Plots(1)
Andy Stitzer (Steve Carell) has gone 40 years without "doing it." Now his pals are making it their mission to help him score... fast! Can he survive their hilariously bad advice? Will he land in the arms of the way-too-experienced or the way-too-drunk? Or can he find true love where he least expects - from a gorgeous grandmother (Catherine Keener)? When it comes to sex, there's only one sure thing - The 40-Year-Old Virgin. (official distributor synopsis)

Because of the (as always) brilliant Steve Carell and the (utterly) charming Catherine Keener, I'm able to forgive this film for being so dirty. I laughed, I had fun, I thanked the filmmakers for restraining themselves (except for two short scenes with bodily fluids) in what they show the viewer... And when the film ended, I almost couldn't believe it lasted over two hours.

Some gags are hilarious (1 minute later), some completely out of place. On the second try, Carell is much more bearable, and most actors are more beloved (Rogen, Banks, and Jane Lynch) and the whole plot is more pleasant. Maybe it's because of the comparison with "The 40-Year-Old Virgin" or "Superbad" and therefore the final appreciation, but when strange films become surprising personal favorites, I appreciate them even more.
