The 40 Year Old Virgin

Pros: Carell, Keener, many funny moments
Cons: Not deep or profound on the subject

What's it like to be a 40 year old virgin? You could ask me, or you could watch the comedy "The 40 Year Old Virgin" starring Steve Carell. If you ask me, you might not be as amused. Carell stars as Andy, a stock room clerk at an electronics store. At ...

Pros: *Steve Carell
*Laugh Out Loud Funny!
Cons: A few slow spots...but not many.

The last time my husband and I went to the movies we saw a preview for 40 Year Old Virgin. While it wasn’t high on my list of must see movies, I thought it looked as if it may be humorous. Today Michael said he wanted to see March ...

Pros: Really funny subject matter, a great story
Cons: Very crude

The title of The 40 Year-Old Virgin pretty much explains it all. This movie stars Steve Carell as the title character in this sex comedy that doubles as a love story. It is very much rated R and you should not take the kids to see it. It is as ...

Pros: interaction among the four guys
Cons: Trish fell flat for me, extremely raunchy

It seems 2005 was a big year for raunchy movies. While I wouldn’t touch Deuce Bigalow: European Gigolo with a 40-foot pole, I did wind up seeing two movies last year that were considerably more low-brow than what I would normally attempt. I ...

Pros: lots of jokes, humor based on honesty, good observations
Cons: predictable, raunchy, not for everyone

We'd like to think that everyone has a story to tell. The nice thing about comedy, as a genre, is that it believes this. Not everybody is a good subject for a drama. Not every life is the stuff of a horror flick. Not every soul belongs in an action ...

Pros: Humorous; Interesting concept; Good cast
Cons: No depth; Profanity and sex scenes could turn some viewers off

I like a good comedy movie and I appreciate an occasional comedy that is a little off the wall and unlike other films in its genre. One movie that certainly fits this description is The 40 Year Old Virgin, a comedy about an awkward middle- aged ...

Pros: Great dialogue, funny as heck, cast interaction
Cons: over emoting in a few scenes

I love Paul Rudd. The boy is fond of Steve Carell. It was imperative, therefore, that we went to see The 40-Year-Old Virgin this past weekend. We went in with low expectations and left with Joker-like grins on our faces. The movie was ...

Pros: Very funny, characters, acting, overall a really good comedy.
Cons: Offensive to people who don't like that, a lot of swearing and graphic talk.

This movie was actually a pleasant suprise. Going into the movie I didn't think it would be that good, but I am actually impressed with it. It is an all out funny comedy, it has a point and tries to send a message I guess, but overall this is a movie ...

Pros: Laugh-out-loud funny, great character development, happy ending
Cons: Lots of profanity, will offend some

I watched The 40 Year Old Virgin last night and I laughed, a lot. I’d like to start my review with the disclaimer that this IS a very sexual movie and I wouldn’t watch it with my parents or recommend it to anyone who is easily offended. ...

Pros: Casting
Cons: Foul language, racy subject matter.

I wasn't sure I wanted to see the movie, the 40 Year Old Virgin. I was sure Hollywood would be poking fun at someone who kept his virginity much past the age of 15. I was sure they would be pulling every trick in the book to put this guy down. ...

Pros: Couple of decent gags? OK concept. Carell, in moments.
Cons: Misogynistic, not terribly imaginative or original

Most readers who follow my reviews know my tastes are generally wide, but that I become most effusive with praise for films that are artistic, imaginative, offbeat, and original. That doesn’t mean I am immune to the American mainstream ...

Pros: Steve Carell; Catherine Keener; Paul Rudd; some very funny sequences; oddly moving
Cons: Aggressively courts low brow humor

For those of you not sure about what to expect comedy wise from Judd Apatow's new movie THE 40 YEAR OLD VIRGIN, have no fear. The wait lasts just two shots. Andy Stitzer (Steve Carell) lies asleep just long enough for the main titles to come on. Then ...

Pros: Age of Aquarius scene, Carell, funny and endearing story
Cons: Crude and insensitive at times, though for many watchers this may be a Pro

My wife and I are big fans of Steve Carell from his role as the idiot weatherman Brick Tamblin in the Will Ferrell vehicle Anchorman. We even sat through some episodes of the not terribly funny sitcom, The Office in which Carell would have a lead role. ...

Pros: Characters, dialogue.
Cons: A few overdone scenes.

The poster for The 40-Year-Old Virgin couldn't possibly be more perfect. You see the poster; you see Andy Stitzer (Steve Carell) smiling off into the distance with his four-year-old-cousin hairstyle and collared shirt. When I saw it, I turned to ...

Pros: A sex comedy with a good moral to it, plus nonstop laughs
Cons: I'm a little tired of the black stereotypes in movies.

(I’ve not done a review in a while, so I’m a little rusty. Please be gentle with Little Matty.) For once I have found a comedy that doesn’t poke fun at the virgins and guys with little experience with women, because I happen to be just like the ...
