Amusing

Rating: Null/10 (4 September 2001)

Another plane movie. "American Pie" was R(A) in Singapore (21 and over to enter). I was 14 when I saw this (I'm 15 now, and I'm sure that required so much Maths skills). With my mom beside me. She was, of course, mortified that I was laughing at some of the scenes, but oh well.

Okay. "American Pie" is a funny movie, no doubt. I think it's rather hilarious, and um, Jason Biggs is funny, but if you ask me to describe the plot, I'm not sure if I can do that. Because 1) I can't remember half the movie and 2) there isn't a plot. "American Pie" is just a comedy with lots of sex. That's all there is to it. It requires no thinking skills, or even any apprehending skills. Perfect in-flight movie, considering the other junk they showed (like oh, "Sweet November"), and perfect cure for boredom. The funniest scene is the Jim (Jason Biggs' character, I'm not sure of his name) and the Pie scene; absolutely had me in fits. And Jim's dad is hilarious as well. Alyson Hanningan is SO irritating. Can she just stop doing the nerd roles, because quite honestly, I can't tell the difference between Alyson in "American Pie" and Alyson in, say, "Dead Man on Campus", or even "Buffy". Besides all of that, I cannot remember anything else.
Definitely one of the better "teen movies" (funny that it was rated R(A), as I don't consider people over 21 "teens"), but not one of the more memorable movies released that year, whatever year it was. Or maybe it's just me.
