The producers of the American Pie movies pushed their luck with a third slice of their lucrative raunchy comedy franchise, and American Wedding cooked up surprisingly well. It's the sourest serving of Pie, with half of the original cast missing, and there's something undeniably desperate about comedic highlights (involving dog poop, a lusty old lady, two strippers to offset the absence of Shannon Elizabeth, and the ill-advised use of a trimming razor) that arise more from obligation than inspiration, on the assumption that another penile mishap is guaranteed to please. And yet, that's just what this movie does for devoted Pie-munchers: It gives 'em what they want, especially when the notorious Stifler (Seann William Scott) nearly ruins the frantic nuptials of Jim (Jason Biggs) and his band-camping sweetheart Michelle (Alyson Hannigan). Eugene Levy and Eddie Kaye Thomas also return for some reliable comic relief, but the one who's laughing most is three-time Pie writer Adam Herz--laughing loudly and often, all the way to the bank. --Jeff Shannon

 Brides, Grooms, and Pie! March 24, 2009

With the third installment to the Pie trilogy, Jim and Michelle are tying the knot. So to help celebrate the upcoming event, they've invited out their family and friends. Yep... even Jim's friends. Though the movie is about Jim and Michelle, it also lets Stifler and Finch shine a tad more. When Michelle's sister comes into town, the boys are immediately interested in her. Stifler though believes he has to be someone he's not to impress her, so he tries to act more polite and sophisticated. Finch on the other hand sees through his ruse and instead of acting like himself, becomes a lot more like the Stifler we have come to know (and love?).
Eh... when I saw this in the theater, I remember laughing a good amount. Now though, I really didn't think it was that funny. There were some scenes that were just horrible and not funny at all. For example, Stifler and Jim accidently smash a `congratulations' cake onto each others pants, which then has 2 dogs licking their crotch areas, Stifler laughing, Jim trying to pull them off... and then surprise, the parents of everyone sees it. I had to swallow sadness after seeing that. Though there are plenty of good scenes to make up for it like the chocolate truffle scene. I don't know though, this one just didn't even come close to the first 2.
In the end, I would just give it a rent. Unless you are like me and like to be a completionist or like to laugh with American Pie even during its bad scenes. I own it!
P.S. - I literally gagged out loud like 5 times during the chocolate truffle scene.
Not as great as the first two November 18, 2008

I was a huge fan of the first and second American Pie. Those was hilarious. This just seemed to be stretching it too far. It makes sense to end the series on this movie because it completes the romantic story line but I just did not find it all that funny. Its worth watching once or twice but not worth the purchase. If you are a fan of American Pie I suggest renting this movie instead of buying it.
 Gotta Have Your Third Slice September 23, 2008
Dustin Emerson (Lancaster, KY)
I loved the other two films, read bad reviews, and put off seeing this one for a while. Just shows you can't trust critics. I think this film had the most laugh-out-loud funny moments of the series (I don't see many films where people keep going for minutes, there are two scenes which involve dogs...well, you just have to see the film). The characters, for the most part, are rounded out beautifully (a few aren't given enough to do). Sean William Scott's "Stifler" will go down in movie history. Kudos also to Biggs, Hannigan, Thomas, and Levy, who add subtle shades to characters we've come to know. The biggest surprise for me is that this wasn't a sloppy sequel (um, unless you mean messiness, like the scene where...see the movie). The opening scene in the restaurant, to me, was the funniest moment of the whole series.

this ap movie was a little better than #2, but not as good as one. it was okay. not bad.
And then there was a wedding. November 5, 2007
ADRIENNE MILLER (TENNESSEE)
American Wedding is the conclusion of the American Pie franchise. Of course direct to video American Pie released have followed but American Wedding symbolizes the end of this great trilogy. There are some unexpected and foul moments in American Wedding, the scene in the beginning is probably the most funniest but the middle lacks creativity. The second one is the best, the first one is ok, so I say American Wedding falls in between the other two. A sweet film that knows how to mix raunchy humor and a fairytale ending. Enjoy!
