Advantages: Some very good performances and plenty of laughs Disadvantages: Some of the jokes go a step too far
Andy Sitzer is a nice guy, so nice in fact that his colleagues are convinced there's something wrong with him. But instead of being the serial killer they all feared, they discover he's the most unusual of things; a forty year-old virgin. Once his friends uncover his secret, they set about solving his little "problem" as quickly as possible, hiding away his huge collection of action figures, dressing him up nicely and setting him up with all manner of unsuitable women.
Director Judd Apatow's grounding in television shines through in this movie with his refreshing attitude to character development in comedy, allowing the protagonists to develop at their own rate instead of wading straight in with a bunch of knob gags.

Virginblue is part of Richard Branson?s Virgin enterprise and only operates domestically within Australia. It is a budget airline offering some great deals all around the country and since the cities in Australia are so far apart it is often drastically cheaper than driving or catching public transport as well.
