THE 40 YEAR OLD VIRGIN (2005) - Aug. 23, 2005
Steve Carell is really good in this film which, as the title implies, is about a 40 year old who's still a virgin. Carell is really funny, but at the same time manages to create a character we really come to like and care about. Equally good are Carell's three buddies, including the always excellent Paul Rudd, and Carell's love interest, played by Catherine Keener. The film was almost two hours long, but unlike Wedding Crashers it didn't feel long at all. Even the obligatory fake breakup wasn't too bad here, and didn't feel nearly as forced and pointless as it almost always does. ***1/2
