Yes Man (DVD, 2009)

I watched this movie. I thought it was a mediocre movie nothing special about it. Yes man is very similar to Jim Carey's previous movie Liar Liar.(U get to see the aged Jim). Story about a lazy person who learns the power of the word yes, it'll bring him opportunities, job promotion & find love of his life. For example, as a loan officer he starts approving every loan request, which will get him a promotion. Jim is a great actor but his previous lines of movies have all been disasters. This one is not as good as Ace ventura sequals but it will give you laughs.

Several movies lately just seem to strike a cord for me, and this one has to be one of those that I can totally relate to.

Saying the word "YES" to everything seems to insinuate within the film that, if you just continue saying Yes to every question, you will be more happy and successful. The proof seems to be that Carl (Jim Carrey), after a split with his wife, becomes withdrawn and wants to avoid any situation in his life. This is very typical behavior for people who tend to be totally devastated in life after many unpleasant occurrences leave him squirming in social situations.

Carl is soon invited by an aquaintance to attend a self-help seminar intended to change people who say No to life into people that say Yes. After seeing the results of saying Yes firsthand, Carl says No a few times and finds that he seems to be cursed when he does wind up saying No, so he continues saying Yes to everything. This pays off for Carl which causes a domino effect of good fortune.

The film gets extra funny since he turns from a total introvert into a totally willing and zany extrovert which gives Jim Carrey's character a chance to stage his comic charm. Carl begins to realize that indiscriminately agreeing YES to every request leads him down a path similar to his safe, yet lonely life.

Carl meets Allison (Zooey Deschanel) and become his main love interest. Carl is totally cut off guard with Allison as she is open and as interesting as he dreams a mate should be. After seeing the full side of Allison, he gets past the first glance stage and develops heavy chemistry between them. It turns out, however, saying Yes all the time to her drives her to think he is totally insincere about his love towards her. The story gets really interesting when Carl's Ex-wife approaches Carl again.

Carl's good friend played by Danny Masterson of THAT 70s SHOW's adds and extra nuance of situations to the mix.

That last scene of film gave me a chuckle and allowed the viewer to have a feeling of resolve about leaving a good feeling with a happy ending.

Carl's boss was a gas and actually made the film a bit more interesting, making us aware of how many people in our life just have problems fitting in to our particulars.

I'll give this film a 5/5 for it's honesty and staying on track.

SUPER FUNNY!
one of the best movies ive seen ina while

you have to buy this movie!
yes man is one of my favorites for 2009!

Wow, what a brilliant movie. I can watch it over and over again. If anyone has not watch it, please go and get it or buy it. Its soooo funny.

Jim Carrey (LIAR LIAR, THE NUMBER 23 and many more) stars in this comedy about a man who attends a seminar on how to improve the quality of your life by always saying yes, never no.

Other actors in the movie include Zooey Deschanel (Bridge to Terabithia & The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and more), Veteran actor Terence Stamp (Wanted, Red Planet and many more).

Stamp stars as the 'Yes Man" the man with the plan who makes Carrey commit to saying Yes. Along the way Carrey meets Deschanel who is a free spirited musician.

The movie has a good premise and the acting is good.

Their are some very funny parts to this movie but most of the movie is about average as far as comedies go.

I rate this movie a 4 of 5 for good acting and a number of good laughs.

If your a Carrey fan this is a must. If your not a fan but want a couple of good laughs go ahead, its worth the price.

I'm not much for Jim Carrey, but he did well in this movie; he was not just an obnoxious dummy as he tends to be (to me). Says yes to everything, has some good hidden meanings of how to live a happy, positive, outgoing life

Order came very fast and was everything that it was advertised to be. Had no issues with payment. Well packaged.

I buoght this item over 1 month already, but I still not receipt this item yet. I try to contac the seller but no respond. So don't buy anny thinksfrom this seller. Half .com is bad to because they have not thinks can contas them when you have problem with seller.

This movie is one of Careys best ever. It's funny and romantic. I bought this because it's my husbands favorite movie and it's going to be his christmas gift so we can stop renting it from netflix.

The title fits perfectly,everything seems to change into his favor when he starts to say yes to everything.You have to know there is sometimes that you just might have to say no.Good movie go out and buy a copy to enjoy,I did and it's a good addition to my dvd library.

One of Jim Carey's best.. Many of us hide from life.. See what happens when you are forced to live it..

Jim at his best. This is about a guy who just wants to give up. Untill he goes to a convention. Then everything falls into place. Just say yes and watch this one for all the laughs.

Brand new movie! Jim Carrey is hilarious. It was less expensive than in the stores so I purchased it on eBay. Great Deal... Great Movie! Fast shipping, Great Seller. Love it. Thank you :)

This is a fun movie to watch. Everyone in the family can enjoy it! The 'Red Bull' scene is a blast! Jim Carrey, as always, pulls it off without a hitch. There is a pretty good support cast to boot.

Great movie...Jim Carrey shines as usual! Very funny with a love story that only helps the comedic premise of the film. Enjoyable even after multiple viewings.

Going to be a classic Very interesting how we get stuck and maybe there is a lesson for getting unstuck.
Great Movie

the reason i bought this movie is because it is a good movie. regardless of who was selling the item i wanted to purchase it.

Ok movie but I probably would not recommend buying it....maybe a rental choice however. When Jim Carrey is good he is great. He was just not that funny in this movie.

i loved the movie. i like the character jim carey, he is one of my favorite actors. i enjoyed it very much indeed. hope to come across more movies like this.

Just like the seller stated- the DVD was new and in the package. It arrived on time and it was at a great price.
I'll definately buy from this seller again.

I am a jim curry fan . But away from that the move was over great full of laughs that keep you in the mood to watch more and more .
I brought it as i love a lough and jim curry fan
