Pitch Perfect made me want to sing and dance, until I realized I'm bad at both.

I actually got a chance to see the funny movie at sawgrass almost two weeks ago, thanks to the preview screening. I can't get the cups song out of my head!

At a glance, Pitch Perfect may seem like someone took the concept of Glee and made it into a movie. Well that initial assumption is wrong because unlike Glee, that features high school kids singing through their everyday problems, the movie centers around a cappella college level competitions between the boys top singing group appropriately called the treblemakers (one of the many puns in the movie) and the girls group called the Bellas(LOL at the fact that Kendrick's first movie was in twilight with that whiney character Bella... )It’s like glee in the sense that they’re singing the musical’s hits, the group has a collections of freaks, geeks and weirdo’s, and there is one obnoxious (but undeniably talented) star who lives and breathes songs that are decades old. 

But unlike Glee, the lead Beca, excellently played by Anna Kendrick (And Can I just say I love the makeup done for her the entire movie?! Bravo!)  reluctantly joins the Bellas after being cornered (Literally) by co-captain Chole, played by Brittany Snow with a flattering red dye job. Beca offers a new take on the old music the Bellas sing, and while everyone else is on board, co-captain Aubrey, played by Anna Camp, insists that traditional songs from the 70s is the way to go. The movie is a funny look inside the cut throat college a cappella world. The Bella’s top rule is not to fraternize with the enemy, which would be the very handsome trebles, (and Beca’s love interest) Jesse, played by Skylar Astin, and the captain of the treblemakers (haha!), Adam DeVine, who also stars in Comedy Central's post college slacker comedy 'Workaholics'

There’s more to the movie than just competition, it touches on issues such as love, trust, restoring a reputation and acceptance, something that both Beca and Aubrey fight for. The movie also features fresh faces, most notably the break out star Rebel Wilson who plays the crass and hilarious Fat Amy. Wilson had a small role in 2011’s bridesmaids. 

The premise is a bit tired, getting the rag tag group of well-meaning a cappella singers ready to compete against the boys group, while battling within their own group. Even though the montage of both groups doing ridiculous, meticulous and just funny workouts last about three minutes, you know there is only one group who will humiliate themselves on stage. one way they keep eachother on their toes is competing in a Riff-Off

 It’s got that adult sense of humor mixed with lame-but-funny puns with America’s top 40 soundtracks. The singing wasn’t auto-tuned and no one lip synched, it was pure talent on the screen. It did considerably good during its limited release in 335 locations nationwide before it’s released all over on Oct. 5^th. It’s a move a studio like universal has never done, but the move proved profitable results with 5.2 million over the weekend.

Some of the songs covered were Kelly Clarkson’s since u been gone, and Rhianna’s Don’t stop the music, along with the mesmerizing mash-up of Bruno Mars' 'Just the way you are' and Nelly's 'Just a dream'. The soundtrack has four and a half stars already on iTunes and is worth the money if anyone is into fun, danceable music.

Overall Pitch Perfect had its genuinely funny moments thanks to mega- scene stealer Rebel Wilson and Anna Kendrick’s sarcasm against Anna Camp’s pristine attitude, which can very well give glee’s Rachel some serious competition.
