Yes Day is a charmingly wholesome and sweet family movie, but it's also not entirely inventive.

Yes Day may feel familiar to fans of family-friendly entertainment, but it’s a wholly amusing adventure nonetheless thanks to its enjoyable ensemble cast.

The ending scrambles to get back to the sweetness and charm of the earlier moments, but the high-volume silliness and the artery-clogging cheese that comes before it makes it hard to readjust.

The movie gently promotes a balanced sense of openness on the part of parents, who can help kids to grow by letting them make - and learn from - mistakes.

[In] this fun family movie... the conflict is all about learning to trust, know, and appreciate each other more... Where it's normal to be mixed and suburban.

Yes Day doesn't really amount to much, but works well enough according to its small pleasures.

A fun film that could've benefited from more eventful activities. Appreciated this depiction of parenting and their family dynamic was engaging.

Garner gives such a high-energy performance in the opening scenes of the film that it made me think it could be her last action role.

Both leads are much better than this. I respect Jennifer Garner's need to make one for the kids, but I would appreciate better drivel than this. Edgar Ramirez is a standee.

Arteta's brisk effort embraces the genre's colorful allures while avoiding any mawkish sentimentality.

An innocuous enough offering that most families can watch together, with some important life lessons thrown in for good measure. (Full Content Review for Parents - Slapstick Style Violence, Some Slight Suggestive Material, etc. - also Available)

It gets very very silly... But for much younger kids, they may enjoy it.

A pretty sweet and cute comedy... Jennifer Garner is famously likable, and she's likable here.

While certain challenges in this film may seem a little extravagant, there's an admirable lesson to be had for parents and children.

Yes Day is a film which features kids tipping sugar directly into their mouths, and that's probably the best analogy; a short burst of energy which might make you feel happy for a little while, but which ultimately isn't all that good for you.
