Yes Man, based on the book by Danny Wallace
6 out of 10


Alas, 'hell is paved with good intentions'

The idea that we have to be positive, optimistic is not just noteworthy, it is fundamental.
Positive psychology studies have shown that optimistic people live longer, healthier, professionally rewarding and privately fulfilling lives.

Having said that, just saying Yes to everything is a ludicrous idea.
One outstanding book about the Upside of Your Downside explains whY saying no means, among so many other fabulous concepts.

With Jim Carrey leading the cast, this comedy could have worked.
Of only the script was better.

Or is it any good?

The enthusiastic of the stars, Zooey Deschanel, Bradley Cooper and iconic Terence Stamp in particular, does not overcome the flaws of the project.
It is hence futile to explain much about where and in what manner it all comes to pieces.

It would be

Much Ado About Nothing and saying yes to a failed film.
