What Parents Need to Know
About American Pie
Parents need to know that teens talk about having sex explicitly in this film. Girls and boys masturbate, as well as give and get oral sex. There's discussion and depiction of premature ejaculation and faking orgasm, and boys talk about lying to girls to get them to sleep with them. And mostly, teens try to find out about sex without talking to their parents. This is a great film to watch ahead of teens, all of whom know about the series and probably want to watch it.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about what teens think of sex, how many of their friends they think are having sex, and what parents think of teens having sex. It's also a good opportunity for parents to answer whatever questions teens may have, both about values surrounding sex and about safe sex. Parents may also want to put an over-the-top comedy like this in perspective. The antics of these sex-crazed teens come at you fast and furiously, making some of the laughs mostly about the shock value. What other movies and TV shows reach for a laugh this way? (Jackass and South Park are a good start to the list.) Do you think there's danger here if a viewer doesn't understand the comedy on that level? Do you think some teens will feel pressured about sex before they're ready by watching a movie like this? Or do you think it's just a funny situational comedy?

Good movie

Great for anyone in highschool
First of all this is a great movie. second of all, this movie is good for anyone in highschool. There are plenty of cliche movies about seperation by jock and prep and nerds and losers but highschool isn't like that. Sure there are people who no one really talks too and people no one likes but in highschool, most people are just concerned about, their reputation, sex, and liquor. In fact in my highschool, atleast 65% of the students smoke marijuana and get high on a weekly and even daily basis. Atleast 15% of the freshman aren't virgins. Most teen girls won't care or will even be offended by the female nudity and trust me when I say, if your son is in highschool, he's seen porn. So if you honestly think there's something (other than an older women having intercourse with an 18 year old) in this movie your teens/high school students haven't already seen, then you're either protecting your kids too much, or your an.. um... politely, idiot.

This Was funny!
OK. Even though this is rated R and has alot of things in it that most parents wouldn't want their kid exposed to, its funny and its very well made. definatly worth watching! if your kid is mature enough to handle it- let them watch it with there friends!

A must-see movie (for adults)!
I'm pretty lenient when it comes to what I let my 3 kids watch (ages 5, 9 & 11), but this one is just out of the question. Maybe when the oldest is 14 or 15. I know it would be a good time to have "that talk" with them, but on the other hand, by watching it they may be more inclined to find out more about sex on their own.

Very funny!
This movie is really, really funny. There is a lot of sex though and lots of language etc... Recomended for 15+

Oh, come on...
These guys are all depicted as HS seniors, not pubescents. They all get their comeuppance, ending up realizing that sex really IS a big deal after all. Every dirty trick they try back-fires. Three of them fall in love (two of whom get their hearts broken) and the other two get exploited by girls/women. The underlying theme is really pretty sweet. Your teens all know people who act like this. If they are likely to change their behavior for the worse after watching this movie, then shame on you! (I would have liked to see more concern for safe sex/disease avoidance, though)

Really bad sexual i movie!!
this movie is bad, my mother says that she will let me see it in the future but right now this will give me a very bad idea! This movie and others play a part as real life. Too much sex in this. I HAVE NOT YET SEEN IT, BUT REMAIN GROSSED OUT! THIS MOVIE ENCOURAGES ADULTS TO THINK BAD OF THEIR TEENS. WARNING: DO NOT ACT LIKE THE TEENAGERS IN THIS MOVIE! NO SEXING LIKE THAT! YUCK! HOW DID THEY GET THE CHARACTERS TO FAKE SEX?? NO SEXUAL Sexual harassment TOWARD SOMEONE AND THEY DON'T LIKE IT! WARN TEENS NOT TO BECOME LIKE THAT!!
