Yes... Well maybe.

Rating: 3/10 (22 June 2011)

Based very loosely on the far superior book by Brit Danny Wallace this film allows Jim Carrey to do all the things that we'd expect Jim Carrey to do.
The basic idea of a guy saying yes to everything is simple enough and the film acts as a vehicle for Carrey's talents as he gurns and mugs his way through set piece after set piece.
There are some good moments in the film, but there are equally some dull and crude ones, and while it is an easy enough film to watch but lacks the tongue in cheek humour of the original novel of which very little remains. I understand Wallace's decision to take the spirit of the book and turn it into a film but really there was nothing wrong with the original book.
Although Carrey is great in this sort of film the real shining light of the film is the very cute Zooey Deschenel who brings a great deal of warmth and heart to the role.
Overall an average film but lacks the spirit of the original book.
