Yes Man (2008) 8/10

Starring : Jim Carrey, Zooey Deschanel, Bradley Cooper, John Michael Higgins, Terence Stamp
Director : Peyton Reed
Running Time : 100 mins

Loans officer Carl Allen (Carrey) has spent his entire life believing that saying no is the easy way out of any situation, but when he goes to see a motivational speaker (Stamp) he decides to try saying yes to every situation, an idea that has both positive and negative repercussions for his social life.

This is something of a return to form for Jim Carrey, with some of the comedy herein being reminiscent of such movies as Liar Liar. He manages to remain likeable, mainly because he is trying hard to please everyone, but it is his relationship in the movie with co-star Zooey Deschanel that lends this some much needed charm. Be warned, there are some very gross moments as Carrey finds himself unable to say no to anything people ask of him.
