Director: Jon Hurwitz, Hayden Schlossberg
Actors: Jason Biggs, Alyson Hannigan, Seann William Scott
PlotThirteen years after graduating from high school, a group of friends reunites in their hometown for a weekend filled with reminiscing, misadventures, and new challenges. Jim and Michelle's marriage has lost some of its spark due to the demands of parenting their young son. Kevin is now a contented architect under increasing stress from his wife. Oz, a successful sportscaster dating a model, grapples with lingering feelings for his high school sweetheart Heather. Meanwhile, seemingly unchanged Stifler faces trouble maintaining his unruly energy in the adult world while Finch is living an extravagant, albeit mysterious, life abroad.
As they reconnect, the friends navigate the complexities of adult life and rekindle their bonds formed in high school. Nostalgia and unresolved tensions bubble to the surface, leading to a series of awkward, riotous situations typical of their youth. Amidst the chaos, each character confronts their past actions and present circumstances, seeking closure or a renewed sense of purpose. They collectively address emotional rifts and discover whether those high school ties can withstand the test of time and distance. Inevitably, the reunion proves a transformative experience for all involved.

Home Video Reviews
American Reunion's uninspired sequel is saved minimally by decent audio but fails to revive the franchise; nostalgia can’t justify a purchase, only a rental.
