Yes Man
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.

As much as I try to convince myself I'm tired of Jim Carrey, darn it, he almost always amuses me.

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.

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.

It's a small, nice return to form by Jim Carrey.

As self-help comedy, the movie is no more overdetermined than its own highbrow counterpart, Happy-Go-Lucky.

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.

I have to admit that it was pretty funny a lot of the time.

I think this movie needs to be skipped.

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.
