American men ARE evolving!!!

Rating: Null/10 (3 February 2003)

I liked this. I put off seeing it for years because i assumed (naughty me) that it would be like Animal House or Porkeys. That is... i assumed it would have nothing but contempt for women. Shows you how much i know.

American Pie is more like Diner than Porkeys or Animals House. As in Diner, the boys in American Pie gotta grow up and go beyond boy friendship to get what their hearts truely desire. Do you remember the story about the Princess and the Glass Mountain? The knight has to figure out how to go up a glass mountain to win the Princess's heart.
Hey.... it's an old story and as valid today as ever it was.
All the actors are charming. Eugene Levy is genuinly touching as a dad who tries to steer his son towards wholesome happiness. I did wonder where mom was....but that's okay... this is a BOY coming of age story and like i say at the top... They are evolving. It actually seems to be okay to like girls. Thumbs up.
Jolly regards
