SummaryIt was bound to happen, sooner or later. The raucous and lovable characters from the wildly successful American Pie series have gone and done it -- well they're planning on doing it. Really soon. In front of everyone they know. In a big way. Jim (Biggs) and Michelle (Hannigan) are getting married. (Universal Pictures)

The movie is enormously, convulsively funny, and it never lets up -- it has no shame.

Combining raunchiness and sweetness in a slapdash but generally effective manner.

My favorite movie from the whole series. I just kept cracking up non stop throughout. Still whenever I watch it I can't stop laughing.

I laughed, I laughed some more, I almost threw up, and laughed some more.
I gave this movie a 10 out of 10 because for a comedy it made me laugh continuously. Not a minute was wasted. Even if the situation was totally absurd, as many were, the conviction of the actors in their roles was enough to keep it going. Stiffler and Finch's rivalry reached new highs and lows in this one as they compete for the affections of Michelles virgin little sister Cadence. Fred Willards addition in this third movie was welcome, even if his role was subtle. I can't think of anything bad to say about this movie. The plots were simple but believable.. How complex can a wedding story be anyways. It made sense, it was funny, it was definately funnier than the second american pie movie.. im not going to say it was funnier than the first but I definately laughed longer and harder in this one. Well done. Plus Alyson Hannigan is somehow getting hotter as the movies progress..

The familiar formula feels significantly watered-down the third time around.

Its commendable, if juvenile, sense of erogenous adventure is sullied by bland technique, canned suburban punk music, and the fact that all the exploration does amount to maturer characters.

Best of all, though, is Seann William Scott as the profoundly annoying, profoundly vulgar Stifler.

The strain and desperation are apparent from the first scene.

A gross-out saga that sentient adults should avoid like the plague.

THIS MOVIE WAS SOSOSOSO FUNNY! In the beginning, you might think that this movie is going to really ****, but it won't. In the middle, it gets really funny.

For me this is one of the best comedy films I have seen. I really like the American pie films and this one is the best in my opinion. There are so many funny moments, especially scenes involving stiffler. The dance scene in the night club is absolutely hilarious. If you want to watch a film that has a feel good vibe and will keep you laughing I would highly recommend watching.

Not as good as the first or second but had some memorable moments but the weakest of the three.

I thought this was better than the 2nd but still doesnt touch the 1st one. It's interesting to see the people still get into stupid situations.
