Disappointingly tame and unfunny documentary, following two well-intentioned activists as they masquerade as WTO spokesmen and mock the greed of their target audience. Problem is, their humour is too opaque, their audiences too small, their effect negligible. And where is the savagery? A wasted opportunity.

I thoroughly enjoyed seeing the Yes Men with their antics. They have the balls to go through audacious plans that could save the planet in the long run.

Attention-seekers parading as activists. When you make people look foolish, you're more likely to strengthen your opponents' resolve than convince them of your position. I support their causes, but not their methods. Adding in a bit of personal drama between the two renders the film even more pointless and indulgent.

8/19/15 Amazon Instant Video A funny and creative look at a serious issue. Thank goodness there are people like The Yes Men and their compatriots who take the time and energy to try and correct serious problems such as climate change. It is a little discouraging that the "bad guys" still seem to be winning.

The faux press conferences and perverse inventions (SurvivaBall, anyone?) that are included here highlight corporate greed and governmental shortsightedness as shrewdly as ever.

As usual, the mood is genial and the anticorporate politics refreshingly blunt.

Washington Post

Although this latest documentary is, in large part, simply more of the same stuff we saw in the earlier films, there's also a lot of background material here about Servin and Vamos that makes this outing a bit more interesting.

Rated: 2.5/4

Even with some overt directorial choices, The Yes Men Are Revolting still works.

"The Yes Men Are Revolting" is an entertaining ride through the past few years, but for all its exuberance, a deep gloom remains.

Please do not think that I am resorting to a banal cliché when I say that you do not want to miss it.
