The only way to
describe the awesomeness of Pitch Perfect is to imagine a super long
fun filled Glee, double the fun, double the energy and we get a great
comedy/musical.
Not only does Pitch
Perfect supply us with more fun and the urge to start singing and
dancing every 5 minutes. It seems the producers and directors have
taken note from Glee! And why shouldn't they Glee is a top quality
successful show. You can see where the influence has come from to
make this film.
Beca (Anna Kendrick) a
new chick on the block starting college, would rather lead her life
mixing and playing music in LA (with a little help from her father).
However she doesn't get onto that path easily, as she is somewhat
forced into joining an all-girl A-Capella group.
With the repetitive
songs throughout the competitions it can get a little annoying. But
it contains meaning and foreshadows towards the end. The group contains a
variety of girls from a black lesbian and Fat Amy (real name Patricia
as we find out). The film contains lots of meaning to youths, it’s a
nice upbeat friendly film that will easily have you singing all day.
Like in all films there
is of course a villian-ish. The competing team is an all-male group
who have alter egos and can't be any more in love with themselves.
But we see them work together to become a powerful voice which gets the
ladies going wild.
The film holds a small
handful of romance, I would've loved to see more. I sort of felt
rushed through Anna’s and Jesse’s romance. But hey romance isn't
up to everyone’s taste.
Pitch Perfect is just
the package that we all know was coming when Glee arrived. At times
it seemed more of spoof than a teenage comedy/drama. From time to
time it wobbles from safe happy atmosphere to uncomfortable creasing
one liners. Overall, it is a good satisfying film for the needs of
teenagers who just can't get enough of all singing all dancing
action.
I’m feeling a sequel
might be in order...
