Jim Carrey returns to comedy in Peyton Reed's "Yes Man," a film in which he plays a guy who agrees to say "yes" to everything for a whole year. Zooey Deschanel, Bradley Cooper and John Michael Higgins co-star, and here is what the Web's critics have to say about the film:

• William Goss at Cinematical: "Yeah, no, it's all so familiar and funny in about equal measure, a ready-made Christmas-time crowd-pleaser that'll pretty much play it safe, even in its cruder moments, and will be in circulation on cable soon enough."

• LatinoReview's Ron Henriques: "Even some of the gags that fall flat manage to be somewhat entertaining, including Carrey's budding relationship with geeky supervisor Rhys Darby who throws 'Harry Potter' and '300' viewing parties in full costume."

• Matt Goldberg at Collider: "Thankfully, director Peyton Reed knows his comedy and he's able to somewhat restrain Carrey and more importantly, find charm in corny situations."

• Neil Miller at FilmSchoolRejects: "Sure, I recognize that this movie isn’t a great film, but as it turns out I did catch myself laughing quite a bit."

• Brad Brevet at RopeOfSilicon: "'Yes Man' is funny, but its couple of moments of questionable PG-13 humor may be its ultimate downfall with the more family friendly crowd, which typically turn films like this into bonafide blockbusters."
