American Pie (1999)

WHY AN APPLE PIE??? EEEEWWW!

Starring: Jason Biggs and Sean William Scott.

O dear God, where do I start and how do I talk about this film? It is soooo funny, yet sooo disgusting and cringe making that I don't know how to explain it. Oh what the hell, here goes.

This very, very funny movie is about a bunch of horny teenagers, 4 lads to be specific, who, after a series of failed dates and attempts at getting girlfriends, or just getting laid make a pact. They agree to basically do whatever it takes to get laid before their high school prom.

These guys consist of Jim (Biggs), a geeky, clumsy, over randy guy who wants that special someone, but finds it hard just talking to women. He has a crazy, yet very understanding father who always seems to walk in on him at the wrong time....scene with the tube sock! Oh dear. This guy is the reason for the title of the film, he gets down and dirty with an apple pie...don't ask! Apparently, that is what second base feels like! He eventually hooks up with Nadia, but uh oh...gets a bit too excited and it's all over before it begins! In the end, he finds a band geek to play with! 'What's my name bitch!' Very funny!

Anyway, then there is Oz. Oz is a Jock. He is a sporty guy who basically knows nothing other than sports. His nickname is Casanova as he is handsome and a chick magnet, yet he has only gone as far as second base (Yes, he is the one who tells Jim what second base feels like so you can blame him for the pie scene!). Oz changes his ways after an embarrassing moment with a college girl, and get this, he joins the choir! But wait, is this where he meets his true love? Hmmmm.

There is Kevin next. Now Kevin has a girlfriend already, but he publicly announces that he is fed up with blow jobs, oops...did he say that in front of his girlfriend? He finds out that he has never made her come and embarks on a mission to make her climax to repay the complement of all her blow jobs, oh yea and to get laid by her!

Last but not least there is Finch, this guy is a walking brain, but he has very snobby and strange habits, like going home from school at lunch time for a number two....yes, a poop. His enemies call him 'Shit Break.' So, he decides to use his brain to win over the ladies, and it does start working until he gets on the wrong side of his nemesis Stifler (Scott). Lets just say that he is forced to use the school toilets for a change!

Steve Stifler, a.k.a the 'Stiffmeister,' not part of the pact, but a major character in the film is a hot head, class clown who is popular with everyone and is famous for his parties. Yet he also has embarrassing moments with the girls, for instance he drinks a suspicious beer and pukes all over a potential lay. His mum, is deemed a M.I.L.F by the guys, and wait a minute, is that Finch getting down and dirty with her on the pool table at Stiflers house? Watch it and see!

Prom comes and goes, do the guys get laid before prom night? It would be a boring film if they didn't, but my god do they have fun along the way to achieving it! A very entertaining film, good soundtrack too! A must see!
