A 40 year old cherry waiting to be popped!!!

Advantages: None that I can think of
Disadvantages: Far too many to list - check out my review

...?The 40 Year Old Virgin? was written by Judd Apatow and Steve Carell and released back in September 2005. ****Story line**** Andy (Steve Carell), the main character of this film, is a ?geeky? guy with the interests of a typical American teenager. Andy likes nothing more than playing computer games, playing the French horn, reading comics, collecting film/cartoon memorabilia and painting action figures. David (Paul Rudd), Jay (Romany Malco), Cal (Seth Rogan) and Mooj (Gerry Bednob) are four employees of Smart Tech looking to arrange a poker game. Being a person down they reluctantly invite Andy to join them and are surprised when Andy accepts the offer. During the poker game David, Jay and Cal begin discussing previous sexual conquests and are amazed to discover that Andy is still a virgin. The trio are informed that whilst...

Are You Smarter Than a Ten Year Old? Find out on the Nintendo DS

Advantages: Entertaining for a short while
Disadvantages: Badly programmed, low production quality, uninspiring sound and graphics

...This review is for the Nintendo DS game, Are You Smarter Than a Ten Year Old? The game is based on the Sky One television quiz show, presented by Noel Edmonds. The aim of the game is to answer questions in order to get yourself to a prize of 100,000 pounds, and then you can gamble this to win 250,000 pounds. You can gain the help of six different children to help you through the game to win the money. That?s about the limit of the structure of the game, there?s nothing else to do really do in this game. There are three different ways that you can gain help (for those who have never seen the TV show, it?s very similar in principle to Who Wants to Be A Millionaire?, but the questions are from children?s textbooks), which are the peek, copy and save options. In peek, you can look at one of the answers given by a child and then choose...

Review of Are You Smarter Than A Ten Year Old?

This game is definitely not as smart as a 10 year old

Advantages: None.
Disadvantages: Very poor gameplay. Complete lack of depth. Not remotely entertaining.

...romped up to £250,000 imaginary pounds, not having had to use any of my bonuses, and answered the mystery question at the end, then was faced with the game credits. Is that it? I asked myself incredulously, thinking that there must be more to the game than a simple, ten-minute multiple choice series of questions, with about as much suspense or excitement as watching paint dry. I occasionally play the game in the quiz machine in my local pub, where it bears no resemblance to the DS version whatsoever. There, you have a time limit to answer the questions and they can be excruciatingly difficult, which no ten year old would be expect to know, i.e. what is the surface temperature of the planet Mercury when it is facing away from the sun? Obviously this is so you don't walk away with any money - but the producers of the DS version could have...

Review of Are You Smarter Than A Ten Year Old?

How old?!

Advantages: Funny and great acting
Disadvantages: None

...The 40 year old virgin is one of those films that you watch knowing that it will be full of silly humour and mainly aimed at the young male viewer. I sat down to watch this not really knowing if I would really enjoy it that much as it's all been done before really hasn't it? However I was surprised to find myself really enjoying it and have no complaints about watching it again and again! The plot - Andy Stitzer is a 40 year old man who has an OK life. He has an Ok job with friends and has his own nice apartment but there is one thing missing in his life and that is that he's never had sex! Yes at the grand old age of 40 he has never 'done the deed'. When his friends find out about this they want to get him out there on the scene immediately. However Andy has started seeing somebody - Trish, who is a single mother to three children...

The 40 Year Old Virgin

Advantages: Storyline,
Disadvantages: Running Time,

...what will Andy do? The only disadvantages I found while watching this film where the running times, and the over the top sexual humour. The running time is 116 minutes, however this was too long as I believe the story started to drag along, and I became less interested in the film Another disadvantages was the humour, this film includes a lot of sexual humour, some of it I believe became over the top and a bit offensive, The film won 5 awards, after being nominated for 6, this was a great success for the film, one of the awards was for best supporting actress to Catherine Keener, Catherine was a inspiring character throughout the film, as she played the part well. This hilarious film also won the best comedy movie award of the year, (2006) which I believe deserved this award. This film was the best comedy of that year, and for many...

27 year old Glenturret Single Malt Whisky

Advantages: Is there such a thing as a poor whisky?
Disadvantages: Yes, and this is one.

...In 2005, Douglas Laing, bottlers, brought 241 bottles from a single cask of 27 year old Glenturret Single Malt Whisky to the market. Having tried their 10 year old expression on a dozen or two occasions, I was surprised to find this rare offering somewhat of a let down. The colour did not bode well for the taste buds. Despite being a bit more potent than the 10 year old (46.1%) the pale, straw-like colour was so appropriate for this rather dull drink. While the 10 year old has overtones of Turkish delight and Parma violets, the 27 year old, whilst still maintaining the distillery's typical botanical air, was more cabbage and cauliflower, the blandness only being totally averted by the addition of some almond, and a hint of chocolate. Indeed, for a premium expression from a much loved and well respected distillery (despite being...

Review of Glenturret 27 Year Old Scotch Whisky

Bless Him!

Advantages: Funny, good characters, good stroy
Disadvantages: Lots of swearing and sex referneces

...Yay, the joy I had when Hubby picked a film which was not a western! As you can guess from the title of this film it is about a 40 year old man who is still a virgin. Steve Carell plays the role of Andy Stizer who works in the stock room at an electrical store. He lives a nice quiet life in his apartment which is full of boys stuff and old action figures which he says are all collectables. He is surprised one day when his work colleagues invite him to join their game of poker as they are one player short. As with men the conversation at the game soon turns to sex and when Andy makes something up about the strangest woman he has ever had they all soon realise that he is still a virgin. The 3 friends take it upon themselves to help Andy have sex and they set about trying to educate him in the woman department. Will Andy finally get...

The Longer You Wait...

Advantages: Very funny
Disadvantages: Seth Rogen, a bit too long

...Electrical store worker Andy Stitzer (Steve Carrel) is a kind hearted man with an embarrassing secret; he?s a virgin. At 40 years old Andy has been waiting all his life to pop his cherry but unfortunately it?s just never happened and the longer he wait?s the harder it gets? literally! When Andy accidentally lets slip that he?s a virgin to some of his colleagues at a poker game they immediately mock him however they vow to get him laid by any means possible. They take Andy out for drinks and pretty much hand him a woman on a plate however Andy fails to do the deed. Then he meets Trish (Catherine Keener) a good looking middle aged woman with a family, could she be the one that Andy finally loses it to? This is a film that I?ve loved ever since it was released and for me it?s a film that can be watched over and over again. Usually I...

Mine's a Longhorn, what's yours?

Advantages: Delicious
Disadvantages: Expensive but worth it.

...Are you looking for a good Malt Whisky to give as presents (or even to drink yourself) this Christmas? Then let me introduce you to a paticular favourite of mine. Longmorn 15 Year Old Malt Whisky Over the years and after several holidays to Scotland I have sampled a plethora of single malts and have been taught on more than one occasion the "proper respect and appreciation for the nectar." If it wasn't so early as I write this review I would have indulged in a dram or so from my well hidden stash ! THE DISTILLERY There are long roots to the distillery in the area know as Longmorn in Morayshire. A missionary named Maernanaog, or Mo-ernin-og, had brought Christianity to the Picts of Moray during the 7th Century. A church was built just outside of Elgin following his death in 625AD and named...
