Feel-good romantic comedy at its best.

Rating: 8/10 (17 January 2011)

Truth is I was taken by a mild shock watching this film, cause this is a refreshingly good romantic comedy. Interesting and substantial characters, linear but fun and entertaining plot, some very well thought out scenes the -singing on the ledge scene- stands out for me and great chemistry between the love duo. To explain my earlier comment about being in shock I meant that it kinda reminded me "Bruce Alimighty", a miserable man sees a change in his life takes advantage of it but in the end he loses the plot until he finds out its true meaning, but "Yes man" is head and shoulders above that film. The acting is better, Jim Carrey is more mature, the jokes are funnier and the twists and turns of the plot are more rewarding. My only criticism has to do with the ending, obviously it is easy to predict but somehow i think it was a letdown.
All in all a great film and a fine way to spend a lonely Saturday night. 9 out of 10
