Unfortunately, the magazine has just become the part of a larger company in a corporate takeover, and he’s been “demoted” (which has to be better than being “downsized”) in the shakeup. To make matters worse, his new boss Carter Duryea (Topher Grace) is half his age and thinks he knows everything. He is about to find out that he doesn’t.

Carter comes into the office and thinks that his business school theories will carry over to the magazine where Dan has been operating on handshakes for longer than he’s been alive. Unfortunately the cross-promotion ideals that Carter and the new organization hopes will make things work don’t seem to be taking off, and to make matters worse, Carter’s new wife dumps him just as he receives his promotion.

Dan isn’t immune either. As if losing his nice position to someone like Carter isn’t the worst news he could receive, his wife is pregnant with a new child (evoking echoes of Father of the Bride II) and Carter, fresh off his dumping, looks to Dan for insight, and when he comes home with him for dinner one night, meets Dan’s daughter Alex (Scarlett Johansson), which doesn’t make Dan any happier at all – especially when Dan finds out they’ve been secretly dating.

When the pressure gets on to get sales going or get fired, however, Dan and Carter team up and land a big account just in time, only to find out that the magazine has been sold again, and both Carter and the management team are out and Dan is back in charge, almost as if nothing happened.

There’s really no explanation of why Carter and Alex don’t see each other, except perhaps in respect to Dan’s wishes, which is the only downfall to the movie – other than that, it’s an enjoyable ride all around.

Rated PG-13 for some sexual content and drug references.

In this third go-round, Jim (Jason Biggs) and Michelle (Alyson Hannigan) are, as you may imagine by the title, getting married. As you may also surmise, simply because you’ve been paying attention previously, things probably aren’t going to go quite as expected along the way, and you’d be right, even if you hadn’t seen a single preview of the actual movie.

Sure, the gang’s all back – though not quite as you remember. Stifler (Seann William Scott in the role he was born to play) is, well, stiff, and it’s not in the way you’d expect. It’s like he’s grown tired of the role, and instead of being the relaxed, easy-going stiff-man, he’s over-the-top and just not enjoyable.

Band geek Michelle is back too, and her libido is in overdrive but her role in the movie is somewhat limited (though she really has some choice bits). The same can actually be said for Jim and perpetual lush Finch (Eddie Kaye Thomas) as well.

In the end, nothing new can be said – Jim gets in trouble, his pals save him, Stifler does something gross along the way (in new and previously unimaginable ways), Jim’s dad (Eugene Levy who thankfully returns) comes through for everyone (even the bride to be) and in the end, it’s just good to be alive. Enjoyable, but you don’t want too much at once.

Rated R for sexual content, language and crude humor. The humor hits a new level here, and crude doesn’t being to describe it. It’s crude alright. Really crude. Keep the kids away from this one. Heck, make sure they’re not even in the house if you can do so, but they’ll be chomping at the bit if they’re old enough.
