I actually like the first American Pie. Its humor is stemmed in accurate (if exaggerated) portrayals of awkward high-schoolers, and it doesn't go over-the-top with its raunchiness, unlike the sequels, which devolve into pure slapstick and gross-out humor. I can't think of another movie that nailed the high school demographic so well, at least not in my generation.

Although there are a few moments of immature and excessive childish humour which do hit the mark, underneath it's simply a slightly more daring edition of the usual typically boring teen movie fare. The characters are the usual idiotic bunch, all of whom seem to represent the kinds of high school teens they are scripted to represent quite well. There's nothing else nice to say about it past that however, it's only cheap corny trash for the masses. Underneath the shocks, pretty damn dull.

American Pie is a refreshing slice of good humor in a low budget decade. The combination of Jim, Oz, Finch, and Kevin really remind me of my group of friends in high school. This movie is a rewind back to high school. Even though some of the scenes may be a little exaggerated, American Pie describes what highschool is in a nutshell. With some clever one liners and funny/awkward scenes, it captures the essence of high school in its entirety.

Love it. This movie was fantastic when it came out, and it's still good for a rerun.

American Pie is very funny if you're in the right age group. It's quite raunchy, but it's really not all that offensive. Rally good!

Kids want to get laid, things happen, main character with heart of gold is embarrassed, school jerk/bully gets his comeuppance, moral lesson is learned, blah blah blah. I think I prefer Meatballs 3.

Seeing people do awkward shit amuses me for some reason. This movie really isn't anything good from a critical eye but for pure entertainment it is great. The Shannon Elizabeth masturbation scene blew my mind at 13.

If you've ever had sex, or tried to have sex, you'll get this movie.

Pretty good for what it is. For a teen sex comedy it's pretty funny and the story at least has a little more to it than "guys want to get laid."

The late-90s were a different time. We watched a dude hooked up a hidden camera to watch a girl strip, broadcast it to his friends, and we were cool with it. Also, as someone who was using 56K at the time, there was no way I'd be able to stream video. I could hardly get a song from Napster in under an hour.

Great sound track, some great visual gags... pie anyone? The film that really did define the modern teen slapstick movie.

Anyone that likes these type of frat mentality, sexual humor comedies is an idiot. Shannon Elizabeth tits or not.

Sex? With a pie? Color me amused. I also found the voyeuristic exploits of the "Future Date-Rapist Society" really sleazy and off-putting.

Has held up well. Its mix of the sweet and the raunchy and its attention to the characters make this one of the best sex comedies ('Fast Times at Ridgemont High' is the only one which gets top marks in my book, though).

Forget losing their virginity - what about finding the plot before they graduate, or a laugh. Weak and predictable. Porkies for the ninetees.

I'm not embarrassed to say that the whole series is one of my guilty pleasures. It's just the right amount of nostalgia for me to completely immerse myself and forget the misery that is my life. 16 hours a day mining mercury and asbestos will to that to a man. Still, I have this to keep me alive, and the knowledge that my life's work will forever help mankind and will, in no way, kill anyone.

American Pie has a few funny moments, mostly coming through misunderstandings and awkward talks between father and son. Outside of that? It's predictable, frequently isn't funny, and has bad acting. Sure, it's kind of raunchy, and if you're under the age of 14, it might push some boundaries -- and make you uncomfortable (and laugh) as a result -- but if you could actually see it alone at a cinema, it's not likely going to do much for you.

The best of the Pie films, it hasn't aged well (thanks mostly to a line of a billion imitators) but still has its moments.

Inane and at times ugly comedy is at least compassionate to its characters as they struggle towards adulthood, but the overwritten screenplay, (compounded by a cast that SOCKS. HOME. EVERY. JOKE.) makes it a tough slog; an unexpected attack of explosive diarrhea can never not be funny, but otherwise the movie's obsession with overtly grotesque and exaggerated sexual humour fails to find footing or landing. Inexplicable why Levy's embarrassingly hammy performance has the following it does.

If you loop the part where Shannon Elizabeth touches herself it would be 100...also porn. That would be porn.

Feels removed from real human behaviour then derails into traditional morality-making near the end, kinda. Just not a film written for people. Less enraging than the sequels.
