a we all know the sub genre of sex comedy be pretty crowd . simply be excessively raunchy isn not enough anymore . i have see and hear so many disgust joke and action that a sex comedy really need to have other positive point to appeal to me these day . come into the 40 year old virgin i know basically what to expect while i do see the commercial after all while be it true that if you do not use it and you lose it . what i do not expect to find be a heart and honest attempt at character development . there still the weird off the wall character that we see so much in adam sandler movie and there still enough inappropriate language to sink noah ark but somehow the movie have a worthwhile love story and yes even a message . the main character andy be ( unfortunately for me ) a person i can relate to . in the first shot i see that he even share my love for mystery science theater 3000 ( he have a poster for the movie on his wall ) and throughout the movie we get to see his really neat collection of antiquity . andy also have plenty of video game and a working knowledge of film and technology . andy doesn not want to buy a car because he prefer his bike . most importantly of all while andy be a nice person and he doesn not swear and he respect woman so much that he stay away from them . combine all these factor and everybody begin to think he a serial murderer . it like my life story . the other character each have funny little story to go along with their slightly exaggerate personality and they all work on a certain level but not the way andy do . i felt that it be sort of distract in a way since andy and his girlfriend trish be really the only truly human character in the entire movie . i suppose since i mention one flaw i might as well bring the other noticeable one to light . the story be clever but too predictable and as far a romance go while it quite simple . it deal with andy relationship with trish for a long time and we all know what go to happen in the end . sure it final detour be a bit different than we may expect but you know what go to happen in the end and and i assure you it do . these be definitely small stain on the movie but there so much good here that i can easily ignore it few fault . when i say good i mean bad of course . this be a sex comedy and it want to be bad . for the most part i think it succeed . there be so many hilarious scene such a andy try to get rid of an erection after refuse to have sex with trish . or the scene where andy go with his trish daughter to a sexual education class where he end up ask more question than anybody else . ah and we must not forget the soon to be classic chest wax sequence ooh . como se llama . an interesting little note about that scene while the actor steve carell actually do wax his belly and the pain show be real . of course they only do one take but it be still a very brave thing to do on his part . actually since be talk about steve carell and i would like to say that he have now rise on my list of respect comedian which be sort of odd since i do not even know who he be prior to see this film . i be just so impressed by his writing and acting and timing that i now really want to keep an eye out for his future roles . this man have talent it the 40 year old virgin prove that . to be honest i have doubt about this film but early word be positive and i know it be something i be eventually go to see . i be glad that i do too since it probably one of the funny movie i have see in a long time and it double a something you feel be worth watch . it not simply a series of sex gag lump together rather it a series of sex gag entwine with a very worthwhile character and a truly touching romance . now excuse me while i go puke my gut out while i can not believe i just write that . my review from frider wave represent http represent or or friderwaves . com or index . php . page equal virgin .
