Yes Men Fix the World is the second documentary to chronicle the Swiftian hi jinks of the titular progressive pranksters. (You'll recall their recent fake New York Post stunt.) Time Out's Stephen Garrett says, "the stunts are exhilarating, as much for their audacity as for the gullibility of their targets. But once the ruse is exposed, the short-term gain of humanist outrage evaporates into the chum of an obfuscating news cycle. God bless their antics, but the Yes Men’s jestful jousting feels more like tilting at windmills."
