Movie Recommendation of the Week: "American Reunion" (2012)

My movie recommendation of the week:

American Reunion (2012)
Directed by Jon Hurwitz and Hayden Schlossberg
Starring: Jason Biggs, Alyson Hannigan, Seann William Scott, Chris Klein, Mena Suvari, Thomas Ian Nicholas, Eddie Kaye Thomas, Tara Reid and Eugene Levy


From the Official Website for American Reunion: "In the comedy American Reunion, all the American Pie characters we met a little more than a decade ago are returning to East Great Falls for their high-school reunion. In one long over-due weekend, they will discover what has changed, who hasn't and that time and distance can't break the bonds of friendship.

It was summer 1999 when four small-town Michigan boys began a quest to lose their virginity. In the years that have passed, Jim and Michelle married while Kevin and Vicky said goodbye. Oz and Heather grew apart, but Finch still longs for Stifler's mom. Now these lifelong friend have come home as adults to reminisce about - and get inspired by - the hormonal teens who launched a comedy legend."


As a fan of the first three films of the American Pie franchise (forget about those direct to DVD sequels), I was happy to hear that a fourth movie was going to be made. It got even better when it was announced that Universal was able to get all of the original cast members from the first one to sign on for one last slice of pie. American Reunion was downright hilarious and I think others would feel the same way if they, like me, loved the first three, love raunchy humor and enjoy a touch of heart. I'm already looking forward to when it's released on Blu-Ray because I will be adding it to my collection.
