Advantages: Brilliant setpieces, great cast Disadvantages: Sags a little, before Nadia turns up!
I bought this DVD because I'm a huge fan of the movie. It's a suprisingly sophisticated comedy concerning 4 students who want to lose their virginity before they turn 18. But this isn't softporn in the Porkys mould. If anything, it's about friendship and the joy and pain of being young. There is crude humour undeniably, but it's counterbalanced by the realistic relationships. The actual DVD has great extras such as unseen footage and genuinely funny ...

Review of American Pie (DVD)
Advantages: Funny Disadvantages: A bit of a copy off shows such as Friends
"American Pie" is an excellent film. The story is based on a group of high school students whose goal is to find a partner before they finish high school. This leads to some hilarious escapades along the way, with all the boys fighting it out trying to "lose their cherry" first. There are some great scenes both in the high school and out. One of the funniest parts is when one of the students is, shall we say, "getting up to mischief" with an apple ...

Review of American Pie (DVD)
American Pie is the funniest, and rudest film of all-time! You thought seeing the censored version was bad, you MUST see the uncut version!! Watching a gang of immature boys try to lose their virginity at prom night is the funniest thing ever! The guys are gorgeous, the girls are gorgeous, and the way Chris Klien tries to initially lose his vrginity is funny! Not to be seen with parents. They would think I was mad!! Not forgetting the part where ...

...Something About Mary"-esque scenes. The American Pie in question, for example, is absolutely disgusting. But funny all the same! The best line? "This one time, at bandcamp, I shoved a flute up my *****". That gives you a taste of how disgusting, below the belt, and humourous "American Pie" really is. Extra features are also just as funny. Definitely don't see this film with you parents!! ...

Review of American Pie (DVD)
Advantages: good hilarious moments Disadvantages: doesnt quite add up
American Pie is about a group of High School boys who make a pact to lose their virginity before their graduation. And that is basically what the film revolves around as we follow the boys aand their antics along the road of their quest. Some people say this film is crude and offensive. Me? Well I'm not easily offended but there were moments that made me cringe, such as the opening scene which you must have heard about.
There are some really funny ...

Advantages: get the hilarious deleted scenes Disadvantages: not for the faint hearted
Well I haven't laughed so much in ages, My friends and I were in stitches.
I loved the main character Jim because he didn't seam to have much luck with the girls so he turns to an apple pie....I think we all know what happens next.
A little about the features of the dvd itself If you are wondering weather to by the dvd or the uncut video I would recommend the dvd, as you get the deleted scenes, also a running commentary so you can see how the film ...

Review of American Pie (DVD)
Advantages: Funny, sexy, hip and happening film with hilarious outcome Disadvantages: None
I first saw American Pie when by brother came home from watching it at the cinema in hysterics. He raved about it for weeks, and so I couldn't wait to see it myself. I wasn't disappointed.
Firstly, this film isn't really aimed at the adult audience, so teenagers are the best bet to see the film. As a teenager myself, I don't think that adults would enjoy it as much. However, it is hilariously funny and it will possess your thoughts for weeks and ... ...high-school students make a pact to lose their virginity before they graduate and go to college. They are allowed to use any means possible, and when I say any means, i'll put it into perspective - one of them has it with their friend's mum on a snooker table (with shouts of "Oh, Stiffler's mum" being heard on set).
The plot is not bad on originality and the DVD of it is definitely worth buying if you aren't squimish about sex scenes. I loved it ...

...tickle your funny bone , American Pie is still a hysterical movie that takes the desperation of teenage boys to lose their virginity into comic extremes. The jokes are often little better than toilet humour, and I'm sure that many people might find it offensive, but I don't really see a problem. American Pie entertains by making us laugh at ourselves, unlike most action films, which seem to entertain with gratuitous violence. The movie works well ... ...has to go to Eugene Levy. Playing Jim's dad, Levy becomes the bungling and embarrassing father that most people can relate to. American Pie is a great comedy, and although it's probably more suited to a teenage audience, I would recommend it to anyone with an open-minded sense of humour. ...

American Pie is THE funniest film of all time. It is based around four 18 year old boys who sign a pact to lose their virginity before they go off to college. They try all kinds of methods, including using the internet and reading up on sex techniques. However they are still failing as it comes to prom night. This is their last chance! The film stars such people as Jason Biggs, Chris Klein, Mena Suvari (American Beauty. She most certainly is!, Alyson ...

Advantages: Super funny! Disadvantages: Is sex before the marriage necessary?
...Here is the solution: Take American Pie!
This film is one of my favorite movies. It is about a group of male teenagers, who are only a few weeks away from finishing highschool. They are the way of students you really could call "losers". On a party they decided to have sex with a girl before they go to college.
So they have to try different ways.

BACKGROUND
The American pie trilogy (sorry but I'm unwilling to accept any after the first 3 as serious movies), started with this hidden gem. Written by Adam Hertz and directed by the Weitz brothers, the movie was released in 1999 and lead to two very successful sequels (and 3...less successful ones).

Advantages: Funny, excellent gags Disadvantages: not long enough!!
This is a tale of a group of typical red blooded males, who are virgins and desperate. It was hilarious. A memorable comedy, where teenagers are coming to terms with their sexuality. The gags were funny and the actors played their characters with energy and wit. I think I havent come across anyone who doesnt find a part of it thats not funny and i think that most people can relate to it. This is the type of movie that takes people back to reminicising ...
