Yes Man

One word can change everything.


Yes Man

One day, he attends a motivational seminar and decides to become a True Believer, saying ''Yes'' to all requests. The rest of the movie follows the various situations that this policy lands him in, while also exploring his relationship with the two new women in his life.

Chicago Sunday Times
Roger Ebert quote iconJim Carrey is heroic at trying to keep the movie alive, and succeeds when he is free to be goofy and not locked into yes-and-consequences.
10
eye Weekly
Adam Nayman quote iconThe borderline ick factor inherent in Carl and Allison’s impulsive, montage-abetted courtship is the only thing in this moribund movie that provokes any sort of response beyond mild boredom.

Rolling Stone
Peter Travers quote iconIf you're thinking ''yuck,'' you're right. I added the extra star for Zooey Deschanel, who is so delicious as his honey that you want not to say no to Yes Man.

C. Fuchs quote iconUnless you can't stand Carrey and his usual brand of physical comedy, fans of the comedic actor will probably be hard-pressed to say no to ''Yes Man.''

Internet
4261 Netizens quote iconMore of a ''yeah'' instead of a definitive YES, but, thanks to Carrey and the other fine cast members, it is still enjoyable
