Carl, the actor played by Jim Carrey, is divorced and has no chance of being promoted at work. The love career is both unsatisfactory. Carl does not answer calls from friends, ignores his lovely boss, does not participate in any activities, and spends every night by renting a movie card. If this continues without the slightest change, life will really have entered a dead end, and there will be no room for Jin Carrey as an actor, so opportunities will always come quietly, good time now. The play just started.
Carl accidentally came into contact with a "YES training class" run by a liar, that is, he must take a positive approach to life and say "YES" to the needs of others, so that he can get more "YES" from the surroundings. In fact, just like fortune-telling, it is easy to be fooled by grasping a general mentality. The real problems faced by depressed people are nothing more than the two aspects of career and love. It seems that they have been hit by the key points at once, making people believe that they are true.
In the movie, Carl's changes really brought him a lot of unexpected gains. The relationship with the people around him has improved, his career has risen step by step, and his love has also ushered in new opportunities. Out of the personal world, when something happens, you may have a chance to get a good result. If you don't take action, how can you change it? On the other hand, when the interpersonal relationship is widened, when there is a need, you will find that it can be very simple.
Even if it was mechanically responsive at the beginning, but slowly got used to it and got sincere feedback, it would be easy to really open the heart, and subconsciously be guided to be able to truly speak out the inner feelings. This is of course a good thing for the individual, but not necessarily for the training class. Whether or not life becomes better is not the focus of his concern. It is the most important thing to continue to be his believers. So it is so simple to make a curse to prevent people from discovering the truth.
In romantic comedies, the design of characters is relatively important. It does not need to be complicated. For good or bad, the most important thing is to be pleasing. After watching this movie, the amazing thing is that I almost remember every character in the play (this may also be a personal relationship, because it seems that I haven’t watched this kind of movie for a long time, but at least every character All have his memory points). The branch manager who likes Cobb movies, the old neighbors with dentures, the tramp who likes making phone porridge, the "training class teacher" who is unlucky in a car accident, the jumper who is moved by singing, the Korean female shop assistant, the male nurse who likes motorcycles, etc. . There are also friends around the protagonist. According to the general settings, they are handsome and strange, and the strange ones are often more prominent (the strange one is lecherous in this film), and the handsome one is the vase. In the movie, the handsome guy has a lot of buddies, and there is a fiancee who doesn't like Carl, who is also a lawyer, and she is quite cute.
Of course, apart from the protagonist Karl, the most impressive is the heroine. Her lifestyle and attitude are very pleasing, freedom is not too chaotic or empty, she is beautiful and cute, and her voice is a little dumb and charming, which is very attractive.
At the end of the film, it ended without a large group member, and it was a little bit ironic. The members of the "YES training class" showed up in a nude pose, and their clothes would be donated to those in need. Who told them to respond to requests? The way to deal with some people is to use their methods to achieve their own goals (rather than blindly asking them to change). This is what the ancestors said of "returning one's body to the other's way". It is a pity that, like other so-called ancient wisdom, most of the time, we forget or choose to ignore it.
