Movie review - "American Wedding" (2003) **1/2

The 3rd in the American Pie series sees Jason Biggs marry Michelle, the band camp nympho. Despite that the film's story is really about Stiffler (Sean William Scott) becoming a nicer person - the film sort of tries to be a ensemble piece on one hand but knows the money is with Stiffler on the other so it feels out of shape. The character of Finch (Eddie Kaye Thomas) has some good moments but the character of Kevin (Thomas Ian Nicholas) has nothing to do. I mean NOTHING. You kind of feel embarrassed for him being in the film. Chris Klein and Tara Reid do not return but Eugene Levy does, bringing along his old Best in Show co-star Fred Willard who plays Michelle's mum. The part of Michelle's sister is played by January Jones, who has a bit of a poor-man's-Amy-Smart vibe about her. The film incudes some genuinely laugh out loud moments and is quite entertaining at times.
