For those of you who know me, you can probably already guess what I thought of this movie. It is about young adults, it involves music and has a romantic element.

I LOVED this movie. It was so completely fantastic. The main character was really understated and I loved that about her. The love interest was a really great guy. I fell for him just a little bit... and man - could he sing! The rest of the cast were all exaggerated characters and so funny. The story is filled with great one-liners that my husband and I keep repeating to each other.
My only aversion was two small scenes involving some puke... I'm not great with puke.
As far as the music was concerned - it was amazing. The singing was top quality, with awesome harmonies and great mash-ups. I ended up buying a bunch of songs off iTunes straight after watching it and my poor family has had to endure hours of me singing the same songs!
If you like a feel-good movie with excellent music and lots of really good laughs, then this one is definitely worth checking out.
5 stars from me :D
I loved Pitch Perfect, too!

ReplyDeleteI know!!! Such a brilliant movie :)
DeleteThere's enough charming here to make me wish that the movie had trusted itself enough to know that it doesn't need to dispense grossout humiliation to the characters in order to make them appealing.
ReplyDeleteThis is also a very good post which I really enjoyed reading. It is not everyday that I have the possibility to see something
