Official Synopsis:
"In the comedy American Reunion, all the American Pie characters we met a little more than a decade ago are returning 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. It was summer 1999 when four small-town Michigan boys began a quest to lose their virginity. In the years that have passed, Jim and Michelle married while Kevin and Vicky said goodbye. Oz and Heather grew apart, but Finch still longs for Stifler’s mom. Now these lifelong friends have come home as adults to reminisce about—and get inspired by—the hormonal teens who launched a comedy legend".
This is happening. And… I think this is one of the movies I’m most looking forward to. There is a video that was released recently [HERE] and I watched it a few times in a row while reflecting nostalgically on the original trilogy. I suggest you do the same! Before the announcement of the new film I wasn’t expecting to see a new installment and didn’t really think I wanted one but I think that this has the possibility of being great. Many of the actors in the original film went on to middling careers but several have continued to work steadily over the past decade (Alyson Hannigan, Sean William Scott). This movie offers the possibility of redemption for the franchise that started off as a very fun series of movies but dipped and finally sunk into a pit of straight to DVD despair. It can also—I really hope—help turn around some diminishing careers (Tara Reid…). I don’t want to get my hopes set too high but it might be too late for that.
