This Is Sanlitun
British sad sack Gary is a failed entrepreneur who has just arrived in Beijing's stylish Sanlitun district, allegedly to start a business. There are other reasons why he has uprooted himself — he's followed his ex-wife and young son, for one — but he soon finds out that China isn't the easiest place to succeed. Blissfully untouched by self-awareness, and only fitfully in tune with reality, Gary sallies forth to make money, armed with faith in himself and little to no knowledge of Chinese culture. He soon hooks up with Frank, a trust-fund kid from Australia who offers to mentor Gary in Eastern ways, although Frank's pedagogical method is restricted to yelling at Gary for being a Westerner and not being as "Chinese" as him.

Steve Carrell delivers a subtly fantastic performance in this hilarious comedy. But just because it's silly and funny, doesn't mean that's all that it is. Towards the end of the movie, I found myself watching a film about modern ideas of masculinity. There really is a strong narrative hidden behind uproarious comedy and obnoxious jokes. However, where "The 40-Year-Old Virgin" really demonstrates its strengths is simply in the comedy. It truly is a very funny movie, and a smart, touching film as well. Unlike similar comedies nowadays, it asks more of the film by taking the story a step further than creating laughs.

In my viewer opinion this movie is an epic in the history of comedy cinema. It introduced me to know and get in touch with Judd Apatow work, made me fan of Steve Carell and start following the career of Seth Rogen. This success should be considered a classic! Although an excessively long movie, we laugh throughout the scenes because, over all, the conception, the story, the characters, the places, the improvised dialogs and even the chest depilation of Andy were very well done. So, if you want to end a boring, bad, unfair day, or simply purge the depression daemons, I highly recommend you to watch The 40 Year Old Virgin.

The 40 Year-Old Virgin (2005): Dir: Judd Apatow / Cast: Steve Carell, Catherine Keener, Paul Rudd, Seth Rogen, Romany Malco: Hilarious yet stern comedy about identity. Steve Carell plays a virgin at forty. He is an electronics salesman whose friends try to advance him in his sexuality when they learn of his inexperience. Inventive screenplay plays out with a celebration of marriage. Director Judd Apatow does a superb job at creating a worldview through the eyes of the sexually depressed. Carell is hilarious as a virgin who collects action figures and rides a bicycle to work. The film is at its hilarious best when he is presented with various methods of communicating with women, which mostly leave him frustrated. Catherine Keener plays an Ebay worker who strikes up a friendship with Carell. She is a mother of three and questions his unwillingness to progress sexually. Carell's co-workers include Paul Rudd who is depressed after his last breakup, Seth Rogan, a writer and pot smoker who directs Carell to greater sexual conquests, and Romany Malco as a player whose girlfriend suspects his cheating ways. They all have different approaches and advice to Carell that all leads to frustration and somewhat personal detachment. Strong theme regards the pressure of sexuality and the embarrassment of lacking sexual knowledge or experience. It is one of the funniest and best comedies of the year. Score: 10 / 10

I have been hearing of this movie for many years, but have never gotten around to watching it. Finally, one decade after its release, I have sat down and watched it. Heading in, I didn't expect anything more than a typical comedy that didn't have much to show for besides being funny. To my surprise, I found myself tearing up at the end. Whether this is because I seem to be more emotional during movies, or just because that's how it's supposed to be, the film sends a strong message. That message? Love wins. I don't normally feel the need to give comedies high praise, but I feel this film deserves it. Not only is it funny, but it teaches an important lesson in life. To my delight, Seth Rogen stars in the film and plays one of the many funny characters. I had only expected to see Steve Carell as the one actor I would recognize, but I recognized quite a few. The chemistry between the core group of characters works and flows naturally. It is quite the experience seeing how things unfold for the 40 year old virgin and I promise it will entertain.
