A movie review and critic By Leanne Cari
Jim Carrey has said yes to “ Yes Man,” putting the Warner Bros. comedy first on his busy schedule, which has been amped up since his move to CAA. Based on a memoir by British author Danny Wallace, “Yes Man” casts Carrey as a guy who aims to change his life by saying yes to absolutely everything that comes his way. A movie review and critic By MICHAEL FLEMING
Carrey stars as a lonely loan officer who suddenly vows to say yes to every opportunity that comes his way in Yes Man. But it was longtime Carrey fan Bradley Cooper who fell over himself to say yes to costarring as Carrey’s best friend. ”I just didn’t want to mess up,” he says. Little did Cooper know that his nose would nearly be broken by the comedic contortionist. ”There was a brawl scene outside a bar and there were 15 extras and stuntmen, and Jim shouts, ‘Let’s just do it,’ says Cooper. “These guys ram into each other, and in one take, Jim pops his head up and bashes me in the nose.” A movie review and critic By Entertainment Weekly

A diminutive mouse strives to make a mammoth change in his troubled kingdom in this adaptation of author Kate DiCamillo’s Newbery Medal-winning children’s book. A long time ago, in the distant kingdom of Dor, a horrible accident broke the heart of the king, left a beautiful princess crestfallen, and filled the townspeople with despair. As the sun disappeared from the sky and the flowers were drained of color, the laughter slowly ceased in this once-magical land. It was into this darkened world that a tiny mouse named Despereaux Tilling was born, and while this virtuous little rodent may have been short in stature, his bravery was ultimately too big for such a small world to contain. An unlikely hero with oversized ears and a discernible wheeze, Despereaux was taken with tales of chivalry, and longed to one day become a noble figure among his people. Sometimes in order to realize their true destiny, heroes must first experience great hardship, however, and when Despereaux fails to adhere to the rigid rules of his society, he is banished from Dor.
