Carl Allen's life is going nowhere, the operative word being 'no', until he signs up for a self-help program based on one simple covenant: say yes to everything, and anything. His professional and romantic life turns upside down overnight, but better can be good's enemy.

It's a decent enough time-killer for Carrey fans and those after something light and non-taxing after a heavy Christmas Day feast.December 19, 2008
The first time I saw Yes Man, I thought the concept was getting kind of stale toward the end. As it turns out, that was only the trailer.December 19, 2008
If you own the superior Liar Liar, you might as well stay home and watch it again. When Hollywood can't be both-ered to come up with new ideas, we have every right to just say no.December 22, 2008
I think this movie needs to be skipped.December 19, 2008
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.December 17, 2009
A ready-made Christmas-time crowd-pleaser that pretty much plays it safe, even in its cruder moments, and will be in circulation on cable soon enough.August 30, 2009
Mr. Carrey's performance is a return to the rubber-faced roles that dominated multiplexes in the mid- to late '90s, and that's not necessarily a good thing.April 04, 2011
As much as I try to convince myself I'm tired of Jim Carrey, darn it, he almost always amuses me.April 04, 2011
I have to admit that it was pretty funny a lot of the time.December 19, 2008
It's a small, nice return to form by Jim Carrey.October 06, 2011
As self-help comedy, the movie is no more overdetermined than its own highbrow counterpart, Happy-Go-Lucky.
