American Wedding (2003)

Koehler finds this a strong, funnier finish to the franchise, with its shift toward grown-up characters paying off. He especially praises the farcical set pieces and Fred Willard’s comic performance.

Rabin finds the comedy ramshackle but generally effective, with the series’ familiar mix of raunch and sentiment still working. He praises its affable cast and comic energy, while noting that its shock gags feel less shocking than they once did.

The available description says the film repeats the series’ established mix of sexual humiliation, scatology and sentimentality. The full review is unavailable, so its overall verdict and specific praise or complaint cannot be established.

The review finds the film an uneven but entertaining comedy, with enough laughs to make it a decent snack. It praises Eugene Levy’s reliably funny performance as Jim’s Dad, while faulting Stifler’s overemphasis and the sidelining of other characters.

Schager finds the sequel creatively depleted, with juvenile gross-out humor overpowering its gestures toward wholesome sentiment. He credits Stifler’s antics with providing sporadic laughs, but says the rest of the wedding is mundane and stale.

Bradshaw finds the film largely unfunny and its crude humor dull, despite some amiable energy. He singles out Stifler’s attempt to impress Cadence as one bright scene.

Errigo finds the film stale and gross-out humor dispiriting, though the wedding itself is unexpectedly sweet. She particularly objects to the dog-poop gag and says the script lacks fresh jokes.

The critic finds the third installment more sophisticated and broadly entertaining than expected. Seann William Scott’s comedic performance as Stifler is singled out for praise.

The critic finds American Wedding marginally better than the second film but well below the original. Eugene Levy’s warmth is praised, while Stifler’s implausible character shifts and the bachelor-party sequence are criticized.
