"...may be the most outrageous slice of pie yet!" I popped the disc in, all smug and superior, and ... what the hell? A few early chuckles? (Thanks mainly to a profane cameo appearance by Christopher McDonald, but still.) The connection to American Pie, American Pie 2 and American Wedding is this: Eugene Levy shows up (once again) to wiggle his wacky eyebrows and earn a quick check. Beta House takes a few listless jabs at what could charitably be termed "plot threads," but really the movie's nothing more than a barely-connected series of set-pieces that are obsessed with one of two things: Female breasts and male semen. When the movie's not pandering to your basic lust for nipples and/or bodily excretions, it's ostensibly about a group of college freshmen (one of whom is Eric Stifler) who aim to pledge a frat. Yeah, that's it. But there's a small silver lining to be found buried beneath all the sophomoric silliness, frequent expulsions of vomit, and head-slap-obvious "man juice" jokes... One of the few plot threads that gets batted around in Beta House goes like this: The hard-partying frat boys are the heroes -- and the humorously evil members of the "geek frat" are the villains. With a better screenplay, you could really do something with this concept, but writer Erik Lindsay only gets to explore a few of the (mildly) clever ideas. (There's a gag involving sexy Star Trek role-playing that I found extremely effective, a decent portion of the characters' "off-hand banter" is kinda funny, and a few of the movie references (like The Deer Hunter and Apocalypse Now, oddly enough) are better than your average gag.) Had the filmmakers opted to focus a bit more on the main "cool studs vs. evil nerds" story, instead of constantly digressing with stand-alone set-pieces (strip club scene! makeout scene! party scene!) that are slightly amusing at best and egregiously simple-minded at worst ... well, we might have had a real surprise on our hands. As it stands we have a plainly mediocre (and cheap-looking) sex comedy that's content to deliver a bunch of the same old hooey for the same old horny 14-year-olds. Let's hope a seventh installment doesn't bring the franchise any further down. What next:- American Pie Presents Stifler's Extended?Read full review
This is one of the best American Pies ever made! The Naked Mile was a bit of a let down but Beta House will blow your socks off! There is more jokes, more nudity and more fun in Beta House. Erik is off to Uni, he has split up with his long time girlfriend and wants some fun, meeting up with his cousin Stifler things can only get wilder!!! A very good movie wiht lots of funny moments, the American Pie Series has now been going 10 years and its still going strong, if you get a chance to see this then do it, you will not regret seeing American Pie Presents Beta House!
American Pie Presents Beta House (DVD) is a typical comedical peice of cinematography which keeps up with if not better the previous american pie's. the story long is some what simple but makes the story line easy to follow and develops good understanding of the characters. compared to the last american pie (the naked mile) this final dvd in the series is a notch above it, it has more humour, more excitment and generally is miles better. if you want a good laughable comedy and love american pie then this dvd is a must have.
