The wide releases did not get very good reviews, but they seem harmless enough for anyone that picks them. The limited releases might not be harder to watch, but look a hell of a lot better.

Trailer
Synopsis: A man who is missing out on life takes a seminar that tells him that he must say yes to every opportunity that presents itself to him.
My Take: Too much of Jim Carrey can be overwhelming, but it does seem like a lightweight comedy that’s good for passing the time.
RT Score: 43%
RT Consensus: Jim Carrey’s comic convulsions are the only bright spots in this otherwise dim and predictable comedy.
