Little Fockers (2010)

★★★

The Fockers have finally settled down and had two lovely children but now, after having a near-fatal heart attack, Jack Byrnes realizes that he must find an heir to take his place as the head of the family… and that person is Greg Focker. Greg now has to prove to Jack that he is a capable father, that he is loyal to him and his wife Pam and that he is a leader. However, temptation comes knocking when a young attractive erectile dysfunction rep begins flirting with Greg and that’s just the beginning. This sequel was expected since the last two movies set up the fact they will be having ‘little Fockers,’ and I enjoyed it. Sure it’s a little over the top at times and some of the heart is missing but for a sequel, it was pretty funny and I enjoyed it. It left if open for a sequel and all I can say is: Jack Byrnes is suburbia will be pretty wild.

American Pie (1999)

★★★☆☆

After realizing that their lives are going nowhere unless they have sex, four high school friends make a pact to get laid before their graduation/prom. But in the process, the boys discover what true love is, what sex really is and how relationships work… and in turn they begin think that sex doesn’t have to be pointless or emotionless. This was a movie that was sort of in the vain of those teen rom-coms of the 80s and some people have quoted it as the American Graffiti of the 90s. I really enjoyed this movie because it was the closest thing I got to high school while still attending middle school. Though some jokes fall flat, by the end of the movie you just want to see how things will be resolved. It has heart, it’s hysterical and as shallow as it may seem it’s a great coming of age movie with lots of character depth. It truly is a 90s film but it’s something more than that.
