For those of you who do not know, American Reunion is the 4th official American Pie movie (yes there have been some "spinoffs" about Stiffler's brother, or something?).
This movie nailed home, for me, my true opinions of this franchise. Suuuuucks. I do not like these characters. Not only are they totally unlikeable, but they also stay the same throughout the movie.
I never say this but SPOILER....it should just be understood with these posts....
Here's an example of something completely bizarre to me. Stiffler (who no one should ever like, and is frankly an antagonist more than a protagonist) and others get screwed over by some young douche-bags. So to get revenge, he sneaks into their little outdoor party, takes a dump in their cooler, and then destroys their jetski-boat thingies. I suspect this was supposed to be a cathartic we, protagonists, got "even" moment, but all I could think about was how what those douche-bags kids did, is exactly the type of thing that Stiffler would have done. What's the lesson here? Jerks will screw over jerks? Why don't we all stop being self-involved arrogant jerks instead!! So screw Stiffler.
"Main" guy, boring and mentally cheated on his wife...multiple times.
"Awkward" guy, bombarded by underage babysittie girl and does the exact opposite of what any rational human being would do.
"Jock" guy, boring and mentally cheats and attempts to physically cheat on his girlfriend (also with a girl who has a boyfriend...jerk).
"weirdo" guy (the only one who has ever been interesting), lies about having an interesting life.
Who cares about these people? I feel like there must be tons of people out there who associate themselves with each of these guys...I'm just glad they're not my friends (well, he he, not any more. Jerks.).
If you liked the other three, I'm sure you should see this one. Turns out I didn't...not much of a surprise there.
