the message of this movie was....

Rating: 6/10 (19 November 2009)

get a life, say YES. Jim Carrey plays Carl, a banker at a dead end job that always makes excuses as to why he can't do things. One day he meets an old friend that suggest he attend the YES seminar. Carl does and is convinced by the ringleader, Terrence, that he must say yes to all situations that come up.
Soon, Carl is giving rides to homeless guys, approving loans for everyone, and attending band concerts. At this concert, he meets his dream girl, Allison, in which he met a few nights earlier when getting a ride from her. Soon, Carl is hanging out with his friends and going out with Allison, doing all kinds of spontaneous things like taking trips to Lincoln, Nebraska.
Of course, we have the whole girlfriend getting mad at the guy and he must win her back at the end. The movie had it's funny moments, but not one of Jim Carrey's best.
FINAL VERDCIT: I'd probably skip this and see one of Carrey's better movies.
