American Pie 1

This was probably one of the corniest movie I have ever seen in my life. There were a couple others that might come close, but atleast I got diverted by the humour in them, but this one seemed just catered to some craziness.
4 men, who are good friends, are worried that they would make it to college as virgins and they make a pact with each other to make sure that by prom night, they are not. Each one approached it in different ways.
Guy 1 didn't have a girlfriend. Apparently his tongue was always tied around girls and even when he got the chance to do it with someone, he blew it. He had a very supportive father, who talked to him about the seriousness and frivolity in the teenage years. He ends up finding a loquacious band girl for the prom date, whom he could barely stand, but holds up to. In the end discovers that she's in it for the same thing as him too.
Guy 2 had a girlfriend, but she was more into the emotional love aspect than the physical. Although he liked her, he is not able to commit to her emotionally. In the end, the girl changes her mind and they manage to do it on prom night.
Guy 3 tries his lines on his girlfriend and loses her, but with his exploration of his sensitive side, he manages to find a girl for himself. He really tries being sensitive and Mr.Nice. In the end, the girl falls for him and he falls for her and things fall well for him too.
Guy 4 is a nerd and tries to get girls by spreading 'positive' rumours about himself. He gets busted when one of the most popular jocks in school loses his prom date because of those rumours. He ends up with no date, but ends up having it with the same popular jock's mother.
At every point of the movie, I had to ask myself why I was watching it and most of it was just fast forward, considering more than half of it was just crude humour. I would definitely recommend to skip this movie.
