The 'American Pie' gang reunites for the wedding of Jim (Jason Biggs) and Michelle (Alyson Hannigan), who must rush to plan the special day so that Jim?s ailing grandmother can attend. Stifler (Seann William Scott) helps out by organizing a bachelor party that goes comically awry.


STEVEN SNYDER'S REVIEW

The third sequel to 1999’s “American Pie,” “Wedding” takes the original cast of high school buffoons and graduates them to post-college, pre-marital buffoons. Jim (Jason Biggs) is marrying Michelle (Alyson Hannigan), the band camp expert from the first two films. And in between dress shopping, bachelor parties and the ceremony itself, the same band of mischievous youths finds themselves in one ridiculous situation after another. There are those that work, like the vulgar and rude Stifler (Seann William Scott) pretending to be refined to win over a bridesmaid. But there are also those that fail miserably, like when Stifler must inevitably ingest dog droppings the day before the wedding. The “Pie” trilogy has always been filled with potty humor, but it also cares about its characters and, at its core, is a series about friendship and, in Jim, a good guy trying to do the right thing. “Wedding” makes its missteps, but it is distinctly different from the other crass, offensive and mean-spirited comedies of this year.
