Hartnett shows here a breezy command of his charming, likable character.It is a reminder of his talent and versatility.

Hartnett is a surprise; so is the movie, which looks dumb in the ads but, like American Pie, manages to be both raunchy and sweet.

Lehmann manages to keep all this stuff at just the right size and duration way smaller than anything Porkys or American Pie managed to come up with.

Either the romantic or sex comedy might be more tolerable if any of the performances had enough charm to carry it off.

However, one or two fairly good gags aside, the film itself doesnt really deliver in terms of laughs per minute.

There are Viagra jokes, boner jokes, and ersatz Farrelly Dad talks about sex jokes, none of them very funny.

This 40 Days is a cheap movie, false and phony, that thinks its about moving beyond cheapness and phoniness.

Unsentimental, non glamorized, and unclouded by the usual overlay of rose colored nostalgia, this is a raw but rewarding motion picture.
