Review of The 40 Year Old Virgin (2005) by Hoss R — 08 Jul 2012
I got the DVD of this movie very recently hoping for a outrageous farce like 'death at a funeral' or ' the heartbreak kid' . sorry but do not think it should be talked about in same breath. the genre is a bit more of the rom com (romantic comedy )variety .
It is more a heartwarming movie in which the protagonist is looking for - and is in the process of getting- his true love. the fact that he is also a 40 year old virgin seems incidental. of course the team of horny/love lorn co workers get into the act of helping our man get some action.this results in some smarmy dialogue with verbal banter bonding the boys. its got a mild smattering of outrageous humour thrown in for measure. don't get me wrong it is not a bad movie but watch it if you are in the mood for a sentimental romantic comedy with a happy ending and bits of funny stuff .
As an aside - the interactions between the Asian and the African American character seemed a bit forced to me.
I guess it depends on what you are in the mood for. I repeat good if you like this kind of sugar and spice .
