Funny. And I don't do comedies

Rating: 8/10 (3 September 2005)

It's not often I go to the theatre to see a comedy. I'm glad I did with this one. I didn't feel ripped off at all. It uses all the clichés you can think of for 40 year old virgins and plays them up. The main character is well done and as much as you laugh at him and with him, you have to respect him for being who he is. The buddies and co-workers are a hoot too. At first you can tell it's a game to them but they end up truly wanting to help and of course it just gets worse then. The part in the trailers you see with the waxing is better in full length. The little gags and subtle things are what make this comedy work. The script is funny too, but the whole package is what does it for me. The only downside was the ending. It gets a little hokey, but it's a comedy and they have to sum it up somehow. Overall, it's fun. Even 40 year old virgins will laugh.
