Folies de graduation présente: Le livre de l'amour

Dildo. If you're laughing hysterically right now, this is totally the movie for you. If not, "Book Of Love" is going to be a pretty tiresome ride. Nobody expects a great story when they see the "American Pie Presents" (what does that even mean?) moniker, but a little variation here and there would be pretty nice. I mean, come on. Another batch of hapless (not to mention unlikable) virgins getting into sexual misadventures? Another previously unmentioned Stifler cousin? Another utterly pointless appearance by Jim's dad? You know your plot elements are desperately uninspired when they make "Band Camp" seem fresh. The movie's also very unstructured, it's basically just a series of barely related sketches. Wouldn't be that much of a problem if the little vignettes were funny, but the supposed highlight of the movie consists of faux-Stifler getting raped by a moose. Creative stuff right there. The makers even seem fully aware they're making crap, but all they do to solve it is adding more frighteningly plastic boobs. This is just painful to watch.

OK so I decided to watch this movie when i received it on DVD a few nights ago and I thought it was pretty decent. Its no means like the original American pie movies (first 3 movies) but its still pretty good. In my opinion, its better than the last 3 spin-offs (those were a joke). Book of love had interesting characters and they weren't really annoying and weird. It also had a few funny scenes, like the opening scene where the main characters does pleasure with a peanut butter sandwich, and a scene with "monique" lol. I had some low expectations about this movie because I've heard some good reviews and some bad ones but I was expecting it to be poor, but I was surprised, it was pretty good. It isn't on the level of the original American pie movies but that doesn't mean its garbage. Although there wee a few weird and dumb scenes. Overall, i liked the movie and it was a thrill watching it.

As a rewatch 04.03.20' and over 10 years since the original viewing. Opinions have slightly changed, as this film is quite poor, really isn't that funny and at many times comes across as forced. The characters really aren't that interesting or memorable, although the lead character of Rob is likeable, he does come off as rather weak minded. The film is watchable and as stated in the original comment, there are some decent scenes as this entry does appear to have more heart in comparison to the other spinoffs. But overall it isn't that great. Rating changed from a 7 to 5. As an updated watch 03 05 24, opinions remain relatively same. This film has less raunchy and a more romance vibe compared to the previous 3 straight yo video entries. It is tamer and less skin shown compared to Naked Mile and Beta House but a more concise story.

okay, I'll not beat around the bush here...

I am currently working on my laptop and this movie was just played on TV in the background. of course I saw the "moose" scene, which seemed to be a highlight of this movie. I directly zapped after this moment.

Let me tell you that this... "highlight" was actually pretty bad, the fun level was low, the CGI's were so cheap...it was just AWFUL !! Don't buy, rent or even watch this movie if you don't wanna be disgusted like me.

Just see the other reviews to understand what's going on here...I had even to cheat with the empty lines on this review to be approved, so I have nothing more to say about this crap.

this movie did not bring up to American pie standards the story line should have been looked at more carefully the actors for me should not have played the part, stifler is not a stifler if they want to make a new American pie again they need to bring up their A game like kicking off the actors and going back to Noah Levenstine's time when he was young because all the movies have pretty much said that he was a god. I watched the movie and after looking at stifler for the first time i knew this movie is the worst American pie, the story line had so much potential but they messed it up. This what happens now with movies now a days :(

i must say, i had higher expectation. i thought they had good concept and the trailer did show promising movie but i was a bit disappointed. most of the movie they just repeated the same thing, getting laid, instead of focusing on the book. more focus on the book could be much better. i would cut some party time and add the search for book writers. i felt like i was missing something.

the actors gave me the feeling I'm watching high school acting class but in a real movie. none of them were aware of their surroundings, they just said their lines with a little face and thats it.

and stifler... worst stifler ever. i cant believe they chose HIM as stifler. he doesn't even look like a stifler. his acting (if you call it acting) it was like watching a stick talking like a stifler, no emotion whatsoever. he is not that bad, its just that he is not a "stifler" character. hes more like the friend that helps when needed.

what with the constant nudity. this movie was too sexual, almost like soft-core porn. American pie 123 were very good and weren't THAT sexual.

yes this movie felt a lot more American pie than the other spin offs but still didn't come even close to the first and second.

too bad. they had high potential with this one.

5/10.
