Like a Virgin...,
MovieAddict - wrote on 09/16/2012
Andy Stitzer (Steve Carell) is your typical dorky guy who rides a bicycle to work. He works at an electronics store, he collects things, he is always in good spirits, and overall he is a pretty average 40-year-old guy who has plenty of video games and a working knowledge of films and technology. One day at his job, Andy gets an offer from David (Paul Rudd) to come play poker with him and his buddies Jay (Romany Malco) and Cal (Seth Rogen) as a necessary fifth member. Andy is very excited about the offer and accepts but then his new friends discover he is still a virgin during a rather sex dialogue filled conversation.
From that point on, the guys, who are also all dealing with relationship issues of their own, become determined to initiate Andy to the world of dating and eventual …

I'm a sucker for just about anything Steve Carrell is in these days. His comedy styles are awesome because he knows exactly how far over the top he can go before people would start getting turned away by it. The 40 year old Virgin is no exception. When I saw the scene with Andy playing poker with his friends Cal, Dave, and Jay and then sharing sex stories, I knew there would be a sense of frustration. You can tell when Andy makes up a story about having sex, and the others figure it out because Andy attempts to compare women's breasts to sand bags. Virgins, and those with little or no experience in the dating scene, have a hard time, because society seems to laugh at those who are left out.
One thing that I thought was a great approach in the movie that the majority of the dialog is …
