Um... yeah. If you think that Kane is funny and that Steve Carrell isn't, then I really don't know what to say to you.

I saw it, found it very entertaining and funny which is what the movie is about. I'd recommend people go and see it as it's not as slapstick as most people think.

I thought it looked pretty good from the previews, but after seeing the scene that they've shown on all the late night shows, I've decided that it sucks.

Eighty nine percent? (http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/40_year_old_virgin/) I can't remember a recent comedy that has scored higher. I will have to see this.

Steve Carrell is brilliantly funny and i will see this movie tomorrow. my gf and her mom saw it last night and said it was the funniest movie they have seen this year (i am long distance from her right now).

for this ignorant comment you have made you are now the first first person i have ever put on my ignore list, so feel free to put me on yours.

so we have people going on ignore for movies they may or may not have seen yet?

that sounds about right for OOT...

watching the previews i thought it looked like a piece of garbage. after your post i just read the reviews and it sounds pretty funny. here's a review from ebert. this scene sounds like it could work.

Andy is one of those guys whose life is a workaround. What he doesn't understand, he avoids, finesses or fakes. On the job at the electronics superstore where he works, his fellow employees spend a lot of time talking about women, and he nods as if he speaks the language. Then they rope him into a poker game, the conversation turns to sex, and they look at him strangely when he observes enthusiastically how women's breasts feel like bags of sand.

I would have agreed with this, but I keep hearing people say this is amazing. I'll agree that the promotion made it look idiotic, but now I must see it, too many smart people liked it.

Add me to the ignore list please. Watched the movie last night and laughed my ass off. Decent flick. Good humor. As funny as the office but my wife thought it was funny also. She hates the office, doesn't like that style of humor I guess.

i love when he's riding his bike home after the poker game and beating himself up for blowing his cover as a virgin and repeats the line "me so horny" w/ such disdain while still faking an asain accent.

It's one thing if someone doesn't rank this as the number one greatest comedy ever. Fine. But to say that this movie was terrible or didn't have any humor value at all is ab-zurd.

What surprised me was how much I laughed at the waxing scene, since it was shown in every commercial and every preview. I figured I knew what to expect, but the stuff he yelled out, especially to the waxer, had me crying.

the same old tired jokes over and over in movies gets boring

the last 1/2 hour of the movie was [censored] retarded

This movie is fcking hilarious. I saw it in the theater and was dying laughing. I just got it in netflix yesterday and am about to watch it right now.

As someone above mentioned, the clear answer for Kane's hate is that the movie hits too close to home.

eh, i think it's a toss-up ... Wedding Crashers is all about Vince Vaughn. All his scenes were top notch. But the movie really grinds to a halt when the focus shifts to Owen Wilson's heartbreak. Even Will Ferrell could barely save the latter part of the movie.

this is why i have to say 40 yr old was hands down my favorite of the two. i actually thought wedding crashers was 30 minutes too long and there were too many moments were i actually got kind of bored with the movie.

someone said 40 year old just did the same old joke over and over again, well for me, i could care less if that same joke is funny. if you look at many of the great comedies they are very linear with their humor, hell we just had a thread about bad santa (one of my favorites) and it recieved a lot of praise and it was the same joke over and over as well. i still like hearing "are you [censored] with me kid?"

Just saw it yesterday, Carell was awesome.
When the movie hit, it was hilarious, but it dragged and there was a lot there that could have been cut.

The DVD is an unrated/extended type thing, with "17 minutes not seen in theatres", I didn't see the shorter cut, but I would bet it was better.
