Rubber-faced funnyman Jim Carrey effortlessly dominates this minor but often enjoyable comedy that employs a premise similar to the one for his 1997 hit, Liar Liar, in which he was forced to tell the truth at all times. In director Peyton Reed's Yes Man, Carrey plays Carl Allen, a terminally depressed loan officer who turns everybody down until an old friend (John Michael Higgins) drags him to a self-help seminar run by a charismatic guru (Terence Stamp) who insists Carl open himself up to life's possibilities by saying yes to everything. Needless to say, this practice has profound consequences (most enjoyable, but some scary), while also inadvertently introducing Carl to musician/photographer Allison (Zooey Deschanel), whose own anything-goes lifestyle proves conducive to romance. While there's nothing particularly novel about Yes Man, Carrey's schtick still works well, and Deschanel is remarkably appealing as the love interest. A strong optional purchase. (E.
