American Pie Presents: Girls' Rules (2020 Video)

Story should have stood on its own, not American Pie presents

[7/10 · 9 October 2020]

I just finished watching this movie. It's a really cute and funny teen rom-com. So, while I don't agree with the current low rating here, I understand why. This cute story would have served itself better by not trying to tie itself into the American Pie franchise. It could have, and should have, stood on its own. It is a really cute movie, but not a classic like American Pie! So putting "America Pie Presents" at the front of the title, and making one of the main character's last name Stifler (the only one with a stressed up-front last name) was reaching as well as unnecessary and self-deafeating! If you like teen rom-coms, I do recommend watching the movie for its good story and acting, but divorce it in your mind from American Pie. It's not a fair comparison.
