"Pitch Perfect", a Must See!

Rating: 10/10 (9 November 2012)

Pitch Perfect was an amazing, musical comedy anyone could enjoy. This film has a fantastic touch of humor, great mix of music, and a dash of competition that keeps everyone's attention on the screen. I love this movie, and I'm positive everyone else who has watched it would agree.
Obviously, no one can say no to a comical film, like Pitch Perfect. Jason Moore, the director, does a fabulous job finding the strengths of his cast and displaying it in this movie. Rebel Wilson, who plays the wonderful Fat Amy, is the most hilarious character in Pitch Perfect. With her overflowing confidence, witty lines, and her marvelous spunk, Fat Amy is one of the most memorable characters of 2012. Jason couldn't have found a better comedian and lines to make this cinema more hilarious than it is. The humor gets better when a controlling singer, a freshman with an attitude, and a whole group of unlikely girls get together to form an a cappella group, the Barden Bella's.
Additionally, the movie has a mix of music that blew me away. Music performances involved in this film are not the cheesy glee kind or the Broadway numbers; the numbers performed are a clever mixture of modern music and old favorites that have everyone's feet tapping, for example, when the Barden Bella's sing a clever mash-up of "Just the Way You are" by Bruno Mars and "Just a Dream" by Nelly. My favorite part of the movie was the riff-off, a competition between a cappella groups where they have to make up performances based off a random genre selection. One of the category options in the riff- off was actually songs ruined by Glee.After the movie, I even bought some songs from the movie off of iTunes. Pitch Perfect inspires to start singing, along with the friends I saw the movie with.
However, no movie can be perfect. Along with the movies wit and humor, comes some judgment. I wouldn't recommend this movie for younger audiences; Pitch Perfect has some comedy meant for older ages. With that said, great lessons are learned in this movie like when Fat Amy said, "Even though some of you are pretty thin, you all have fat hearts, and that's what counts." There is one part that sickens some, like when the performers vomit, but the rest of the movie is worth the ten seconds of disgust.
Furthermore, competition makes any audience glued to the screen. With the constant tension between groups, the pressure of winning, and reputation on the line, the cinema catches the audiences attention. Along with the competition, members of each group battle friendship, romances, and college on their journeys, which really showed me how relatable the movie actually is. Jason does a fantastic job creating this movie, and I wouldn't change anything about it.
Ultimately, Pitch Perfect was a pleasant surprise as soon as I walked in the theater. My goal is to have people enjoy this movie as much as I did. This film is a comical musical that I will never forget. See Pitch Perfect, you won't regret it. This combination of comedy, music, and competition is a great way to enjoy your day.
