American Reunion (2012)

In 7 words or less: Chronic masturbators and sex-pests grow up.

What's it all About? It's thirteen years since the original American Pie (in the story and in the realm of the real world) and most of the original cast are back together to go to their high-school reunion. Things have changed however, some of the group have achieved celebrity, parenthood or absolutely nothing. But one thing seems to be universal. They are all disappointed with how things are going. Oh... Jim still can't resist touching himself though.

Best bits? There are lots of laughs here! Just let yourself go! If you resist the sillyness, it will find you! Stand out scenes include; When Heather's new goon boyfriend pops on a DVD of Ostreicher's 'America Can Dance' tape at a party, it's a wild scene. Stifler doing a plop in some extreme jocks beer cooler then destroying their jet-skis. Awards for nail biting awkwardness goes to the scene where Jim is trying to smuggle an unconscious, naked teen back into her parents house. There's a nice bromance between the milf guy and 'the other milf guy'. Very sweet.

"I'm doing a sh*t!"

Did it make you think thoughts? Not many, which is lucky. I put it on to forget, not to think. It brought up strong nostalgic memories of when the Spice Girls were all over the airwaves and everything was right with the world.

"Jim hopes to have the sex life of Ricky Martin"

Would you watch it again? I'd sooner watch this than American Pie Three (not to say that there aren't fun times to be had in that film). I'd say it does the series justice. (by the way, I'm only counting the actual films, not the crappy straight to dvd'ers).

Rating (out of 100%): 77% Good natured, fun time comedy.
