Summary: Do not watch this movie on a full stomach. You were warned
Review: You cannot accuse "American Wedding" of false advertising on the basis of the cover of the DVD, because the character of Steve Stifler (Seann William Scott) is featured prominently, right in the center. Yes, it is rather amazing how the joke character from the original "American Pie" has taken over the series, and pretty much every memorable moment in this 2003 film belongs to Stifler. But I am a fan of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and so I want to point out to director Jesse Dylan that he has Allyson Hannigan in this movie and why not take advantage of that fact and give her some good scenes? After all, this is the actress who had the two biggest lines in the original "American Pie" (the second of which was ad-libbed). But you can make the same argument for Jason Biggs, Eugene Levy, and most of the cast in this one (and why is Thomas Ian Nicholas even back as Kevin? He has nothing to do in this film).

The title is pretty much the plot of this film, as Jim (Biggs) proposes to Michelle (Hannigan), under the traditionally embarrassing situation we have come to expect from every major moment in Jim's life. Michelle wants the perfect wedding and Jim promises her one, which means learning to dance. Michelle's parents show up when Jim is having another one of his embarrassing situations, which means he has to redeem himself. But the person who most needs redemption is Stifler, who is not invited to the wedding and does not deal well with rejection. However, even the upcoming nuptials take a back seat when Stifler meets Michelle's younger sister Cadence (January Jones) and tries to act like a human being in order to seduce her. Meanwhile, Finch (Eddie Haye Thomas) is impressing Cadence by acting like Stifler and we are have totally jumped through the looking glass, boys and girls.

Consequently, in "American Wedding" Stifler reaches hitherto unsuspected heights as he starts thinking with totally different body parts than is his standard operating procedure. It is totally appropriate, given all the horrible things that have happened to Stifler in the previous films, that in this one he does the worst one yet, to himself, and on purpose. You have to stop and think about it a while to realize that Stifler is having an actuabl moment of nobility (the first of maybe two or three). Otherwise, outside of Samuel L. Jackson when one of his characters goes to town, Steve Stifler is the Picasso of profanity (with credit for the creativity of his profanity being shared between Seann William Scott and writer Adam Herz).

Besides, when I start complaining that "American Wedding" did have enough sweet moments between Jim and Michelle, who is going to agree with me? People watch the "American Pie Trilogy" for the vulgarity, both verbal and visual, so it seems rather ungracious to ask for something more (but they really should not have wasted Allyson Hannigan like this).

Summary: AP3 keeps the laughs alive!
Review: When i went to see this movie i didnt know what to expect because i knew that the cast had drastically changed ( no oz naudia ozzes gf or sherman and alot of the other high schoolers) but i wasnt pleasantly surprised. Although it didnt feel like the first two it still had its gross but funny moments and the awesome bachelor party. great!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: GOOD MOVIE

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: American Stifler
Review: Once Steve Stifler appears on screen, you realize that everyone else in the movie is just there for scenery. Stifler is the movie. Wedding? What wedding? It takes a backseat to Stifler on the onslaught of profanity and nudity. Is that a bad thing? Not necessarily, but the movie really reaches to get it's laughs. Some are genuine, but many are very forced. I wouldn't say that this movie is a failure. It just tries too hard to recapture the glory of the first film.

Summary: american wedding is crap
Review: me and my wife rented american wedding a few days ago.this movie is garbage and a waste of time and money.im glad i did not buy it.american pie 1&2 will always be the best.the bachelor party was only like 10 minutes long and jim was not even there.most of the actors didnt even seem like they wanted to be in this sequel.
another thing was chris klein was not even in this movie and a few of the other actors.i think they should have took more time in making this film.its a bore to the core.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Waste of Fred Willard
Review: What a waste of comedic talent, such as Eugene Levy and Fred Willard. The first two American Pies were hilarious, but this one was a total waste of time.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Go Get her Jimmy!!!! AAAAA+++++++
Review: First off, there are no broadcasts like in the other 2 movies- "Nadia Cam" and "The Big Broadcast". Stifler manages to make friends among the gay community in a dance-off, Jim pops the question among other things in a restaurant, Finch does a personality switch with Stifler, and for the first time, Kevin is absolutely speechless.

My favorite part is the dance-off in the gay bar featuring "She's a Maniac", "Heaven is a Place on Earth", and "Sweet Dreams". It's not Jim making a fool of himself but it is equally entertaining.

I would recommend this to anybody who loves "Animal House" and the other "American Pie" movies.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I just can't get enough Pie!!!
Review: I saw this movie with a bunch of my friends, and it was so hilarious that we all almost fell off our seats! I had to get this movie once it came out, and the characters are just as funny as ever. Everything is just the same, but now, the band geek and the guy who couldn't get a girl, are getting married, and what their friends do, it's a wedding to remember!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The best one by far!
Review: The unrated version on the gift set DVD had me laughing the hardest I can remember in a long time! The 'Boom-Boom' T-Shirt and extra 'Making of...' all 3 movies DVD are like icing on the cake.

Seann William Scott is just perfect in this one!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: well, enough is enough, do not try to cash in again!
Review: what a tragedy, the first american pie was so good, the second pie, already a bit sour, now this third pie, definitely perished and not eatable. i've noticed that lot of times this movie's script seemed lost its track and didn't know where to go next. it's so contrite and so cliched and so tiresome. it's even pathetically bored to the core. this wedding sucks big time. strongly suggest not to waste your time so meaninglessly. i've tried but bailed out in the middle. there's just hollow craps in it, nothing actually funny but might be pathetically funny.
