They're Back and Pitcher Than Ever: Pitch Perfect 2

Saw #PitchPerfect2 today and it was aca-hilarious all around.


Well, they'r back and pitcher than ever. The Bellas are back in this amazing new sequel in Pitch Perfect 2. 

After winning three national championships, the Bellas performed at the Kennedy Center, until a wardrobe malfunction happen when Fat Amy was performing to "Wrecking Ball." It turned into a massive aca-scandal for the Bellas. 

Facing suspension for their incident, they were taken out of their world tour and that they couldn't recruit anyone. This put a real damper with Chloe, but they find away to redeem themselves, by going to the World Championships and winning it. 

Meanwhile Beca gets a call for an internship at a local record company, with so excitement she tries to keep it under wraps with the rest of the Bellas. In somewhat it turns out to be a complete drag but heck that's all internships. 

With the Bellas trying to get back on top, a new student wants to come in and be part of the team. The new member Emily is dying to be a Bellas ever since her mother tells her how exciting it was when she was one. 

As soon as Emily's a member of the group, they took a looked at the team that took their spot in the World Tour, a team from Germany named Das Sound Machine. As each group got to meet, they insult each other but only Beca can't do any insult but more of making complements. 

With what Das Sound Machine could do, lip sync to dub sounds, it kind of gave the Bellas the idea that they need to step it up and do what Das are doing. That doesn't turn out to go the way they hoped. When they tried it in front of a group it wasn't pretty at all. 

To redeem themselves from another disaster, Chloe got everyone to go to camp where a familiar face awaits them to help get back to what the Bellas do best. 

After getting back their charm, Beca and the gang had an idea for a performance that will knock out the Machines. They performed a huge hit from Beyonce "Run the World" but also performed the song "Flashlight" that was one of the most beautiful songs in the movie.   

Overall, I thought Pitch Perfect 2 was an amazingly hilarious film. There was so many one liner jokes, pop culture and even cultural jokes. Not only did Rebel Wilson, Anna Kendrick and Brittney Snow stole the film, Hana Mae Lee, John Michael Higgins and Elizabeth Banks stole a lot too.  And I can't forget to mention how Hallie Steinfeld really brought something to the film and to the group.

I couldn't get enough of the Riff Offs in this movie. Seeing the Green Bay Packers was just mind-blowing of what they brought and how they brought it in the film. And the music, they sang some amazing songs from "We Belong," "My Lovin'," "Shake Your Booty," and "Before He Cheats." 

There were scenes that I couldn't get weepy eyed at like when the group was out on a campfire and they the group sings "Cups" to Beca. That was just heartwarming and also their World Championship performance too. Also but I really do love the song "Flashlight." It's such a great song. The next "Cups" song.


All in all, it's two hours of fun, laughter and their are some emotional scenes in the film as well. It's two hours of non-stop aca-fun. 

Pitch Perfect 2 is in theaters now!!
