February 10 movie: The 40 Year Old Virgin. Kevin said that I would like this movie, and he was right. It wasn't great, but it was good. Funny, mostly unsentimental, sweet when it needed to be. And it did have moments of hilarity, like the big "Age of Aquarius" musical number, I like Catherine Keener a lot, and I think my favorite secondary character was Jane Lynch as the boss, who seems like a total hardass at first, but turns out to be cool .. maybe a little too cool.
My only criticism is too many jokes based on bodily fluids. Any is too many for my taste, and this one had about a half-dozen (pee and vomit). At least there weren't any jokes about poo. I would have had a hard time recommending the movie if there were.
