Reviews
Marketic It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.
Micransix Crappy film
mraculeated The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.
Roy Hart If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.
SnoopyStyle Erik Stifler (John White) is starting college after breaking up with his high school girlfriend. His cousin Dwight Stifler (Steve Talley) is the head of Beta House party fraternity. He has to battle the onslaught of Geek Houses where only the smartest and richest guys are allowed in. More and more of the beautiful girls are gravitating towards the geeks. The regime at the university is turning upside down as Beta House is challenged to the banded Greek Olympia for the house charter against GEK house. Ashley (Meghan Heffern) is the sweet girl who likes Erik.Even for the B-side of the American Pie franchise, this isn't much fun. Everybody is weak acting wise. This is lots of hot chicks with very blend comedy. It's just an excuse for a T&A show. I really miss the midget frat from the 'The Naked Mile' which was the funniest part of that movie. There is too little of them and way too late. There isn't much to see other the countless nameless hot chicks. The sheep grind is probably the only funny thing in the whole movie.
Neil Welch If this is your thing then you will quite enjoy it. It is youth-oriented, rather rude, tasteless, trivial, and very much according the formula established in earlier films (going all the way book to Animal House). It features characters seen in earlier films, and continues the adventures of the unsavoury Stifler clan. Eugene Levy again reprises Jim's Dad aka Noah Levenstein to what, it seems to me, are greatly diminishing returns.It's OK I suppose, but there isn't that much to recommend it. Apart from boobs. Quite a lot of 'em. I find I need a bit more these days, though.
Wesley Franken Well, if you haven't seen it yet and you almost liked ''The naked mile'' then you should watch this one.The thing is, that the first 3 pie's had a story and was original, a numbnut growing up and becoming a man, then came The naked mile that really sucked hard.Some were still inspired by the first 3 and they made Beta House, some Jimbo situations returned to screen and voilà, the result was definitely not the most outrageous slice of pie, but it's in overall quite funny and did it in some ways.Beta house scores in vulgarity, the choices on chicks/females (like Sarah Power and others) and the reasonable funny/awkward situations, there are no real jokes and you still miss the real stiffmeister.conclusion: it could be better but it doesn't suck..
Matt_Layden Stifler, has finished running his naked mile and is now attending Beta House. Crazy stuff happens, people run around naked and nerds are made fun of and this series is dead in the water. The Naked Mile was a crap film, but I found it to be significantly better then Band Camp. It seems they've gone back to what didn't work for them and it shows that they don't care either. You can tell where the target audience is and they nailed it perfectly. Young teenage boys who like to see naked women, crude humour and beer drinking will love Beta House, everyone else can pretty much look away.Star Wars became a massive success that stunned audiences with it's ahead of its time special effects. Lord of the Rings created an entire world of mythical creatures and massive battles that dazzled the eye. The Matrix changed the way action and sci/fi films were made, specifically with the cutting edge special effects. With all the advancement in technology, we eagerly await the next big thing that will have our jaws dropped to the floor. Then comes American Pie: Beta House, which pushes the boundaries of what technology can do. When people have created spaceships, landscapes and creatures using CGI, Beta House decides to use this technology to create semen. Yes, the thing that creates life, the thing you see so many times in pornography films is created and time slows down to show us the white residue shoot across the room onto a teddy bear. Is this funny? Disgusting? Neither? Beta House shows more nudity then The Naked Mile, which is surprising considering the previous installments title. Does the film need it? Of course not, does it ever advance the plot, does it ever? Does it ever get a laugh? Does it ever get young boys aroused? Yes the women are beautiful, but if I am the one who thinks there is too much nudity then you might as well just have made a porno.The female who catches the affections of our main character is pretty and doesn't annoy the viewer, like previous girls have done in the series, but not once did I ever believe this character would ever do what she does. I'm pretty sure every action from the characters in this film are far from realistic. The American Pie series has fallen from a realm of reality into a fantasy world. None of the events in this film would ever happen, if they ever did then I need to attend this school IMMEDIATELY. Is this film suppose to make people feel like they are having a good time? Well it doesn't, we are watching them have a good time, by the end of the film we hate them for all the fun they are having.There is a "Deer Hunter" scene in the film, but to make it "funny" for today's audience they decided to substitute bullets wit horse semen. Are you laughing yet? Instead of shooting themselves with said semen in the head, or face, they place the gun in their mouths. Are you on the floor laughing yet? The first time we are introduced to Stifler's roommate, he's having sex with his girlfriend. Are you cheering at the nudity yet? The film at first seems like it will be about the boys trying to get into the frat house, but then it shifts to them already being in the frat house, but needing to perform certain tasks. Then it shifts to a competition between nerds and the boys. It goes a little "Revenge of the Nerds" on us for a bit and it seems out of place. I honestly do not know what these film is about because it goes all over the place.Most of the comedy seems forced for shock value. Even at the beginning with the Dad showing his son the list of people he has had sex with. The joke is in there somewhere, I think it might be the fact that his wife is not the last name on the list, or it could have been that one of his son's friend's mother was on the list. Either one, it doesn't work.I guess if you haven't guessed it yet, this film is not funny. Nor does it seem to be focused, the story is pathetic and the so called crude humour that the series has been known for doesn't shock. Skip this lame installment and any future ones as well. I do not know why I have seen all the entries in the series, but for some unknown reason they seem to have found their way to my eyes.
