Catherine Keener Sparkles in Virgin!

Rating: 8/10 (29 August 2005)

Catherine Keener really shines and lights up the screen in "The 40-Year Old Virgin." Her big smile dazzles and brings the movie to life. Keener plays outstanding roles in "Death to Smoochy" and "Being John Malkovich," but really seems to have found her stride in Virgin. This movie starts to sparkle from her very first scene!
This is the first movie I've seen Steve Carell in a lead role. In a comedy, timing is crucial and can be somewhat difficult for a newcomer, but Carell delivers. His task is made much easier by a very strong supporting cast.
Catherine Keener is very sexy. It is hard to imagine that anyone could go out on twenty dates with her and still be a virgin. All you young (early twenties) Hollywood actresses eat your heart out! This movie is well worth seeing and I would rank it right up there with "Wedding Crashers" as the funniest movie of the year! The movie is hilarious and very entertaining! - indy_94_99@yahoo.com
