Mjeteconer Just perfect...
Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Taylor Kingston I love this movie. It is my second favorite in all of the American Pie movies. My order: 1. American Pie 2 - 2. American Reunion - 3. American Wedding - 4. American PieI really think this is so funny. You finally get to see all of your favorite characters come back, after such a long time away. Jim and Michelle have children, and for some reason, Stifler is driving a school bus. And I'm pretty sure, he got with Finch's mum, after all those times that Finch got with Stifler's mum.Overall, I give this movie a 10 out of 10. I don't think they could have made it any better.
bowmanblue Like many, I loved the first American Pie film. It was daft, silly, immature and totally funny. Its two sequels did their best to stay true to the original and, in my opinion, did a decent job.Now comes the reunion. Set just over ten years after the guys graduated high school. The first thing I have to say is that it is great to see them all together again. They still have the endearing chemistry which made the previous films such a success (and on a side note, they barely seem to have aged a bit - for that I can only hate them). However, for all the nostalgic enjoyment I got from seeing the whole gang together again, I felt this one was the most strained.In short: I didn't laugh as much as any of the previous entries in the franchise. Not saying that it wasn't funny - I laughed more times than with most comedy films. Plus it was hardly an Adam Sadler movie, it just didn't have as many laugh out loud moments as I'm used to with a 'Pie' flick.I didn't feel like I'd wasted my time, but it is nearly two hours and the jokes were starting to come few and far between. Instead, they were replaced with predictable sentiment which, although sweet, just wasn't much of a substitute for gross-out humour.http://thewrongtreemoviereviews.blogspot.co.uk/
Sandcooler "American Reunion" is a very belated sequel, and I always tend to be weary of belated sequels. I mean, you always ask yourself the same question when projects like these come along: do the makers actually think they can add something, or do they just want to squeeze the last drop out of this franchise while there are still a couple of dozen people that remember the original? Obviously cinema is a business, so there's always a bit from column B, but column A definitely seems to outweigh it. Original writer Adam Herz isn't on board anymore, but the new guys treat the source material with a lot of respect and actually seem to get what it was about. It thrives a lot on gross-out and sex-related gags, but that's not ALL there is to it. These are actual characters, there is an actual coherent plot, that's what has always made "American Pie" stick out amongst its numerous copycats (the abysmal "American Pie Presents"-movies are a prime example of doing it wrong). And much like the original, "Reunion" succeeds in a) making us laugh and b) touching a soft spot. Some of this stuff is actually pretty cheesy, but hell, the gang is back together damn it! A bit older, a bit less immature (Stifler has a job for God's sake), but they have still got each other's backs. While the disappointing "Wedding" seemed to close the franchise on kind of a downer, this one is definitely a more worthy conclusion. Way better than anyone could have expected.
SnoopyStyle This is the fourth installment of the American Pie series. The gang is back and that's half the battle. Almost everybody makes a cameo; the MILF guys, Stiffler's mom, Shermanator, and even Nadia. Jim and Michelle are knee deep in childcare, and their love-life is in a rut. Jim's mom has passed, and Jim's dad has trouble dealing with it. Oz is a big time sports TV commentator, and has a flirtatious girlfriend he doesn't trust. Kevin has become the Mrs of his home. Finch is mysterious with wild tall tales. Stifler is stuck in a lousy job living at home making all the effort to recreate his wild high school ways.The gang's chemistry is back. It's great to see all the kids grow up and not grow up. The best part is the film's ability to incorporate all the franchise's history. And Jason Biggs shows the bits, somewhat squished.
