    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      While filming the scene in the bar where Carl runs into a waitress and falls on his back, Jim Carrey did the stunt incorrectly, fell to the floor harder than he expected, and broke three ribs in the process.
    • Goofs
      In the scene where they travel to Nebraska and attend a football game and their friends see them on TV, the bottom of the screen reads "Nebraska vs. Oklahoma". It should read the other way around; as they were in Lincoln at a home game; the home team appears second.
    • Quotes

      Allison: The world's a playground. You know that when you are a kid, but somewhere along the way everyone forgets it.

    • Crazy credits
      There are no opening credits. The title doesn't even appear on screen until the start of the end credits.

    Jim Carrey is Superb!

    Jim Carrey is Superb, YET AGAIN, in his 2008 box-office hit 'Yes Man'. A Decent Comedy, that works mostly because of Carrey's Performance.

    'Yes Man' Synopsis: A guy challenges himself to say "yes" to everything for an entire year.

    'Yes Man' is entertaining & innovative. Sure, it's not out-and-out hilarious, but Carrey's Matchless Comic-Timing & Impeccable Screen-Presence do the trick.

    Nicholas Stoller, Jarrad Paul & Andrew Mogel's Screenplay is Innovative & Funny. Peyton Reed's Direction is passable. Cinematography, Editing & Art Design, are mention-worthy.

    Performance-Wise: Obviously, Carrey owns this film, with a Superb Performance. The Legendary Actor is truly unbeatable! Zooey Deschanel is excellent. Bradley Cooper is quite good. John Michael Higgins does well. Terence Stamp is awesome.

    On the whole, 'Yes Man' works! Say "YES" to this one!
