I found it extremely entertaining.
Amazing how easy it was for those dudes to fake who they were.

9. Did you notice...? (mild spoiler) |
|
The only people in the film who were shown to have seen through a Yes Men ruse were college kids?
All of the "grownups" they show either (1) were fooled, or (2) didn't call them on it so as to maintain some decorum.
I loved this film when I saw it a few years ago at the Wisconsin Film Festival. I should watch it again.

The part about McDonalds re-cycling human waste to feed the poor in third world countries cracked me up because it's sounds exactly like something the WTO would do.
