The 40 Year Old Virgin

Don't let the ads fool you, this raunchfest earns its R rating incredibly well and still manages to sustain an oddly sweet and naive tone to it as well. Steve Carrell is the titular character who does have his reasons for still having his innocence (while owning a collection of comics and action figures might make it difficult to get laid, it isn't impossible - there are geek girls too), what makes this a scream is how his friends often seem more interested in Carrell's character getting laid, than he himself is.

Funny, funny film, well worth seeing right away before all the best gags are ruined for yoj.

Re: The 40 Year Old Virgin

This is definately meant to be a winner. I checked the reviews and they all rave about this movie. They even say is funny that American Pie...

Re: The 40 Year Old Virgin

Just saw this movie, and I have to say it is the best comedy i have seen in a while..I thought Wedding Crashers was the best comedy but this definately took it to a whole different level!! What are you doing sitting down, get up and go see it....

Re: The 40 Year Old Virgin

i saw it last night. pretty funny but i didn't think it was quite as funny as wedding crashers. pretty damn funny though.

Re: The 40 Year Old Virgin

Yeah. I agree completely. Second funniest movie after The Aristocrats for me in the past few months. Wedding Crashers was just not that good at all to me.

Re: The 40 Year Old Virgin

This was funnier than the wedding crashers. def. recommend this if you havent seen it

The previews look pretty good. I might actually go see this instead of waiting for the dvd. I can't believe it remained a top of the movie list this past week. Must be good then.

The 40 Year Old Virgin

Saw this movie was kind of dumb had only a few places that were funny I guess, would really suggest anyone to watch it, unless you are seriously very very very bored.

Re: 40 year old virgin

i thought it was pretty damn funny... just watched the unrated dvd... maybe it has something to do with their work environment, because i used to work at a similar place, but it was a hilarious movie.

Re: The 40 Year Old Virgin

i thought there were funny parts. and i LOL'd a couple times too. specially in the beginning when he's trying to pee with morning wood. lmao how true is that scene fellas?

thought the movie dragged on a bit though. did it really need to be 2+ hours? i think they could have conveyed the message in 90 minutes but thats me.

Re: The 40 Year Old Virgin

hmmm didn't think this one would be funny, but after reading your recommendations I'll sure check it out ... Saw Deuce Bigolow European Gigolow last week and that was't a topper so I wasn't into a comedy mood anymore...

Re: The 40 Year Old Virgin

I thought the movie had it's moments but it could have been sharpened up with more aggressive editing. I agree it went way to long.

Actually I think Steve Carell's tv show 'The Office' is funnier.

i want some fuckin' frrrrrrench toast! :lol:

Re: The 40 Year Old Virgin

I agree with the earlier comments. I liked "Wedding Crashers" better as whole and also agree that "40 Year Old Virgin" dragged on. I do like the "You know how I know you're gay..." bit and also the "...pussy on a pedestal." bit.

Re: The 40 Year Old Virgin

First half hour is hilarious, drags out like other similar styled comedies after then.

Re: The 40 Year Old Virgin

Wedding Crashers should be avoided at all costs.

#561435Post 21 of 27

Re: The 40 Year Old Virgin

The scene where he tried to put a condom on was hillarious...I am lmao just thinking about it.

Re: The 40 Year Old Virgin

Re: The 40 Year Old Virgin

Re: The 40 Year Old Virgin

There's some hilarious dialogues in the movie. Some of the best bits were the snippets that show the interactions between everyone working at Smart Tech. Check out the deleted scenes on the DVD--some of them are a bit draggy, but still cracked me up.

Agree that the whole movie could've been more aggressively edited.
