American pie presenta el libro del amor

this movie did not bring up to American pie standards the story line should have been looked at more carefully the actors for me should not have played the part, stifler is not a stifler if they want to make a new American pie again they need to bring up their A game like kicking off the actors and going back to Noah Levenstine's time when he was young because all the movies have pretty much said that he was a god. I watched the movie and after looking at stifler for the first time i knew this movie is the worst American pie, the story line had so much potential but they messed it up. This what happens now with movies now a days :(

Hmmmmm.....it finally happened. The "American Pie" franchise got beaten to death, succumbing to it's inevitable demise with this tired, bored, stupified pathetic excuse for a film "The Book of Love".

Now before I go any further, I have to express that I am indeed an "American Pie" fan and enjoy all the films so far even the straight to DVD released ones of the past few years.

So naturally when I heard of the 7th film's release I was eager to sit back, relax and enjoy some more mindless potty humour and enjoy a few laughs....sadly, there were only a FEW laughs to be had as in I believe there were 2 scenes I found funny. I won't ruin those scenes for anyone who still feels the need to watch this film but I'll just say they involved a women's underwear department store and the other some old ladies false teeth!

The rest of the film relies on tired old jokes from the previous six films which by now aren't funny and are slightly altered to appear fresh and original but just end up falling flat and leave the viewer wondering if they were supposed to laugh or not.

The acting in this film is absolutely atrocious but no surprises there as the only relevant actors in the film were Rosanna Arquette and Eugene Levy who stole every scene he was in. Too bad his scene's were so short that his role was more like a cameo role which is a major shame but I guess this film was done on no budget and what little money they did have was used to pay Mr Levy for the one day of shooting he did for this film.

The characters this time round just weren't memorable and although I just watched the film lat night...I'm struggling to remember any one character's name!

The new "Stifler" was average too and without a string Stifler....what can you expect to get out of a so called "American Pie" film?

The film tries desperately to avoid boredom and throws in many pointless cameos from Hollywood Caleb's such as Bret Michals which just aren't funny!

I think I'll skip adding this one to my collection!

I'm nearly done complaining but before I wrap up....I would like to mention that it's a real shame this film is the one released 10 years after the original. If I was a rich Hollywood movie director/ writer...I would do a film about the original group getting together ten years later to celebrate their High School reunion! Think about how funny that film could be! See how all the characters turned out ten years after high school and what hilarious scenes could unfold if they all end up really drunk at their reunion? Will any old flames be re-ignited? Will Stifler still be an immature horn-bag? Will anyone shag a pie??? And the movie could be called; "American Pie: High School Reunion".

Now that sounds like an "American Pie" film that people would want to see!!!!

Please stop the straight to DVD releases!!!!

Q: How many scenes with bare tits did we have on the number 6 of the American Pie squeeze-out? A: ehrm, five, mister money-making producer. Then make it seven in this thing! And make up something that can justify that we call it American pie!

And so it were. A truckload of breasts (not bad for a teen movie, I must admit. And I'm glad to see how they parted from the apparent"silicone only"-track from the earlier movies). And some vague connection to the infamous "Book of Love" and Jim's farther, the untireable Eugene Levy.

But what a weak film. Not worthy of the name, I must say. The laughs are all of the over-the-top style, which is very different from the earlier films, which were much more embarrassment-based, thus creating laughs alongside with building sympathy for the main characters. This is completely lost, and makes for 1 ½ hours + with seldom laughs and characters you don't care about.

Even spiked with a load of boobs, it's a cocktail not worth drinking.

OK so I decided to watch this movie when i received it on DVD a few nights ago and I thought it was pretty decent. Its no means like the original American pie movies (first 3 movies) but its still pretty good. In my opinion, its better than the last 3 spin-offs (those were a joke). Book of love had interesting characters and they weren't really annoying and weird. It also had a few funny scenes, like the opening scene where the main characters does pleasure with a peanut butter sandwich, and a scene with "monique" lol. I had some low expectations about this movie because I've heard some good reviews and some bad ones but I was expecting it to be poor, but I was surprised, it was pretty good. It isn't on the level of the original American pie movies but that doesn't mean its garbage. Although there wee a few weird and dumb scenes. Overall, i liked the movie and it was a thrill watching it.

As a rewatch 04.03.20' and over 10 years since the original viewing. Opinions have slightly changed, as this film is quite poor, really isn't that funny and at many times comes across as forced. The characters really aren't that interesting or memorable, although the lead character of Rob is likeable, he does come off as rather weak minded. The film is watchable and as stated in the original comment, there are some decent scenes as this entry does appear to have more heart in comparison to the other spinoffs. But overall it isn't that great. Rating changed from a 7 to 5. As an updated watch 03 05 24, opinions remain relatively same. This film has less raunchy and a more romance vibe compared to the previous 3 straight yo video entries. It is tamer and less skin shown compared to Naked Mile and Beta House but a more concise story.

At first I thought it couldn't be much worse than the last one, but guess what! It was an even bigger waste of time. It's not the typical low-quality comedy that will at least make you laugh a bit and you will forget all about it as soon as it's over. It's more like a parody of the worst clichés ever. Only problem is it's not supposed to be a parody (or if it is they just didn't make it clear). It's something like the American Pie Paradox: the first 3 films set a really high standard (funny, original to an extend, well shaped action) and the ones that followed were more like a new low in the history of comedy. What surprised me was the fact that it was not even as bad as Naked Mile. At least there were a couple of funny lines and 3 or 4 funny scenes on that one. But this one? You can just leave the room for let's say 15' , come back and realize that you didn't miss anything at all. Total waste of time.
