   Extremely enjoyable musical scenes and some great humour from Rebel Wilson, but was I the only one who spotted the glaringly predictable and borderline offensive stereotypes? Quirky fish eating Asian...Butch black lesbian...Girl whose status as 'quirky' seems to stem entirely from the fact she has a few extra piercings...Yawn. Just a small pinch of originality and characters I haven't seen before is all I'm asking here. 10 years 8 months ago

   Pitch Perfect creates a ridiculous collegiate a cappella singing group subculture, and kind of sets you up for a spoof on "underdogs go to the championships" stories - especially with the two absurd announcers who seem to be in another movie - but like the films it wants to mock, it quickly becomes an excuse for stringing musical numbers together, and even runs head first into the clichés it pointedly attacked minutes before. And in a way, that's fine. The humor falls a bit flat (projectile vomiting jokes? really?), but Anna Kendrick is watchable enough to carry the picture. It's just unfortunate that the group leader won't listen to her ideas and that the movie makes us wait and wait and wait for a musical number that actually works, at least from the heroines. I suppose that's the pitfall of an underdog story, but this isn't a baseball movie. When musical numbers are a big part of the entertainment, withholding becomes a problem. 6 years 6 months ago

   The hype kinda killed it for me but I still enjoyed it quite a lot. Not as good as I thought it would be, but entertaining and fun. 8 years 11 months ago
