American Reunion is a sad epitaph to a once promising and vibrant series. The story follows the class reunion of Jim, Michelle, Stifler, and the rest of the gang as they catch up and take a trip down memory lane. Unfortunately, not much works in this film. The raunchy comedy is poorly done and comes off as tired and desperate. And the character stories couldn’t be less interesting. In fact, a lot of the character development from the previous films is undermined and rewritten. But worst of all, there’s no sincerity or heart to story, and it has nothing to say. The affection and goodwill that the series built is betrayed by American Reunion, leaving a crass and humorless film that just goes through the motions.
