100 Words Or Less: The 40-Year-Old Virgin

Despite playing the memorable Brick Tamland in Anchorman, this was really Steve Carell’s breakout role, and deservedly so. The 40-Year-Old Virgin also ushered in the brand of comedy that has became all too familiar nowadays: raunchy, hard-R comedies, mostly about a bunch of middle-aged immature guys. But do you want to know the difference between this and, say, The Hangover? A movie like The 40-Year-Old Virgin is full of heart and characters that are not only believable, but ones you want to see succeed rather than just give you a few laughs over the course of a couple hours.
