CinemaClown The second instalment in the American Pie series, American Pie 2 may lack the freshness of its predecessor and its story may be even more uninspired & inferior in content than before but it's still an unabashedly funny, rip-roaringly hilarious & downright amusing ride that has all the crude elements that made the previous one click.Picking up one year after the events that transpired in the first film, American Pie 2 follows Jim, Kevin, Oz, Finch & Stifler as they regroup after their first year of college to spend the summer together at a beach house, where they are looking forward to hosting the greatest summer party ever. But once again, things don't go according to plan.Directed by James B. Rogers, American Pie 2 features a superficial plot with nearly same set of characters that inhabited the previous chapter and while it still doesn't add anything to their respective arcs, that part doesn't become much of an issue. There are a couple of truly memorable moments, the pacing is fine, and the performances from its reprising cast is fairly good.On an overall scale, American Pie 2 was probably crafted just to cash in on the success of the original and its inferiority in nearly every filmmaking department suggests the same but it also retains the raunchy humour, gives the Stifler character an added screen time which is a welcome move, and manages to be an enjoyable, entertaining & satisfying sequel for the most part, if not all the way through.

Taylor Kingston At first, after seeing the original American Pie, and not liking that much, I was a bit reluctant to watch this, but I thought I'd at least give it a chance. And I honestly have to say, this movie is totally better than the original. It has better character development, even though, you know no one is paying attention that sort of thing. It is, to sum it up, a better movie with better lines and a better plot. Being at a beach-house-thing, so much funnier than just the guys at high school. And Stifler still cracks me up. Every single line he says is just pure gold. Overall, I give this movie an 8 out of 10.

Kelan Wood Sequels tend to be weaker than the originals. Even if they are still good movies, they can never recapture the magic that was seen the first time around. That is with a few exceptions. American Pie 2 is one of them. Not only is it funnier than the original but it allows for much more characters development and drama. Kevin's story about not wanting things to change from the way they were is incredibly relatable and and touching, the love story is much sweeter than most of the awful romantic comedies these days and you end up feeling emotionally satisfied by the end. Is it a powerful film? Not at all but the light drama in American Pie 2 really does make it shine. As for the comedy itself, I think what makes it funnier is that we are more familiar with the characters and seeing new things happen to them is very entertaining. Jim's Dad especially has more charisma than he ever has. Overall American Pie 2 is the perfect way to make a gross- out comedy. It almost gets a 10/10 but it's not exactly anything clever or profound so that's why I brought the rating down a notch. If you enjoyed the first than you have to see this movie. If not than it's probably best to stay away.

deatman9 I always loved the first American Pie and this was a very good addition to the series. It stars all the original cast who are back for some partying and fun. This movie will always be one of my favorites it is truly hilarious.This movie is about Jim and his friends who go away for a summer to a beach house. The plan for the summer is to party as much as they can and have as much sex as they can( I know what else is new) funny misadventures happen along the way and it really is a fun ride.This movie is really good it had me laughing all the time. The cast does a great job and the writing is hilarious if you are a fan of the first one give this one a watch or even if you a big fan of comedies.
