A greatly funny movie covering somewhat of a taboo topic, Andy is a little bit of a nerd but a sucess ful one,hes happy enough until his friends discover that hes 40 years old and has never had sex,his friends see it as there mission in life to interfere and find and a girlfriend which begins a series of hilarious events,eventually Andy finds the girl of his dreams but getting her to go out with him is a whole different story.
This was a nice original idea,obviously considering the topic it may not be for all ages,i did find it funny and now own a copy myself. The cast are funny and play there roles very well with Steve Carell,Paul Rudd and Jayne Lynch all starring. In some places the story is a little shallow but it is definatley worth a watch the sound track is quite good and fits in well with the movie ,overall a good film especially for a girly sleep over
Rated 15 127 minutes long ,avalible on amazon for £1.00

I see you've posted this as a DVD review, but you've not mentioned the DVD features. Are there any extras? If so, what are they and are they any good? If you add to this, or if you change it to be posted as a "Film Only" review, which can be done by accessing "edit review" above the review and changing the drop down menu under the "Which format are you reviewing?" question at the bottom, please let me know and I'll re-rate.
