    • Goofs
      Just before the second time Andy calls Trish and claims to be a telemarketer, there is a shot of the front of his apartment, and chained to the railing is the nice new red mountain bike that Trish buys for Andy much later in the movie.
    • Quotes

      Mooj: Hey Andy, don't let him bother you. It's okay not to have sex. Not eveybody's a pussy magnet. You, uh, what are you, 25?

      Andy Stitzer: I'm 40.

      Mooj: Holy shit, man, you got to get on that!

    Good Throwback to the 80s
    40 Year-Old Virgin, The (2005)

    *** 1/2 (out of 4)

    A geeky guy (Steve Carell) is still a virgin so his buddies try to get him laid. I went into this film expecting a one joke movie but was pleasantly shocked to see how much of a heart this thing had. The raunchy humor hit the spot but I never thought the film was cruel or mean, which would have really ruined this thing. The laughs are non-stop but the film has an incredibly big heart and best of all a rather touching ending. With this and Wedding Crashers there appears to be life for the comedy genre.
