Go see this!
Pitch Perfect is a fun comedy with some great songs and good characters, but it still gives a predictable story. This movie is one of the best comedies of the 2012 and gave me some great moments to remember, and even being a guy I felt this was a fun movie. I sometimes enjoy comedies that are aimed at females, like how I even enjoyed Mean girls because it was a good high school comedy. Its also got a lot of heart between its characters so its not one of those comedies that has no soul. Its a goofy comedy with jokes aimed at singers, movies, and a lot of other pop culture references. The story has a romantic interest between the two main characters, which was predictable as usual and I felt it could've been left out of the movie. I also could've been fine without all the vomit jokes. Its true genius lies in the performances of its actors, which includes the hilarious Rebel Wilson as Fat Amy who just steals the movie completely. I enjoyed the performance from Anna Kendrick who is sweet and lovable as always, and Skylar Astin who was a fun actor to watch. John Michael Higgins and Elizabeth Banks also were great as the announcers for the competitions, and they return to the screen together after the 2007 film Fred Claus. Another hilarious performance came from Adam DeVine who plays on the show Workaholics, and uses his comedic talents in this film. I loved all the cover songs, and I felt they really did a good job at singing. The finale of the movie gave me goosebumps, and I was surprised that they were able to do this. Pitch Perfect was a fun film to watch and I had a great time.
