    Entertaining doc about 2 guys who expose big companies for all of their wrongdoings by using todays overbearing media outlets. Andy and Mike pull off great hoaxes by posing as representatives of these corporations and telling lies in order to bring attention to problems swept und...( read more)er the carpet. What I found interesting was every time they pull a hoax the media tries to paint the Yes Men in a bad light and insensitive to the victims, but the victims like the exposure and are on their side every time. It's a little drawn out at times,but fun to watch. Andy and Mike have great sense of humors and really seem like they want to help.

    A better movie than the 2004 prequel, The Yes Men fix the world is a much better made movie, as a whole and discusses issues that I personally could relate to. Being a Indian, I easily related to the part of the the Bhopal Gas Tragedy, and I actually understand the feelings portr...( read more)ayed by the people of the area against Dow. Quite a few popular issues/ events showcased, including the hoax Times of New York newspaper controversy, and overall a fun watch. I couldn't help comparing it to the Michael Moore docu Fahrenheit 9/11, which had a similar funny/satirical take on serious issues, and while F 9/11 is a must watch movie, Yes Men 2 is a few rungs below it!!

    Do watch this movie!! It'll really get you thinking!!

    You know, i do not like a lot of what is happening in the world and i think a lot about ways to change something... (and please don't come with voting...)

    well, this people have
    in a way it's what i have thought about for so long - in order to make people listen to you you have ...( read more)to be funny, entertain them ... most people are not idealists and do not care too much what is going on arround them
    but what makes the yes men unique is their aproach ... they actually mask as company executives and show how absurde their doings are

    i greatly admire what the yes men are doing

    you should watch this one for sure - a great mix of entertainment and idealism

Amy Biancolli, Houston Chronicle

Beyond question, the results are overstated, outrageous and wildly, scatologically juvenile. But they're also a hoot to watch. full review

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

The film is entertaining in its own right, and thought-provoking. Why don't more people quickly see through their hoaxes? full review

David Edelstein, New York Magazine

This movie is glorious testimony to the moral power of satire. full review

August 7, 2009
Nigel Andrews, The Financial Times

The film, though brave, gonzo and often funny, raises the bar on the debate provoked by Michael Moore and Sacha Baron Cohen. How cruel does satire have to be - to innocent and guilty alike - to accomp... full review
