Knowing it had Jim Carrey in the main role I was interested too see what direction this movie would take. Seeing a lot of his previous work I was surprised to find this comedy a lot different than I had expected. It's a comedy and follows the normal recipe. A buildup where everything goes good, the breakdown and then the happy ending. Where so many other movies have failed, this somehow does not. All the characters are very likable and Allison played by Zooey Deschanel is breathtaking. In the end I was really rooting for the happy ending and felt that the movie had actually thought me something useful. You have to dare to say yes to opportunities that occur in your life.
However the movie is not perfect, at times the humor can be a little silly and or hard to grasp and a few scenes could easily have been replaced with better ones. All in all though it's a great fun feelgood comedy that most people will enjoy. 7/10
