Starring: Anna Kendrick, Brittany Snow, Skylar Astin, Rebel Wilson, Anna Camp and Ben Platt.
The similarities to Glee
are clear; it's a musical comedy, it shows the rise of an unpopular
group of misfits to success and an alumni from the original broadway
cast of Spring Awakening is in one of the main roles (Astin). The
dialogue is often quick witted but sometimes falls flat with Rebel
Wilson improvising to provide the majority of the laughs. The generic
romance at the centre of the narrative is sweet but nothing new, with
the mashups so “mashed” that it is difficult to shake them out
like a polaroid picture. Less Pitch Perfect more pitch predictable.
3/5
