The gratuitous pop punk pops up every 2 minutes to keep the bros awake when the other bros ain't shouting dose God Damn Funny jokes about getting laid w BABES.
There were some disgusting jokes, but overall it was a nice, funny movie (well, it's not intelligent humor, but that's not what anyone expected from American Pie anyway).
Everyone returns for American PIe 2, taking place the summer after the characters' first year of college. They're still sex-starved, but simply popping their cherries has transitioned to experimentation, whether that's exploring (pretty tame) kink, or just getting technically better. So there's less of a thruline without the shared goal, and we're really just visiting with old friends. It's no Big Chill, but if you have any affection for the characters, it works. What doesn't is that its producers thought we needed more Stiffler. We did not. He's much too obnoxious to move from a supporting player to the front of the gang, no matter how often he's humiliated for his horndog schemes. Especially since a lot of that humiliation involves extended gay panic gags (pun not intended) and contrived slapstick situations. At least we get more Alyson Hannigan whose performance in the first film DOES support an expanded role here, and though a comedy character, she has more humanity than most of the cast. American Pie 2 is dumber than the original, but no less a time capsule for the summer of 2001 in terms of soundtrack and sexual politics around campus. As for the apple pie, blink and you'll miss it.
Watched American Pie 2. It was WAY better then the first. Yes it had plenty of disgusting jokes but it also had plenty of HILARIOUS moments. It was actually pretty heartfelt for a movie about a bunch of guys who want to have a good summer full of alcohol and sex. By the way, Jason Biggs seriously looks like adam sandler lol. But yeah, it's a good fun movie :)
