Collider has revealed the official plot summary for American Reunion and as expected, the film centers around a reunion between our favorite East Great Falls alumni. The summary doesn’t reveal much more than that and it’s awfully vague. Check it out below.
In the comedy American Reunion, all the American Pie characters we met a little more than a decade ago are returning to East Great Falls for their high-school reunion. In one long-overdue weekend, they will discover what has changed, who hasn’t and that time and distance can’t break the bonds of friendship. It was summer 1999 when four small-town Michigan boys began a quest to lose their virginity. In the years that have passed, Jim and Michelle married while Kevin and Vicky said goodbye. Oz and Heather grew apart, but Finch still longs for Stifler’s mom. Now these lifelong friends have come home as adults to reminisce about—and get inspired by—the hormonal teens who launched a comedy legend.
Despite the unclear summary, I’m remaining optimistic about American Reunion. Truthfully, I’m just excited to see all these characters back on screen together and I think that alone will make the film worth seeing. These are some of my favorite comedy characters of all time and I’m a huge fan of the American Pie series. Admittedly, the recent spinoffs have been pretty crummy but then again, they didn’t feature the original cast.
American Reunion should fare well seeing as the whole gang is back and I’m really hoping that the filmmakers don’t disappoint with this one. It’s been far too long since we’ve seen these characters on screen together and we need a great reunion to remind us of what made the original films so special.
