There's nothing ashamed in being a virgin.

Rating: 10/10 (20 April 2008)

People lose their virginity at certain ages; some lose them at a young age around middle school or high school like this girl I knew who got pregnant at fourteen while others wait until they go to college to experiment life. But if you're Andy Stitzer at age 40 and haven't had sex, it's nothing to be ashamed about.
In Judd Apatow's comedy, Steve Carell plays the title character of the 40 Year Old Virgin as Andy Stitzer. He works at a Circuit City wannabe store where on his spare time he collects action figures and rides a bicycle to work along with other places instead of driving a car or picking up women for the matter. He's a nice guy but doesn't have to courage to come out of his shell; even the workers he associates with from David (Paul Rudd), Cal (Seth Rogan), and Jay (Romany Malco) find him a bit disturbing thinking to a point where he might be a serial killer. It's not until Andy reveals at a poker game that he's been a virgin all his life due to the fact that he couldn't get it on with chicks during high school. The trio help Andy find women by taking him to bars and giving advice on how to pick up women. Their plans fail where women think of Andy as too odd while one of them throws up on him when getting a lift home. It all changes when Andy meets Trish (Catherine Keener) at his workplace and helps her out in choosing a DVD player where sparks fly and maybe he'll have his opportunity to lose his virginity.
The 40 Year Old Virgin is not only one of the funniest films I've seen, but it's also one of the those comedies where it doesn't really have to be offensive to the subject of sex or those who never had experience sex and want to try it out. I also love the Steve Carell character where he was believable to make me want to watch the rest of the film without having to walk out on a good-to-be-true comedy that's just a riot from start to finish.
