Premise
A 40 year old virgin tries to get laid.
Who should watch
Steve Carrell fans. Those want to see an intelligent sex comedy.
Thoughts
The best of all sex comedies, because it was not about sex, but the comedy of sex. Most men will not admit it, but there were tons of truths about guys' fears, insecurities and lack of sex. On top of the excellent screenplay, the actors were funny and likeable, especially Steve Carrell.
The only flaw was the pacing. When you linger in comedy, you run the risk of overkill.
What I would change
Reduce each scene length by 10%.
