Movie spotlight
College student Beca knows she does not want to be part of a clique, but that's exactly where she finds herself after arriving at her new school. Thrust in among mean gals, nice gals and just plain weird gals, Beca finds that the only thing they have in common is how well they sing together. She takes the women of the group out of their comfort zone of traditional arrangements and into a world of amazing harmonic combinations in a fight to the top of college music competitions.
Beca, a freshman at Barden University, finds herself unwillingly joining the all-girls acapella group, the Barden Bellas. Initially clashing with the group's traditional style, Beca gradually helps them find their own voice and blend their unique personalities and musical talents. The Bellas then set their sights on winning the highly competitive ICCA national championship, facing off against rival groups.

Truly a cultural staple in queer jukebox comedy cinema. Gratuitously cringe like only a cast of millenials in the early 2010s could endure making a film. It's a movie of its time, for better and for worse. Hate to love her and love to ha...
The best out of the series. The woman against the men. In the biggest singing group competition. Very funny as well.
More entertaining than anticipated. I enjoyed myself watching <em>'Pitch Perfect'</em>, simply put. That's largely thanks to pleasant music choices and a fun cast. The plot isn't anything crazy good but the aforementioned things are done...
A quintessential crowd-pleaser. Exuberant musical numbers and great chemistry between the cast makes this a 'chick flick' everyone can enjoy.
Not sure why this movie has become so famous. It is not a really good comedy with the exception of the jokes by the competition commentators and the story as with any movie of this kind is weak and expectable. Nothing very remarkable ...
A modern cult movie (in a good way, of course). It started a movement of sorts with people posting youtube videos with them singing and rearranging cups. Very powerful!
