Sometimes a likable cast can make an otherwise iffy sounding movie more appealing. Such is the case with the upcoming family comedy from Netflix. The film stars the ever-pleasant Jennifer Garner who makes credit card commercials charming and the talented, often underappreciated Édgar Ramirez. Both will need to use all of their allure in “Yes Day”, a movie that’s built on a pretty shaky premise. But maybe that’s unfair. As the first trailer shows us, all it wants to be is a fun family romp with a little bit of heart. Is that so bad?
Garner and Ramirez play parents in a rut. Tired of always telling their three children “NO”, the couple agree to have a Yes Day. For 24-hours the kids get to make the rules and the parents have to say “YES”. Those of us who are parents know how terribly this would go in the real world. But in “Yes Day” the hijinks-filled adventure brings the family closer together in ways they never thought possible. Now I admit this isn’t my kind of movie meaning I may not be the best judge of such high-energy family chaos. But sometimes happy, fun-loving, all-age-appropriate movies are just what people need.
“Yes Day” premieres March 12th on Netflix. Check out the trailer below and let me know if you’ll be seeing it or taking a pass.
Keith & the Movies 
It’s looks like the whole fam would love it (as a fantasy!) and that it would brighten a dreary March. I don’t have young kids so may or may not watch it.
I’ll probably give it a go. No “young” kids anymore but still could make for some fun family time.
This is harmless. Plus, it does look like fun. A movie about parents having fun with the kids and not say no for a day. Yeah, I think this is something nice for the family and I’m sure it’s not going to get great reviews but how can anyone not enjoy Jennifer Garner in silly outfit and smiling with Edgar Ramirez?
Exactly. I can think of a lot worse ways to spend a Saturday afternoon than with Garner and Ramirez.
Just no.
