Surprisingly hilarious!

Rating: 10/10 (16 July 2006)

I swear I did not really want to see this movie, it just seemed so lame to me and like it was going to be nothing but potty humor. But recently I watched "Bravo's 100 funniest movies", and this ranked pretty high, so I think I was willing to let my guard down and see what this movie had to offer.
"The 40 Year Old Virgin" is one of the funniest movies I have seen! I couldn't believe how much I enjoyed it. I think because we felt so much for Steve's character and how pressuring it is in today's world to have sex. Especially for a guy! All the scenes were just great and so hilarious, like the waxing his hairy chest, I'm not a guy, but I was screaming for him! That looked so painful! I think in some sick way I gave guys a few more points after watching that, the things they go through just to make women happy.
It's a heart warming and very funny story that anyone could enjoy. We have a new classic comedy that I'm sure my kids will be talking about in 50 years. Let's hope the remake trend won't stick 'til then.
10/10
