Movie Reviews of 40 Days and 40 Nights
Movie Review: A surprisingly sophiscated sex comedy
Summary: 4 Stars
... The teenage ...-comedy genre has found success in recent years, and I thought 40 Days and 40 Nights would follow the trend. But I was pleasantly surprised to discover the ... jokes were for the most part not gross out funny, but were, in fact, almost sophisticated. ... It's a simple plot: Guy gives up sex for Lent, and deals with the daily temptations, especially when he meets a new girl. Soon everyone knows about the self-denial and starts placing bets when he'll cave-in.
Despite its crude topic, this film becomes a touching romantic comedy, with Josh Hartnett dishing out one of his best performances. The music is well chosen and well timed, and the pacing works great.
This isn't a life-changing film, but it, in my opinion, is the best ...-comedy out there. Worth checking out even if you don't like typical ... humor, you'll be surprised.
Movie Review: BRING ON THE SEQUEL!
Summary: 4 Stars
An enjoyable comedy, 40 Days and 40 Nights, brings to the screen the story of a young man who decides to take an oath of abstinence for Lent following his painful break-up with his girlfriend.
Josh Hartnett, Paulo Costanzo (who is amazing in his respective role and pretty much steals the show), and the rest of the cast carry out their performances very well.
The setting, the plot, the dialogues, the humor, and the music are all good.
40 Days and 40 Nights is probably not a movie you would want to add to your collection, and though quite silly at times, it will surely put you in a good mood and provide for an evening's entertainment.
Movie Review: Very funny
Summary: 4 Stars
I do believe that it would take a strong and determined man to swear off sex (of any kind) for 40 days. In 40 Days and 40 Nights, Matt Sullivan (Josh Hartnett) vows to do just that. This sets the stage for some hilarious scenes. Just remember faking it, Viagra, and pears. There's also some romance that actually manages not to be ordinary and boring. There are big laughs in this movie and I really enjoyed it. I'm glad that Hartnett has moved up from lousy films like Pearl Harbor and Here on Earth to enjoyable movies like Black Hawk Down and this one.Movie Review: Good Movie
Summary: 4 Stars
This movie is definitely worth a watch. The premise and the execution can be corny at times, but the lessons that get through are very interesting and heartfelt. Also, the realism of the movie makes sure that this isn't just a hilarious romp through the idea of sex withdrawal, but actually deals with relationships and problems therein. Overall, the movie definitely hits the intended mark, as long as you can stomach all of the innuendo and sexuality in the piece.Movie Review: All you need to know is...Shannyn Sossamon!
Summary: 4 Stars
OK, so this movie isn't quite Oscar worthy, but it has one major bonus that makes it worth watching...and watching...and watching...
Shannyn Sossamon is a stone cold fox.
And yeah, although some parts are lame (the premise, for example) parts are funny, and the acting is pretty good. Also, Maggie Gyllenhaal, who was a hottie in 'Stranger Than Fiction,' makes a cameo.
And, did I mention Shannyn Sossamon is in it? Yowza.
