This Movie is Horrible. Predictable Story. Same Type Teenage Drama Which we have seen in many movies before this. Poor Story Execution, Terrific Screenplay & All Star Cast performance Average not very good.
Final Verdict: If you have care your time and money then please stay away this movie. Otherwise, as you wish.
My Rating: 4/10

It's impossible to make a decent sex comedy in which everyone is horny yet all covered up during their sex scenes... But I guess that's what sex comedies in the US are condemned to... Lots of sex and zero nudity...
The jokes are not that original either... But if at least the characters freed themselves from such puritanical treatment, it would be fun to watch.

Forced "feminism", but then shows girls treating a guy like meat. Not at all American pie style. It is more like a very cheap romantic movie full of teenagers' drama. Okay to watch if you like that kind of movie. But it is not funny as American Pie movies and the story is actually poor and superficial.

The perfect way to destroy the American Pie saga is this movie. Do yourself a favor and never watch it. I will try really hard to forget that i watch it.

How can the director have the courage to screw up the franchise name.
A silly film, of idiots in love
Cade the real Stifler, this woman is nothing at all.

This female centered American Pie flick is sadly a not very funny, completely sanitized film with lazy writing and directing. The worst offense is a very forced feminist message. But before the pitchforks and fire comes out I am all for equal rights, but crudely forcing the message in every bit of (once) popular entertainment property doesn't work (Well hello Ghostbusters, Terminator: Dark Fate and Charlie's Angels!). This latest gasp of American Pie will go down in history as: the one that effectively killed the once hit comedy franchise.

Just cancel 2020 with stinkers like this. An absolute insult to the American Pie family.

First off, let me start off by agreeing with the majority of folks here. This is not an American Pie movie as you would understand it.
For generations now, American teens have had the "awkward sex comedy" film, complete with relatable tropes. Seems that every decade we need something to help young men laugh at the awkwardness of puberty and for people who've been through it to cringe retroactively. A young man is cursed with raging hormones and a gangly awkwardness and lack of social skills that makes approaching someone and saying "please allow me to insert part of myself into you" extremely difficult.
This movie for various reasons follows a Four Horsewomen team of brash Joan Jett-like tough girl Stef Stiffler, Sexually Active In A Relationship Kayla, Debate Team Future President Lovable Chubby Michelle, and Still A Virgin Holding Out For Mr. Right For Her First Time Annie. They end their latest break bemoaning their problems and make a pact. By Homecoming they will meet their sexual goals. If this was a typical sex comedy the goal would be "get laid" but that's really easy for most women so it's "make your first time special with the man you love", "find a guy who treats you right" and so forth. Right away we're not lookingat a sex comedy, it's a rom com.
It's hard to genderflip the sex comedy, because the vast majority of women have the opposite problem, namely that they're constantly bombarded with sexual interest but not necessarily by the top guy they want.
Which is why, by definition, this turns into a girl power movie where the girls are not happy with the sexual attention of adults, creeped out by being ogled by the majority of the school's male population, which they deem to be "rats", I think part of the invective against it by most reviewers here is that male-oriented ones speak to the problem of starvation and by that metaphor this one is "all four of us want the last slice of cake, whatever shall we do?"
Because eventually all four realize that to satisfy their pact in the way they imagine, it's to get with the just-transferred-in-the-last-semester-of-school-ever Adonis named Grant.
The biggest problem with the movie is that movies really thrive on the concept of a character overcoming a problem, and the other three just simply decide to "settle". Disturbingly, for all the movie crows about getting rid of patriarchal interference in what's messaged to girls, see if you can guess which player - the rowdy sexually aggressive girl, the relationship-sex-three-times-a-day girl, the chubby awkward one with a literal foot locker full of sex toys, or the sweet, virginal intact good girl is the one who gets the prize of the best guy at the end. This isn't a spoiler, they practically ship the couple from the jump.
What would be a better movie is one that speaks to the genuine awkwardness girls face. Except that it would probably involve menstrual gags, period-induced diarrhea, physical mishap and so forth that no censor would allow onto the screen. The suggestion of Judge Reingold's character in Fast Times engaging in self-abuse at the sight of a girl is one thing. A visual gag involving a very real world problem of... how can I put this delicately... "will it fit?" was scrapped.
I am waiting for a film that my female friends scream at the screen going YES YES OH MY GOD YES UGH CRINGE but so far that hasn't happened. Though the director sought out female writers, female assistant directors and so forth and built a soundtrack out of you-go-girl all girl acts, if you're going to do a sex comedy, it needs to be less Bananarama and more Wendy O. Williams. (Not the talk show host, the lead singer of the Plasmatics).
I want that film to be made, for the next generation of girls. So far all they've had is someone trying to pound their square peg into a male-troped round hole.

The movie "Girls Rules" directed by Mike Elliot, gives an unimaginative and hastily made a mediocre spin on American Pie. The lead actor played by Madison Pettis gives an uneven performance, but she is not the worst thing in this production. The direction in which this movie tried to go made me want to rip off my ears and eyes and put them inside the washer to clean them. I have wasted 1h 35min of my life, while at the same time lost brain cells by watching this movie.

The problem that most people in the reviews and ratings have is that they are likely used to the typical American Pie raunchiness. This movie plays out like a teen romance movie, but with the added adult comedy of the American Pie Franchise. It was a surprisingly good combo, and as someone who has seen quite a few "girl-power chick flicks" I loved the twist on this one really showing how teen girls can be just as hormonal as teen boys lol. The movie was fun with a tiny touch of heartwarming that somehow worked.

Felt like a Disney Channel movie with some very censored sex scenes and a swear word here and there.
In general a good movie but no way an American Pie. And how can you call it American Pie without the legend himself Mr. Noah Levenstein!

This is nothing like American Pie movies. Just woke propaganda in my opinion and not even funny jokes. They finally killed the franchise.

Why is this an American Pie movie? Sucked. I was expecting an actual comedy which should have an R rating not a ruined tittle rated PG.

"You're still clit-blocked by the patriarchy"
This is an actual line from the movie.
I love the American Pie movies. And how timely that Schitt's Creek is ending, with such incredible accolades from fans and critics. Eugene Levy was in the original American Pie, which was a wonderful movie.
Eugene Levy is not present in person or In essence in this horrible, disgusting, pathetic homage to the original. It's a waste of everything, and these actors are terrible. As is the script. Please do not watch this trash, garbage nonsense.

I actually love the American pie movies, but this movie.. It just wasn't good.. I really wanted too, but it sucked. The acting wasn't great the majority of the time, there were scenes that you could tell it was a set and super fake looking, the story was weak, and overall disappointing.

The movie wants to be the first American Pie crossed with road trip. I get that American Pie movies are meant to be trash but this film tarnishes the good name of trash. This coming from a guy who sat through American Pie Book of Love. It's got girls trying to be boys and boys acting like girls. Its
A complete mess with no real direction. If you want to watch great teen woke film I recommend Book Smart but avoid this one like the plague.

This is the worst 2020 movie so far. It's cringey, predictable , forgettable, weak storyline , weak jokes, weak acting , it's definitely not the "american pie" we know .

Not even funny. Doesn't even come close to original American Pie films. Wouldn't waste your time on this one.
I don't understand why there is so bad reviews like 1-2 stars. I mean, yeah, maybe it wasn't good or better but this was best of American Pie presents. Except this one and The book of love, others deserve your lower points, but not that one really

Its a movie geared more twords middle school girls. I only watches the first 10 min had to turn it off. Typical Netflix movie trying to social engineer a generation. Who funs and green lights these movies? They should be fired.
Cute movie. Kept me entertained. No tie to the original American Pies but I still enjoyed it.

This one is probably my least favourite American pie franchise a really just wasn't American pie but I still loved it and I still highly recommended
Yeah, it sucked. First off, can't believe the "Game Plan" girl (Madison Pettis) is 22 now, I am old. Hollywood needs to stop with this NO NUDITY BS in movies and shows dealing with sex and crude humor. They made the Stifler character female, not an issue, but she is not Stifler in ANY way (you can make a female Stifler, it's not hard). They also need to stop this DRY HUMPING CLOTHES ON sex scene BS also, just skip it or have it implied. Someone mentioned sexual conversations, there literally were NONE, they literally just made a sex pack, they didn't talk about anything. LBH these girls have no issue getting laid, the issue for women is giving the right guy the chance, but it's all about physical attraction and in here other people tell each one who was the right one for them cause they ignored them, typical. 2 Stars cause it could have been remotely good, a diverse group of young ladies, but you just totally killed every aspect of what made American Pie good. Honestly the American Pie movies have not been the same after the 3rd movie. These are literally CW and FREEFORM movies now. Hollywood is literally stealing money, if you renting these types of movies.
