To ANYONE who thought it was misogynistic (or PARENTS checking it out for their kids)

Rating: 10/10 (19 August 2007)

I can't believe I'm explaining this, but there are some (only about 5%) who actually missed the point, so I thought I'd explain... (SPOILERS)
This movie (like all Rogen/Apatow films) brilliantly uses the stale old "American Pie" format to illustrate the confusion and awkwardness of male teenagers when it comes to sex. Through all the hilariously crass dialog at the beginning, it becomes obvious that guys are taught by society to treat women like objects. This much is true. BUT, the movie is totally about seeing through the hype and having a real relationship.
By the end, Evan's character has his conscience win out and decides that a drunken night with the girl he has liked for years will only make things worse in the long run. In Seth's case, he admits that his quest to get a hot girl drunk enough to "do" him is only a result of his crushing personal insecurity, and not what he ultimately wants to happen. Even "McLovin" is redeemed by not being angry when his moment is interrupted. Instead he learns that even the "super-cool cops" were awkward losers in high school and there will be time later on for sex.
When they walk off together as normal (and virgin) teenage couples, it should be obvious that they chose healthy relationships over their original horny fantasies.
