The characters we met a little more than a decade ago return to East Great Falls for their high school reunion. In one long-overdue weekend, they will discover what has changed, who hasn’t, and that time and distance can’t break the bonds of friendship.

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Although I hate the lowbrow comedy genre ever since its inception in the late 1990s with the likes of THERE'S SOMETHING ABOUT MARY and THE SPY WHO SHAGGED ME, for some reason I consider myself a fan of the American PIE franchise. This is the fourth in the series which takes the expected route of catching up with the characters as they deal with adulthood.The story is surprisingly sweet and sentimental if you take out all of the puerile humour. Crucially, for fans of the series, the producers have managed to pretty much reunite the entire cast, including Chris Klein, who was missing from the last instalment as I recall. So watching these characters mingling again after all these years is a great deal of fun, and the camaraderie and humour that flows between them is pretty decent.Yes, there are some obnoxious jokes here, and situations that scream facile; typically those involving Stifler. Nonetheless, Seann William Scott is undeniably charming in this part, and I notice that his character has deliberately softened a little, less jarring, more humane this time. The same goes with the others and I think that's why I like this series so much: despite the gross-outs, these films are all about warmth and friendship. American REUNION is a lot of fun.

The first American Pie was Jason Biggs' and Chris Klein's movie, the 2nd one was all 4 of theirs with Scott as Stifler starting to take command, the 3rd one was Stifler's movie, and this 4th one started looking like it was going to be Stifler's movie again but then it became all 4 of the characters movie once again, and that was a pleasant surprise. You start caring for all the characters and have great laughs with all the characters which made for a much funnier movie.American Wedding is still my favorite but this American Reunion is a close 2nd. Plus this one includes Eugene Levy into the thick of things even more which makes it even more hilarious. That ending is laugh out loud to die for. So funny.Overall, the situations the character's are in is what makes them funny. The only three that really ever have a character that you really like and care for are Stifler, Eugene Levy, and Chris Klein in some ways. They're the only ones that really have developed some great characterization to where you like who they are.Biggs' character Jim is funny because of the situations he always gets himself into. But as a person, Jim is kind of boring really. And so are the rest of them. But nonetheless, American Reunion will give you a much needed laugh, and it's even funnier if you watch it with someone who likes the same kind of movies you do. A must see!

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.

This 4th theatrical 'Pie' film (ignore the 4 direct to DVD releases) is actually a very enjoyable reunion with the original characters. 13 years have gone by and it's entertaining to see how they and their lives have changed, and as a viewer it's also a bit of a nostalgic look back to times passed. The original Pie movie dated from a time when there where no cell phones and the internet was a newer technology. The makers clevery weave in all the guys and girls from the original films and the story is as well written as it could be. If you liked American Pie then I certainly would recommend this film. The 6,8 IMDb score for once is justified, but maybe not for 'Pie' haters or people who haven't at least seen (and remember) the first one.
