Advantages: A really good beginning to the franchise Disadvantages: Not for all
...- 8 years ago now. American Pie kick started my teen years and was almost a label of what I would hoping to be doing come my prom that would arrive 6 years after I saw this film. Getting laid. Can I say that? Well one things for sure the characters in this film don't speak about much other. For those not familiar with American Pie the gang is lead by Jim (Jason Biggs) although I use the term gang really loosely, as these are not the coolest kids ... ...is one of the reasons American Pie was so successful back in the day at bringing a whole new generation to teen movies. Whilst I hope in real life things wouldn't be so drastic between a father and a son, I know there are the awkward moments when your father sits you down for THAT talk. Oz, a member of the schools American football team, comes stereotypically as the most likely to lose his virginity before prom and that is why he feels he has so ...

Advantages: A solid film backed by a solid disc. Enjoy! Disadvantages: None of note really
...films in the same vein, American Pie is a classy movie. It refuses to constantly ridicule the female characters, and in doing so provides a refreshing angle to an oft attempted theme. Try as they might, our four heroes simply cannot seem to lose their virginity, or can they?
The picture quality is superb, a 1.85:1 anamorphic transfer which handles everything that the film can throw at it with ease.
The soundtrack is also a winner. OK so no explosions, ... ...changed when compared to our American friends. A feature on making the movie, quotes, music videos, bios, trailers and even some dvd-rom material is housed on the disc.
Definitely worth watching, for the movie and the extras combined. For around £12 this should really be part of anyones' collection, and represents excellent value. ...

...guess I will go on. American pie may only be for the teens and people under 30 but it is a classic of our time. A wonderful young cast including Mena Suvari and Alyson Hannigan this film will make you laugh from the start until the end. The best line is when Jason Biggs is talking to Alyson Hannigan on the sofa at the end of prom party party. I won't say what it is but you will want to see it over and over again and probably the film as well. It ...

The movie's slow start lulls you into the thought that it will never pick up, never achieve the acclaim the critics lauded upon it. From about the middle of the movie onward the pace is furious and extremely funny. It is the story of a boy growing up, of the relationship between him and his friends and classmates, and essentially his quest to lose his virginity. The dialogue is witty and the acting good. The soundtrack is also cool. This is a movie ...

Advantages: Funny, well made and well acted Disadvantages: parents may disapprove, grandparents certainly will
American Pie: The story of a group of adolescents trying to get laid for the first time. A very funny film loaded with innuendo and downright blatant sex jokes, probably be more appreciated by males than females simply because of the fact that we have been there. I am sure not everybody has the same comic sexual mishaps that are rife throughout the movie but all of us men have felt the same as these poor lads.
Don't be put off this film by the subject ... ...people scarlet with embarrassment, it's just good fun.
Parents, well they may approve but on the other hand may ground you for a month, but let's facer it, would you watch it with your mother anyway.
If you liked the films from the 80's such as Lemon Popsicle, Porkies and the like then watch this it is much better made and acted. ...

...Directed by Adam Herz
American Pie is a U.S. teen sex comedy, in the vein of all those 1980's U.S. teen sex comedies which always seemed to star Bill Murray and Harold Ramis. The former Ghostbusters are getting a little bit old to pass themselves off as teens though, so instead we're treated here to a younger, more beautiful ensemble cast.
After the latest party thrown by rich jock Stifler (Sean William Scott) results in a group of friends - clumsy ... ...with a breathtaking impertinance as American Pie pulls out all the stops, from broadcasting Shannon Elizabeth's exchange student over the internet to the already-legendary bonking of the apple pie. The film is full of surprisingly good performances, especially for a movie of this genre. You'll be defied not to squirm at the situations Jim constantly manages to get himself in, and you really feel for the poor bugger. Klein further perfects the soft-spoken ...

Advantages: Funny, good acting, brilliant story Disadvantages: nothing I can think of
Make a movie about people going into college and wanting to get laided they were told. The result a surprisingly funny movie about the in and outs of sex. My favourite character Jim played by Jason Biggs, he is at the start of the movie setting the scene, he has a sock and doing a quick wrist action. The laughs come at the start when he is caught off both his mum and dad. His dad later settles in to his sex crazed son and offers him a collection ... ...on to talk about female parts much to Jim's embarassment. The funniest part in the movie is when Jim is caught off his father humping a apple pie after his friends told him having a girlfriend is like an apple pie, so as Jim is intrigued and proceeds to find out what an apple pie feels like. I got talk about the funny parts from this movie forever so I will go and get one ( an apple pie hmmmmm). ...

...ordered this movie otherwise.
American Pie is a comedy about four boys who want to lose their virginity before they go to college. They set their sites on the prom as being the ideal time and location for their attempt.
One boy passes rumors about the size of his manhood to attempt to get attention. One boy has some embarresing moments with his father and mother (including the now famous Apple Pie scene) and also becomes a laughing stock after ... ...the whole community on a web cam. One boy, a typical Lacrosse playing boy, tries the sensitive way. Another, with a steady girlfriend tries to please her first.
The movie does have a few funny moments but generally the level of humour seems to be aimed more at boy teenagers. The movie doesn't try to be sexist but as it really is a movie about the male perspective it is slightly degrading to women; although it perhaps does show the general attitude ...

...is about a group of American teenage adolescence boys, to whom make an agreement that they have to have sex (for the first time) before the end of term.
The extremely funny and new Jason Briggs, who is your average very horny but inexperienced high school student plays the lead role, and the story revolves around his pursuit for sexual pleasure.
I know there has been lots of similar films in the past i.e. Porky’s et al, but I think this one ... ...hilarious, my favourite scenes where, the scene where after asking one of his friends what “first base felt like” (first base is there way of explaining touching a girl, you know where), he is told it feels like warm apple pie, well anyway later on that day he goes home, and to his surprise see’s a newly cooked Apple Pie on the kitchen table, well anyway after inspecting it with his fingers he decides to take it further, at this ...

American pie is an hilarious film about the rituals of male teenagers, i.e. trying to lose their vaginally before the end of the school year. This film will have you in stitches right from the word go as it is hilariously funny and one of the best comedies I have ever seen.

Sticking your pecker in a pie! This is surely not something that we want to subject are small children too. It may encourage similar trends where by they may scoop our the insides of a cucumber and stick their penis in it.

The fact of the matter is that it is OK for a fifteen year old to stick it in a pie but ...
