A pie too far


American Pie: The Reunion (2012)

Directed by Jon Hurwitz and Hayden Schlossberg this film stars Jason Biggs, Alyson Hannigan, Chris Klien, Sean William Scott. The gang all return home for a high school reunion and various hijinks.

Returning to see how sex obsessed teenagers have adapted to adult life may not be the worst idea ever but the central characters of the franchise lack the personality to carry this film. A lot of tired ideas are trotted out and most of the plot is a bit week or highly contrived. There are funny moments but rarely enough to make up for the deficiencies in the rest of the film.

2/5
