Yes Man (DVD)











Jim Carrey has still got it.

We’ve seen Carrey in a role like this many times before, but at least he still knows how to be funny. Remember Liar Liar? In that great film, he played a character that could NOT lie, no matter what. In Yes Man, he plays Carl, a guy who can NOT say the dreaded word “No”. That’s right. When his character reaches a low point in life, he reluctantly takes someone’s recommendation to become a “Yes Man”. It means that he has to say “Yes” to whatever is presented to him so he can open up the doors to all of life’s possibilities. That makes way for some hilarious (and gross) situations he finds himself in. Yes Man isn’t the most original comedy to come along, but Carrey and co-star Zooey Deschanel make it worth watching for some good laughs.
