The perfect mash up of Mean Girls, Glee, (in the musical sense), and Bridesmaids has arrived. Pitch Perfect proves to be just that, perfect. Beca, (Anna Kendrick), is new to Barden College and despite her hatred for the college life and longing to be a DJ in Los Angeles, she reluctantly joins the Barden Bellas, an all-girls a cappella group. Her love interest Jesse, (Skylar Astin), is a part of The Bellas rival singing group, the Trebel Makers, an all boy a cappella group. In the end, the two groups compete in the national championship.

I absolutely LOVED this movie. It was one of the funniest movies I have seen in awhile. Fat Amy, (Rebel Wilson), had me laughing till I cried in every single scene she was a part of. Rebel Wilson is one of the most hilarious actresses of our generation in my opinion. Every scene she was in the crowd roared with laughter. She had the best one. liners and facial expressions. The witty commentators Gail and John, (Elizabeth Banks and John Higgins), provide hilarious adult comedy for the older age group. They reminded me of the commentators featured in the comedy Dodgeball.

A large part of Pitch Perfect was the ear pleasing music. The movie included music ranging from the 80’s up until today. I enjoyed the arrangements in Pitch Perfect much more than those of Glee. The musical numbers in Pitch Perfect were better blended and more creative. My favorite part of the movie was the “Riff Off” where a cappella group gathered to compete in a sing off. The contestants were expected to sing songs about a certain category. A group could cut into another group’s song at anytime. I thought it was a clever addition to the movie and it added originality to it.

Pitch Perfect provides comedy for teenagers as well as adults. Though the ending was predictable, the inclusion of The Breakfast Club references was the icing on the cake for the end. I recommend this movie to teenagers and adults everywhere.
