Movie Review - Pitch Perfect

Acayeah!  So I went into this movie only knowing it had something to do with singing (I know, I'm a genius).  About 2 minutes in I think, "oh shit this is the a capella version of Step Up."  Luckily I was 60% wrong.

Acafunny!  This movie had the oddest group of characters, which equaled hilarious.  There is an underlining theme to The Breakfast Club throughout the movie.  No, there was no A Capella in Breakfast Club, though it's a thought for a sequel. What both movies show are the depths of stereotypical side characters you see in everyday life.  The fat girl, the quite Asian (watch out, it's always the quite ones), the lesbian, the alternative girl, the popular girl, etc.  

SNL started the trend, and this is the era of women in comedy.  Let's talk about Rebel Wilson, who plays Fat Amy (no thats her name I'm not being mean).  You may have had your first look at her during What to Expect when You're Expecting or in Bridesmaids.  I didn't know if I would like her character by the end of the movie, but I just wanted more.  She just has awesome comedic timing.  You are going to laugh throughout the movie and it is because of her acaawesomeness.  

You should go see Pitch Perfect.  A Capella has never been so fun.  No really, it hasn't, ever.
