American Pie präsentiert: Nackte Tatsachen

The title says it all. I need to really screw my brain to fill the required 10 lines. The actors are completely unknown, the script is not that complex and it's rather bad. The mandatory opposition to the "team cool" is a bunch of evil midgets that somehow are better at American football and getting girls.

Storyline: virgin couple in high school are forced by peer pressure to go have sex with other people. It doesn't work and they get finally reunited. In the meantime a lot of teenage party and a bunch of people running naked for a mile.

Bottom line: uninteresting, badly played, nice girls.

Before I saw this movie I expected to see the story about another popular adolescent who is the leader of the group and is admired by everyone... but it was more than what I thought. It's about a boy like you or your best friend or neighbor: Erik Stifler.

Erik is forced by his friends to do what all Stifler's men do: being a winner and getting laid. His girlfriend acts like a total bi*ch and refuses to have sex with him so then she gives him a pass to do whatever he wants for a weekend at a "Naked Mile". This movie isn't funny at all, more romance.

The characters are pretty likable but its not as great as the first three American Pie movies. This one simply doesn't have that same spark as the others.

As a rewatch 03/03/24' this film is a serviceable watch but knowing not as good as the original. The comedy isn't that strong but somewhat funnier than Band Camp. The midget frat guys were some of the highlights.

Perhaps I just don't get the movie business, but I never thought they could squeeze three more sequels out of this franchise just by naming random characters Stifler. So this time around it's some guy named Erik Stifler's turn to lose his virginity and get into misadventures, while in the meantime his interchangeable friends just kinda stand around and remind everyone his name is Stifler. They do that like, a lot. I think the name Stifler is said about every six seconds or so, and all these references do is make you wonder why you're not watching the real thing. Occasionally there's some vaguely funny stuff going on, like in the scene where the gang plays football against midgets, but whatever potential this movie had is ruined by the ridiculously awful dialogues. Even The Sherminator had cooler lines than the cool guys in this movie. The trash talk scenes have to be seen to be believed, and even then. And I can laugh at the dumbest, lowest, raunchiest things, but guys using their boners as baseball bats is just really unfunny. And also, why the hell is Jim's Dad still around? Anyway, this movie has a good moment here and there, but for the most part it's dull and very uninspired.

Erik Stifler (John White) is still a virgin since his girlfriend Tracy (Jessy Schram) wants to wait. He can't live up to the legacy of cousins. After a night of misadventure, Tracy gives him a guilt-free pass for the weekend. He and his friends go to party with cousin Dwight Stifler (Steve Talley) at college where he tries the local tradition of the Naked Mile, a naked run across the campus. Tracy gets scared and has second thoughts. And there's the sexy college girl Brandy (Candace Kroslak).

This is an even more raunchy movie than the main franchise. The guys are a bunch of boring actors with no particular charisma. Their biggest sin is their lack of comedic skills. There is a general lack of funny jokes. They try a lot of gross out jokes and naked comedy but the guys can't pull any of it off. I do love the angry midget frat. At least that's a little different and actually funny.

While most of us secretly want more American Pie films in the off chance we get another classic as in the first three, we all know its not going to happen. What we will get is poor films out to make money (epitimised by Levy's cameo appearance) with the 'American Pie' attached to the title.

The general plot is not so bad, though a bit familiar. The movie revolves around Erik Stiffler (the legend that is Steve Stiffler's lame cousin). He's a virgin just about to finish high-school (sound familiar?) and he has a virgin girlfriend who is not ready to have sex (bells should be ringing). I wont go into it anymore but i'll sum it up by saying he gets into a moral dilemma and learns something in the end.There's also a part for the 'little people' but I wont go into that. The first four films restrained from overdoing the nudity, but no such attempts were made here. If you like that sort of thing then your in luck, however personally I feel it cheapens the movie.

Eugene Levy did not do his career any favours by appearing in this. He did not really contribute to the film at all other than remind us all how much worse this movie compared to its predecessors. The overall acting is not so bad either, though the movie hardly demands high standards. None of the characters are funny in any way. Even Eric Stiffler, who may have had some potential, was completely misused in the majority of the movie.

If you're dyeing for more American Pie you are not going to find it here. Is it better than Band camp you ask? I'm not so sure. There are parts that might seem funny to others but personally they bored me to death. I would recommend watching one of the first three instalments of the series instead of watching this dire effort for a movie.
