When Jerry Lewis died Jim Carrey wrote that because of Jerry Lewis he is the comedian he is today. Jerry Lewis was part of a group of comedians who knew how to make you laugh. Your entire family could enjoy a good comedy skit or movie together. Today these comedian-wannabes don't know how to make a person laugh without including trash in their routine. The true comedians of Jerry Lewis's era didn't use profanity, make useless sex jokes, jab at public officials in order to put them down and make them look stupid in public. Don Rickles always made sure if he picked on anyone they could walk away feeling good about themselves and not be offended. All those comedians - Lewis, Rickles, Hope, Kaye, Benny, Martin, Skelton, etc - they didn't use trash talk comedians use today. Any of today's comedians who say they learned from the masters are lying. Comedians today inject their personal religious beliefs or personal political left-wing beliefs in their routine forcing paying customers to listen to them when it's no one else's business what the comedian believes or thinks. Jim Carrey made about 5 or 6 movies I liked and have. This movie "Yes Man" turned me completely against Jim Carrey because of the scene where a grandmother gave him a blow job. You didn't see the act but you knew what was going on. That was disgusting. Sorry Jim Carrey but you are not funny anymore and not worth the price of a ticket to see any of your trash! No comedian in this day and age is worth it.

This is a job well done. It has a coherent story (for a comedy), a good theme/message, is acted well (Jim Carey overacts, but you expect that from him), the casting is spot on, and it is directed without any significant issues. It is both fun and funny.It is not perfect, though. The jokes are not extremely funny or original. Directing, while fine, isn't original or by any other means remarkable. The realism could also be higher, as the tension/fun that the move away from realism brings isn't payed back well. As you can expect, the same goes for acting. Zoey Dechanel is very cute, but, quite unremarkable. Both her and Bradley Cooper are superbly cast, as he makes a great stereotypical best friend, but he too just doesn't do much more then "play by the book".As for the "message", I must protest to any message that inspires you to say "No" to Molly Sims. :)OK, I was kidding, but, to make a point - even the message, and that particular scene with Molly Sims, is fine, but not inspiring.

Jim Carrey is one if not my favourite comedic actor of all time. His quirky,silly,over the top and just down right insane is one word to describe him as a whole. So he decided to star in his romantic comedy debut(since all the other films he starred in were just comedies and not romantic) and it shows in this movie that his not as funny as he used to be.Here he plays a man called Carl Allen,a depressed banker(like his charcther in The Mask, Stanley Ipkiss who was also a banker)who always says no to everything.All Carl does on his night out is rent DVDs and spends some time with himself,as he suffered a marriage breakdown with a girl called Stephaine and his just laying cool. But when a friend of his invites him to go to a conference held by Terrence Stamp who persuades Carl to say Yes to everything, things starts happening like one where he meets and falls for a quirky singer songwriter named Alison(played by singer songwriter/actress Zooey Deschanel)who Carl met in a petrol station,and they spend some time together during their time together like going to a no- entry concert hall,gong to Nebraska for a weekend and of course fall for each other. But will he and Alison get together in the end well you have to see the film to know what is happening.Like I said Jim Carrey is a funnyman. His serious roles just don't suit him at all as without his over the top charm,his just a boring dull guy. And well.........it shows in this film. I enjoyed it as it was on last night and parts of it was funny but it was a bit boring as it wasn't Jim Carrey's best. Jim might as well quit acting and start something else.5/10Out of 5 stars 2.5/5C-

Yes man is a hilarious comedy about a man, Carl Allen, who said « No » at everything since his girlfriend broke with him. One day, at his work, he crosses an old friend who told his about a program that changed his life : you must say YES to everything ( Yes man). He will discover the Yes power. This is the funniest movie I've seen. When I feel sad, I look at this film and I forget all my problems. I smile throughout the film. Further, the cast is really attractive -> Jim Carey, Bradley Cooper and Zooey Deschanel. If you want to have a good time and relax, you need to watch this movie
