Sorry, this movie sucks

Fresh and Exciting

Disturbing yet enthralling

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

This movie is listed as a "comedy" a "romance" and "music." Unfortunately, its barely one of the three. Comedy - There is maybe one joke that made me laugh (the bit where the guy pulls a rodent out of his pocket way at the beginning) but otherwise I was so bored watching this. Someone being fat is not funny. Someone being gay is not funny. Someone being quiet is not funny. Someone being slightly out of the social norms is not a joke. I would be offended, but they don't go anywhere near far enough with anything for it to even qualify as shock humor. They went pretty far with all the puke (yes there are multiple scenes of projectile vomiting in this movie) and its just really, really gross. Shock humor needs to be funny. There has to be a set up and pay off. There has to be A J O K E. (Also, with gross-out, the characters in the show or movie need to be more grossed out than the audience - That's just a basic writing tip for anyone interested in comedy.) Most of the characters who witness the vomit are pretty cool with it. This movie does not work as a comedy. Romance - This movie isn't a romance. I don't know why its listed as that. Its kind of confusing. Music - This music is basically a series of really short music videos strung together by overlong and boring skits full of bad acting and filler.I wouldn't recommend this movie unless you want to take a nap. Its really boring, painfully unfunny and uncreative. There is really no reason to watch this movie when there are so many better pieces of media you could be watching.

I'm very late to this series, having dismissed it as a teen girl movie. Of course, my teen daughters loved it. When it got a third movie, I thought it might be worth trying out. I was pleasantly surprised! A very good cast with some great music numbers. It wasn't the typical trashy college movie, so it can be enjoyed by the whole family. Also there were a few great laugh out loud moments.

If music is part of your life in any way, you'll love the movie, it takes a little time to get used to the movie, but about halfway there is a pleasant, flowing and light connection. Fall in love with the strange characters, and the funnyness of a-cappella, just a funny movie that goes beyond rating. Music is a unique art that can touch any person.

OK, I expected Pitch Perfect to be stupid, but I did NOT expect all the trite homophobia. The one gay character (only one? In a film about acapella singing?) is a sexual predator who preys on straight people. Which is NOT a joke even though everyone seems to think it's hilarious. That character is like a gay stereotype from the 1940s. Roy Moore would approve.But the worst thing about this film is the singing. OF COURSE they're pitch perfect because they're autotuned to high heaven. It hurt my ears. And my soul. There wasn't a single human-sounding note in the entire film. Plus, I kept watching the choreography thinking they were messing it up on purpose and that they'd tighten it up by the end. But no. They just couldn't do it. And the choreo stank, BTW. I can't believe I'm going to say this because my expectations were VERY low, but I was super disappointed by this film. Do not like.
