Sex has become so desacralized, it seems hard to believe that anyone, especially an apparently healthy man, has managed to avoid getting some with someone, somewhere, at some point. But such is the case with Andy Stitzer, the title character played by Steve Carell in the charmingly bent comedy "The 40-Year-Old Virgin." A loner geek by circumstance rather than conviction, this accidental virgin works in an electronics store with the usual bunch of genial misfits. The rest of the time, he tends to his solitude in a modest Southern California apartment crammed with boyhood collectibles, many still in their original packaging. Andy puts away these childish things at least temporarily after three of his fellow workers stumble onto his secret, throwing a wrench into his orderly, celibate existence. Quickly scoping out the truth of his situation, the three embark on a rescue mission to deflower (by proxy) this shrinking violet. But the guys are hapless when it comes to women, and their schemes invariably fizzle rather than sizzle, often to sidesplitting effect.
