Great movie

Rating: 8/10 (21 July 2013)

Now I saw this film a lot later than most people meaning a lot of it was ruined for me by friends quoting it and pictures of the quotes. My expectations even before I watched the film were extremely high, standards set by what I was told about it. That meant when I eventually came to watching it I was a little disappointed.
I thought it was going to be the next "Mean Girls", where when asked if you've watched "Pitch Perfect" you'd reply "who hasn't watched Pitch Perfect?" (which my cousin did so when I'd asked if she'd seen "Mean Girls", bearing in mind none of them have seen "Pitch Perfect"). "Mean Girls" is the most quotable movie of all time people could say, but saying "Pitch Perfect" is a close second you'd be lying.
Even so, within the week I watched the film 3 or 4 days in a row whilst packing for my cadets camp and I've already watched it once again since coming back a week ago.
All the singing is great and I especially liked the scenes revolving around "The Breakfast Club" as I also love that movie.
Without Skylar Astin (Jesse) and Rebel Wilson (Fat Amy), this film would've been terrible. Astin is a great actor and was definitely the best singer in the whole film, his voice is amazing. Wilson's character was so funny and lovable, without Fat Amy there would've been nothing to quote from this movie.
Rated 8/10 for Wilson, Astin and the great singing by everyone, but disappointed with my expectations being set so high.
