Hey folks, Harry here... Somehow I find that it is 5 in the morning Wednesday and I don't seem to remember Thursday... I seem to have a fuzzy memory of shutting my eyes yesterday afternoon... and, well missed BRUCE ALMIGHTY and now I'm updating. Well, I don't know about you, but I'm about as thrilled about the concept of a third AMERICAN PIE flick as you would about getting a tooth pulled. I suppose it needs to come out, if only to stop the pain. Here's Trent, beware of spoilers....

hi harry. trent reporting in from san diego tonight with what I hope is a better representation of the people in our city than last night’s incomprehensible reviewer. funny thing is I was at that screening as well (the hostess lady stated the film’s name was “Rundown”), thought of writing you but after wasting 2 hours of my life that I’ll never get back, thought against it. i guess there is at least 6 degrees of separation in life because tonight I got to see “American Wedding,” the third (and hopefully last) film of the American Pie series. seann william scott last night and seann william scott tonight. And to top it off, I turn on MTV when I got home in time to see the new ads their running for the movie awards, co-hosted by none other than seann william scott. anybody seen rod serling standing around?

“American Wedding” has all the original cast back, except tara reid, chris klein, mena suvari and natasha lyonne. And the funny thing is, they’re not even mentioned except for the guys wishing oz could be at the wedding. that was a little weird. this one has Jim and Michelle getting married and as with the 2 others, opens up to a very funny proposal by Jim to Michelle. The scene takes place at a posh restaurant where we come to find out Jim is about to pop the question. One uncomfortable thing leads to another and we find Michelle under the table servicing Jim when all of a sudden, yep, Jim’s dad walks up to the table to deliver the forgotten engagement ring. Funny conversation ensues and the scene ends with Jim proposing to Michelle in front of everybody in the place, pants down to his knees and hard-on busting out of his boxers. Raise title, up music. American Wedding.

in a nutshell, we follow the gang as jim and michelle get ready for their wedding as only the writer of the first two can tell it. Jim fumbles many things during the film and everybody comes through to help him out. Stifler causes havoc, but ends up redeeming himself somehow. Throw in some air-born pubic hair, over-excited dogs, a chocolate syrup-covered Finch and a ducktaped and gagged Kevin and you have yourself the same formula all the others do: seeing how far we can push the surprise gross gags and scenes, but it all coming down to the important things in life like friendship. and like all the others, stifler steals it. The funniest scenes of the film are him and even though he was a bit over the top in most of them, I found myself laughing out loud like I did in the other two. Some of those scenes include Stifler dancing at a gay bar, Stifler wearing a preppy Izod shirt and sweater tied around his neck and Stifler eating, well, I’ll save that for you to experience. Jim’s dad is also back with his unneeded advice such as (when explaining keeping the passion alive in marriage), “You don’t have to be kinky to keep the romance alive. She doesn’t have to be the dog and you the hydrant in the bedroom.” Finch is here too, competing with Stifler for Michelle’s younger and “prudent” sister, but not forgetting his first love, Stifler’s mom. Oh and by the way, I almost forgot; Nikki Ziering is in this one. Yea, that nikki and her 2 “friends.” Stifler throws a bachelor party and she shows up as the dominatrix cop. NICE. Gratuitous American Pie boobage.

You know what? Not to steal one of Jack Daniel’s quotes from last night’s review, but “American Wedding” is dumb fun. Light-hearted and well-written. We’ve seen these characters grow, shared embarrassing things in common and walked away with a smile on our faces. This one is no different. But I do hope this is it. If it is, it’s a good way to go out. And in no better way than Stifler making out with Jim’s grandma on the dance floor…  

Trent out.
