Synopsis: After a disastrous performance at the national competition the year before, Barden University's all-female competitive a cappella group, The Barden Bellas, must regroup. In doing so they manage to snag Beca (Kendrick) a loner freshman who aspires to be a music producer to join their rag-tag group, and who might just give them the fresh blood they need to beat the all-male group, The Treblemakers.
REVIEW
Andrew:
Hello readers! Last night Sarah and I braved the Friday night middle school
crowd to see a film we’ve been meaning to catch for a couple of weeks now, Pitch Perfect, starring a personal favorite of ours in Anna Kendrick (Up in
the Air).
Sarah:
Yeah, she’s been growing on us more lately, but we’ve always been fans of hers.
A:
Very true. So we caught her latest, Pitch Perfect, which is a comedy
about college a cappella groups at the fictional Barden University. Kendrick’s
character, Beca, is a freshman who is only going to college to appease her
father who teaches at the school, because she’d rather move to L.A. to become a
music producer.
But this also stars Rebel
Wilson as Fat Amy, and Wilson, who’s become more famous State-side after her
small role in Bridesmaids, should become a comedic star after this. Also
starring in Pitch Perfect are Anna Camp (The Help) and Brittany Snow (Hairspray)
as Aubrey and Chloe, the leaders of the Barden Bellas, and some new faces too…

| You can tell Anna Kendricks' Beca is an outsider who wants to become a DJ because of her piercings, makeup and big earphones. But it works. It really does. |
