Jim Carrey Misses in the Buzz-Kill Comedy 'Yes Man'new
Too bad Yes Man is directed by Peyton Reed, a tone-deaf, buzz-kill comedy specialist. You've never seen Carrey flail like he does under Reed's incompetence -- although the Quasimodo face he makes with scotch tape and some of his rubber-legged paroxysms are inspired.

'Yes Man' Isn't Exactly 'Liar Liar,' but It's Closenew
Even though the lesson gets a little heavy-handed, the film is full of goofy, joyful moments, anchored by the sweet chemistry between Carrey and Deschanel as well as a life-affirming message that everyone could use these days.
