Funniest movie of the year, just one small problem

Rating: 8/10 (11 November 2005)

I went into this movie expecting it to be funny (considering the trailer), but I didn't realize it would be THAT funny.
Steve Carell is a seriously amazing actor who makes you laugh just by looking at him as he played the role really well, making the correct facial expressions in any situation. Some scenes made me fall on the floor from laughter and I really felt my ribs were hurting.
The story about a 40-year-old virgin whose younger friends are determined to get him laid ASAP. The story goes on to show you how they try to train him, telling him what to say, when to say it, how to act with girls.
The way the story shows the different types of girls is really brilliant, how each time you see a new one, you would think: "This one will be normal, unlike the one before!" only to show you that she is just weirder, that is on the sexual level.
I loved everything about this movie, except one small thing: The way the main character, the 40-year-old virgin talks to new girls/women make him look like a pro, and like he has been doing it for his entire life. There is a scene where is only suppose to ask a girl questions, and the way he asks them really makes you stop and ask yourself: "So, if he is really that good with girls, how come he stayed a virgin?" They only showed him nervous when he is trying to contact the woman he liked the most, played by Catherine Keener, but that happened two times, on the third, he just goes in and asks her to go out with him. Now lets face it, someone who hasn't tried to come near a woman for over 20 years will need a lot more work than this. It all seemed to flow nicely. I realize this is a comedy and whatnot, but still, a little credibility would have helped.
I think this is the only reason why this movie doesn't get 9 stars (no movie can get more). Other than that, it has one of the funniest scenes you can ever see this year and the scene keeps on coming and coming without it being repetitive or boring. They took it to the limit, w/o boring the audience.
