From My Collection: American Pie 2 Movie Review
I’ll usually be the first one to rail against sequels
that are nothing more than a retread of the first film. These films are cynical
ploys to earn more money using the same formula a second or third time. And of
course audiences tend to fall for it every time. This is especially true in the
comedy genre: take a group of people in a comedic scenario, have them do funny
things, wash, rinse, repeat. Then take the same group and put them in a
slightly different scenario to repeat similar gags. I did not find this to be
the case with American Pie 2.

From My Collection: American Pie Movie Review
Sometimes I really wish I could experience things for the
first time again. There’s nothing quite like seeing a hilarious comedy in a
crowded theater early in its run, especially when you are smack within the age
range of the target audience. I was 21 when American
Pie came out and I saw it three times that summer. Although I’m sure I was
much more likely then to enjoy a gross-out comedy than now, I was by no means a
sheep that followed the masses when it came to movies. I’ve always had more discerning
taste.
