A shadow of the first movie

Rating: 2/10 (27 July 2016)

The movie in question uses the same plot formula as the first, but executes it worse. I don't necessarily care about the comedy, but everything feels as the same as the first movie. From some random disaster that happens to the Bellas, a new girl coming into the group that ends up helping them, or some "unexpected way" to win in some competition. Along with the same direct plot formula, the main antagonist group, Das Sound Machine should have won the main competition, as the Bellas' performance is not even close to comparison. No part of the movie is redeemable from its repetition and generic character, but it's still tolerable to the point that I won't put a 1 star.
