American Reunion Reviews
June 14, 2017
One thing that hasn't changed at all in the past decade is the series' trademark mix of raunchy humor and heart-on-sleeve sentiment, and American Reunion is every bit as delightfully disgusting and crass as any of these movies have ever been.

SIt's reassuring to see that Suvari (wooden) and Reid (flat) can still find work that doesn't involve wearing a hairnet and a name tag.

Some things they do better over there. Some things they shouldn't do over here at all.

There are a few gags. But inevitably, the guys wind up sentimentally telling each other they should do this every year. Please no.

The old bittersweet tone is gone, replaced by the sickly sweet and the downright tasteless.

Like most reunions, it intersperses the horror of recognition with effortfully winsome gestures at nostalgia.

Little more than a roll call of worn-out punchlines and situational non sequiturs.

Outside of porn, there has never been a movie with so many shots of grown men eyeing teenage girls' backsides. The result is fitfully amusing but more often just creepy.

It's occasionally entertaining to have these characters back in our lives, but for the most part this fails to party like it's 1999.

Walking out there just didn't seem to be any point to bringing everyone back for this fourth go-around, American Reunion proof that sometimes going home again isn't as good idea as it's purported to be.

A few clever notions on the problem of middle-aged dating are handled by pros Eugene Levy and Jennifer Coolidge. Otherwise, it dips into Meet the Fockers material like Biggs into a baked good.

American Reunion tries to use nudity, sex, and fecal matter to generate laughter, but the jokes are tired and predictable.

Yes, American Reunion is a juvenile outing. They steal jet skis and defecate in beer coolers. They cheat on their girlfriends and lie to their best friends. But what did you expect?

not unlike the event from which it takes its title. Some of it rekindles memories of what worked in the past in a nostalgic, even sweet way. Some of it reminds one what they liked about these people in the first place. Some of it is just sad.

None of it makes much of an impression, although there are a few nice and surprisingly heartfelt moments around the edges.

A strained, relentless quest for gross-out humor and outlandish sexual escapades.

Confirms the perception that only losers attend high-school reunions.

In the end, "American Reunion" even gets away with its sequel-baiting closing line: "Till next time!"

"Reunion" should be the last slice of "Pie," America.

Overall, the level of wit and invention from writer-directors Jon Hurwitz and Hayden Schlossberg is well below their scripts for the three "Harold and Kumar" movies.
