Pitch Perfect - Review
Jason Moore marks his debut in a feature film with Pitch Perfect. The story is set at Barden University. Beca played by Anna Kendrick is a fresher at the college and decide to join the all-girls singing group of her college named as ‘The Bellas’. The rest of the movie is all about how they plan to take over the male rivals in the competition held in the campus.
The movie clearly seems inspired from Bridesmaid kind of humor and other movies. The Bellas are trying to win the audience reactions by showing off in bikinis while singing pop but end up in complete irony. A new life is injected into the singing group as an aspiring DJ Anna enters in the campus and joins their group.
Expect the actors to be really good and funny at many places. We have already seen Anna but the supporting cast as well has done really well. The comic timing is pitch perfect as the title says. It might not make you laugh out loud but will definitely make you smile.
The story is predictable and that’s where it lacks majorly. Once into the core of the movie, one can suggest scene by scene easily. There is no need to wait for the movie as everything can be deduced. A hint of romance is also added to spice up things a bit. But it was least important to the viewers. Moreover the subplot of romance was predictable as well.
The script is quite simple and clean. There is no hotchpotch going on as the movie runs at a moderate pace with simple unfolding of the events. The music has gone really well with the movie. If you are a music lover you will definitely like the movie. The integration of music is really worth watching. The funny moments blends in the story perfectly.
One might want to regard it as a chick flick. There is no doubt that the girls are going to like it much bore but it is an enjoyable film for guys as well. The humor though derived from bridesmaid is not at all encircled around PG 13. There is a big bunch of crude humor which should have escalated the rating above PG 13 but stay in tacked with the movie.
But the crude humor is what exactly has made it a good watch for guys too. If you remember watching Easy A, you can co-relate the kind of humor present in Pitch Perfect with that. After a long time, Pitch perfect is the perfect musical comedy that has been released to serve the purpose efficiently. This will definitely put a smile on the face of every age group especially teenagers.
