Pretty Good movie for Jim Carrey

Rating: 7/10 (8 June 2009)

It has been awhile since Jim Carrey has come out with a comedy. His sad attempt at drama came in the form of The Number 23 last year in 2007, which completely sucked in all forms of sucking. Now he returns to the genre he shines in and that is comedy. This movie doesn't deliver laughs nonstop like in his other films, but the laughs are more realistic unlike other Carrey movies in which he does some crazy antics. We also see some decent supporting performances from Bradley Cooper and Danny Masterson, who play Carrey's friends. The movie actually does play Carrey as a totally different character, he normally is a fun loving character, but in the beginning he is portrayed as an uptight person that never has any fun. It all changes and the plot unfolds when he begins to say yes to everything, which brings a pretty funny cameo from Terrence Stamp. The movie actually ends on a decent moral, with him deciding to only say yes to things he wants to and learning the true meaning of saying yes. So basically it is worth a watch.
