New girl in pitchperfect5/17/2023 And that’s what I feel like I’ve done in this review. Hard as I try not to, comparisons inevitably make it into the equation. However, I’m not too bothered because it’s too much fun even without her being always “in the zone” as it were. She sort of “checks out” in parts of the story. There’s some talk that Anna Kendrick isn’t the same as in movie one, and there are moments this is true. The cast carries their characters well, and I love their unique personalities including Beca’s snarky rebel (though her reaction to their competition is weird) Fat Amy’s easy-going, free-spirit personality and even, Chloe’s hyper attitude, something she apparently picks up in the wake of Aubrey leaving. This film does a nice job of bringing back familiar faces, in spite of one now being alumni. Throughout, there is a lot of typical “girl stuff” that crops up, and through it all, their friendships keep the story “real” and entertaining. What is best about these films are the friendships. It’s sort of a necessity when discussing these films). Returning to their world was acca-awesome (sorry, had to use one of their buzz words as a descriptor. ![]() I enjoy everything about it from the return of the primary cast to the hilarious rapport they have. There’s a unique kind of humor, plus, naturally the song covers they sing are of the secular variety, and subject to very few “rules.” Moving past that, it’s safe to say, this sequel lives up to my expectations and then some. Much as I adore these characters and the films, I will say this upfront these movies aren’t for everyone.
