YES MAN (2008)

"This Is The Jim We All Love To See On The Silver Screen!"

Jim's Back! And this time he's not playing a Pet Detective, or a Silly guy with a Mask, Or Even a Funny Bank Robber. Nope! He's none of thee above! HE'S YES MAN! lol. Jim plays a depressed "No-er" [You could say] who is making all the ones around him angry. But when Carl [Jim's Character] decides to join the "YES PROGRAM", he learns that saying Yes to everything will change his life forever. In good...and bad ways. lol. Can you hear those comedy bells? lol. I really enjoyed this movie because Jim shows us the inner-side that everyone needs. The message in this movie is to live-life while it lasts. We'll thats what i got from watching this. I got that if yea have fun than your life isnt wasted. If you see the movie, you'll see what i'm talking about. lol. The movie is also very funny. Jim doesn't just show us that he can be completly stupid in this movie but he can be very serious at points too! Jim doesnt just act stupid in this movie but he plays a character that he really brought to life on the silver screen! He brought a sad-depressed character on the screen, then brought a fun-energetic character to the screen. He completly played two parts...in a way. lol. Jim does a great job in this movie and so don't the other actors and if you haven't seen this yet, then i suggest you do. Its loads of fun. Its for the whole family, i dont care what the humor is like, this is a fun movie for family and friends to enjoy with you. This movie is not a let-down despite critic reviews. But that is my opinon. Not yours.

The acting in this movie is good. Everyone was good but i did feel a watse of skill from Zooey Deschannel during the movie. She CAN be a good actress but in every movie she's always so blank! I need some emotion in her character. She always makes the same expression on her face. The blank expression! I felt nothing at all from her character what-so-ever but i never do from any of her movies. That's all that bothered me with the acting in this movie. But, there is somethig else about Zooey. Its not her fault but always in her movies she seems to fall for the older man. In "Elf", she fell for Will Ferrel. AGE DIFFERENCE. In "The Happening", she fell for Mark Wahlburg. AGE DIFFERENCE. And in this she falls for Jim Carrey in which Jim is at least 15 years older than Zooey. Maybe even twenty. There is a huge age difference. I would just like to see her casted with the right brand-of-love interests. I want to see her fall for actors her own age in her movies. But thats really not a big deal, i just thought i'd bring it up.

This movie is funny and its really good. I like the message and point of YES MAN, the message is :HAVE FUN! LIVE LIFE!. lol. The acting is good, the plot is great. Overall: B+. But there's nothing wrong with a B+. Remember, see this movie while it's out. Its just fun to watch!

Oh and the directing is good too! I liked the way the director filmed the raining barn scene.
