  Aca-mazing!, November 27, 2012

  This review is from: Pitch Perfect (DVD)

  If you read a synopsis of Pitch Perfect, it just sounds like your typical rom-com, coming-of-age, singing movie; but I swear to you it’s not. After being forced to see it by my stepbrother and his girlfriend, I was very, very pleasantly surprised. Pitch Perfect is probably one of my favorite movies ever now. As soon as the credits started rolling I knew I was in love and I needed to see it again. So I did, a week later. The music was aca-mazing! The soundtrack is absolutely off the charts! I am obsessed! My favorite song from it is the Bellas finals. The plot was a bit cliché, but good. The acting wasn’t fantastic, but the goal here clearly wasn’t to try and get nominated for an Oscar. They just wanted us to like the movie, and I more than liked it, so they succeeded.

  Anna Kendrick played Beca, an amateur DJ who wants nothing more than to leave college and move to Los Angeles, causing her to be miserable all the time and shutting out everyone who cares about her. Her main love interest Jesse, played by Skylar Astin (Ugh, I just melted when I said his name), is everything a charming college boy should be. Plus, he can sing. He tries to bond with Beca and sweep her off her feet, but she just shuts him out. This causes Jesse’s heart to break and every girl in America to get tears in their eyes. Needless to say, I fell in love with him. Brittany Snow and Anna Camp were hilarious as the Bella’s head voices; and Elizabeth Banks and John Michael Higgins were scene-stealers playing the commentators for the competitions. But, no one (not even Skylar) stole the show like Rebel Wilson did as Fat Amy. I won’t say anything else. Go see Pitch Perfect!

  This review is from: Pitch Perfect (DVD)

  A young girl, Becca(Anna Kendrick) arrives at her new college. She meets mean girls, sweet girls, and weird girls. They all have one thing in common, singing together. They fight to climb to the golden ladder of success in a cutthroat world. A world in which there’s a combination of being cool, and insanity. The music is Good, Acting Performance Excellent, and there are moments of laugh-out-loud fun. Rated PG13, not for very young children. Highly Entertaining from start to finish, and Enjoyable!
