Better than the first but far from being a good movie

Rating: 4/10 (31 May 2015)

After recently seeing the first Pitch Perfect; I had absolutely not intention to see the second one; but unexpected reasons made me do it. On the good side; I can tell that there are more songs, some musical numbers are better presented than the first movie and there is a serious statement about art (music) being not cutting and pasting other peoples work but being creative. In any case; that serious moment does not goes any further.
Compared to the first; some acting is a little better; but still Kendrick has zero charisma and Wilson is unfunny.
The story on the first movie was an absurd collection of clichés without any real logic; this one is pretty much the same but as most of the original cast is here and a few more characters have been added; Banks (the director) had to force more absurd (and not really funny ) situations to give everybody some screen time or adding an extra musical number.
The worse; is how insulting the movie is to common intelligence. Beyond the lack of logic; we never see of this people study; even when they are about to graduate. Even more surprising is where do they get resources for trips, vehicles, dressing, traveling and all other requirements to stage that kind of shows.
Again; the absurdity of the situations is such that some characters even question it; but that is all.
In brief; considering that the music moments are the only worth parts of this movie; get the soundtrack instead of losing your time.
