laughs. Plus, the whole lesson isn't a bad one, either, even though it's corny and predictable.
