June 28, 2009Was just enough unlike the Zohan, semi-pro cookie cutter desperate grasps that I could enjoy and avoid dwelling about why Carl did cookies at the end of the movie. It's given me the courage to ask Zooey to make out all night.

May 23, 2009Started rather awfully, but then stopped short of being a complete disaster with Carrey showing shades of his former self. Not a must-see.

May 21, 2009Jim Carrey returns to his face-pulling schtick in this rather loveable comedy with a powerful little message. Best of all, he manages to reel in the face-pulling to a point where it's tolerable and actually funny. Not only that, but a brilliant support cast and a witty script mak... ...( read more )

May 21, 2009Yes, it's funny, mild-mannered funny. Zooey Deschanel is one-of-a-kind.

May 13, 2009Withdrawn and depressed Carl Allen attends a self-help seminar that challenges him to say "yes" to everything as a way of improving his life. Jim Carey mugs and flails like never before, in this genial comedy whose plot is strikingly similar to his 90s hit Liar Liar. All... ...( read more )

Jeffrey M. Anderson, Combustible Celluloid
Reed takes on a fun, but not exactly brilliant screenplay and turns in a comedy funny enough to while away a couple of pleasant hours this holiday season. full review

Mike McGranaghan, The Aisle Seat
There is nothing new or ambitious about Yes Man. It is intended to be a textbook Jim Carrey silly comedy, and honestly, that's just fine by me. full review
December 19, 2008
Colin Covert, The Minneapolis Star Tribune
There are flat performances in the film, false situations and bad lines, but the laughs are there and the message about personal transformation is timeless. full review

A.O. Scott, The New York Times
Not far from that of Liar Liar, one of Mr. Carrey's biggest hits of the mid-'90s...That film was a philosophical tour de force compared with this one. full review

Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com
With Yes Man, Carrey has bled the well dry, doing everything he knows how to do, over and over again, just to prove that he still knows how to do it. full review
December 19, 2008
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
The comedy, to the extent there is any, consists mainly of Carrey's verbal asides and strained reactions to people. The script gives him very little to work with. full review
December 19, 2008
Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times
Yes Man is a typical Carrey vehicle (schematically, it's a lot like Liar Liar), but it's better than most of them due to a top-notch supporting cast. full review

J. R. Jones, Chicago Reader
It's nice to see a high-concept comedy with such a generous concept. full review

December 27, 2008I was worried, his supervisor friend was going to come out of the closet at some stage. That would have put Jim Carrey in a sticky situation, just like the neighbour...with the false teeth, ewww. Cringe worthy indeed.
