Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

Claire Dunne One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Taha Avalos The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

gamergcfan This movie feels more of a comedy-drama than a comedy. While I was tempted to stop after 15 or so minutes (I usually stop watching after 15-30 minutes, and sometimes after 30-60 minutes), it managed to become better.The first quarter is funny at times but also boring.The next quarter manages to improve by being less boring when there is drama.The quarter after that manages to not be too boring, but okay when there is drama.The last quarter had good comedy and drama.Some of the jokes do fall flat, though, even if they manage to generally be consistent. In addition, most of the jokes were only mildly amusing.Pros:Consistent jokesDrama is good later onCons:Not really that funnyBoring early onScore: 6

g-bodyl American Reunion which is the long-awaited film featuring all the original characters from the original trilogy has arrived. If anything, this film offers up some sweet moments of nostalgia. While not as funny as the original films, this film still manages some hilarious moments and it's always nice to see these characters back together. Needless to say, this film almost makes me forget those atrocious direct-to-DVD sequels.This film is about how our favorite gang of Jim, Oz, Finch, Kevin, and Stifler grew up or should we say "not grown up." We head to the high school reunion and we see that maybe these guys haven't left high school left.It's nice to see all these characters back together again. I love how Jim gets himself in awkward situations still, how Stifler is still that obnoxious brat, how Finch is so mysterious, how Oz is a big hotshot, and how Kevin is a stay-at-home architect.Overall, this is a pretty funny film that offers up a few big laughs. The first scene was by far the best thing about the film. It's really nice to be taking this trip down memory lane because I hold the first three films dearly to my heart. This passes for a good reunion. I rate this film 8/10.

joshua-halstead All of the reviews I have read, for the most part, state that this is a lot like the first AP movie, and that it is almost as good. Here's the truth: it's not. While the movie delivers some solid laughs, and a little bit of raunchy humor, it is far too focused on nostalgia. The little overtones and references to the original movie are humorous and well- placed, however they clearly tried too hard to make it reminiscent and it just came off as more of a feel-good, drama-comedy. The character development was good, and the plot was solid, but it was too mushy. Another big problem is that in an attempt at being reminiscent of the first, it repeated a lot of the original gags which really just came across as a little lazy. So, the movie is funny, at times hilarious, and at times sad. It's a fun watch, especially if you are an AP fan, but definitely not as strong as AP and AP 2. Beats American Wedding hands down though. It's fun, and a good look back at the movies so many people grew up watching and loving, but nothing all that special.

OrdinaryDay With reboots and re imaginings and re-whatever's being the in thing in Hollywood, I approached this title with trepidation. What made the American Pie series (not including the direct to DVD spin offs) such a class act was the way in which they injected heart and soul into a timeworn tradition of rude smutty comedies. They perfectly balanced dirty humor with cute sentimentality, and they paved the way for a spate of inferior teenage comedies in the early 2000s, such as Road Trip.I was worried that this long awaited 'official' sequel (I don't count the spin offs) would try to be too clever for it's own good, and keep the smuttiness but lose the heart of the AP series.Just a few moments in I was so relieved to discover my fears were unfounded. This movie is an uproarious welcome back for the class of '99, with characters, such as Jim, growing in a realistic fashion. The results are awesome to behold - Jim, no longer the awkward dateless virgin, is now realistically an awkward 30-something adult worried that his marriage is losing the spark. Stifler is still the infamous Stifler, but now he has t worry about more 'adult' fears like holding down his job and being nice to his jerk boss.The movie perfectly complements the heart of the first three movies, with the rude jokes we have all come to expect. And ever major character gets a welcome return and a kind of closure as the movie wraps up their stories nicely.This movie doesn't reinvent the gross out comedy, and it was never meant to. It simply gives us another welcome slice of one of the greatest high school comedy series ever. Welcome back, boys.
