It might not be mentioned in the same breath as other era-defining movies, but back in 1999, American Pie was THE definitive coming-of-age movie, with a huge cult following amongst teenagers - so much so, it spawned a number of (unmentionable) terms that have become ubiquitous today, not to mention a three sequels and a bunch of spinoffs. The sex comedy centers on a group of five high school boys who make a pact to lose their virginity before high school graduation; which, as you can imagine, is ripe for much inappropriate humour. We revisit the move after more than two decades, to see how well it has aged, and whether it has anything to offer the audience of today.
