The 40 Year Old Virgin : 4 of 5
9.15.2005 9:49 PM \| Link	Everyone I know loves this movie, and my parents told me that I had to go see it, so I was glad when my pal Ernesto asked me to go. This is definitely one of the funniest comedies I've seen in a long time, and it's wonderful how they balanced plenty of nasty humor with just enough sappy emotion. They could have easily made this a really "mean" movie, but instead it's handled perfectly! Our hero Andy lives in an apartment full of toys (yes, he has even more than I do!) and works at an electronics store, and his employee pals find out he's still a virgin. They do all kinds of things to set him up at bars, parties, dating services, and so on, but he actually finds the perfect someone on his own. There are some really funny sequences along the way - I really loved the little montage of how Andy spends his time at home (singing karaoke, playing video games, and so on), and the hair removal scene was definitely memorable (and absolutely real!). Speaking of hair, ending the movie with a hilarious musical number (from Hair) was such a fantastic idea! This is one of the sweetest "raunchy" movies ever, and I'm glad I saw it so I can appreciate this line: "I hope you have a big trunk... because I'm puttin' my bike in it." Labels: movies
