La Note parfaite 2

I'm just saying, the fact that the summary says, "performance at Lincoln Center" yet it's mentioned multiple times in the movie as the "Kennedy Center"really disappoints me in the quality of summary for this site - but hey at least both are president names. Yes, I'm picky.

The movie was entertaining - got a few good laughs. Again as with most sequels, it doesn't quite live up to nor exceed that of the previous PP.

Great characters, and further development of them which I am always a fan of in movie sequels. As a young adult, I don't necessarily enjoy certain jokes or aims of humour that come off as immature; I realise they are aiming for a wider range of consumers though. Worth a watch definitely!

When Pitch Perfect arrived back in 2012, it was considered a reasonable critical and commercial success - $65 million box office from a $17 million budget was nothing for Hollywood execs to be over-thrilled about but profitable enough to be thought of as a win. Then in the years following a combination of DVD rentals, sales and downloads as well as fantastic word of mouth turned Pitch Perfect into a guilty pleasure/cult classic – a chick flick that appeals to both sexes with a feel good factor, quotable dialogue and a soundtrack good enough to sing along to. Fans were crying out for a sequel and therefore in true Hollywood tradition, an encore has now arrived. Whilst Pitch Perfect 2 doesn't quite hit the same heights of the original, it doesn't disappoint.

Set three years later, the Bellas, led by Beca (Anna Kendrick) are at the top of their game. Three time national Champions and now performing in front of the President of the United States. After an ill-fated Miley Cyrus-like act by Fat Amy (Aussie actress Rebel Wilson) causes the whole world to see her private parts, the Bellas are humiliated and banned from performing in the National Championships. Seemingly back at square one, their only road to redemption is to win the World Championships – a tournament that no American a capella group has ever won. Faced against the terrifying but efficient German group Das Sound Machine, the odds are once again stacked against the Bellas and, just like before, they return to being underdogs.

Thankfully there is more plot for the audience to be involved with including Beca's internship at a recording studio as she follows her dream to become a music producer, although it's proving harder than she thought. Fat Amy gets her time in the spotlight in a will she/won't she love story. New character Emily, (Hailee Stanfield) is also a welcome addition as the newest member of the Bellas and contributes immensely as the group bond and are forced to re- discover who they are.

Although Pitch Perfect 2 is more or less a repeat of the first movie, there are plenty laughs to be had throughout and is equally as funny as the original. The majority of the comedy is centred around Kendrick, Wilson and Brittany Snow and, whilst the rest of the group are practically invisible at times, the one-liners are shared out amongst them. The supporting cast are also as reliable and as funny as ever. The inevitable musical climax is good enough for the audience to stand up and cheer in support of the Bellas.

It's a guarantee that Pitch Perfect 2 will be more successful than the original and talk of a three-quel will no doubt arise, however if this is to be the Bella's last performance, it's a worthwhile hit to finish on.

So i went to see this movie with my friends, four guys including me watching this movie in a cinema full with girls. Of course we're straight lol. This movie is bigger than the first one in every aspects which is good considering that the premise is now known worldwide. So they decided to make it grand, with high budget and it has everything but a good storyline compared to the first one.

No it's not a bad film. It's funnier, and you'll not find any dull moment throughout the movie. Fat Amy got more screening time in this film and just by knowing that you know what to expect cause she's so funny. The new face in Barden Bella also good. The only setback is the storyline. This time, i feel like watching a so cliché Hollywood popcorn movie storyline. They just 'do it' according to standard formula.

I don't know about how much the first pitch perfect collects in your country but here in Malaysia, its actually not a total hit in cinema. But, it became a must watch movie by teenagers when DVD and bluray release has came out as people starting to realized about how good this movie is and start to spread it mouth to mouth. All because it's a unique film, fresh musical film with a great storyline and talented anna kendrick in it. But in the second one, anna's role become smaller and at one time she doesn't seems capable to lead Barden Bella and looks clueless on what to do. That's so not Beca ! Its like she is a different person in this film.

But, like i said, one thing for sure is this film is totally funnier than the first one. The joke is everywhere and it depends on whether you got it or not. For example, one scene with Snoop Dogg in it, i find only me and my guy friends are laughing. I think most of the female didn't find it funny but for us, it was funny as hell watching Snoop Dogg singing a Christmas song. Okay lets not spoil it you better watch it yourself.

Oh ya, this film has after credit scene and you better wait for it.

Let me begin by saying; I loved the first Pitch Perfect, it was funny, smart, catchy and touching, as for the second, it's OK. Here's a pros and cons list of the sequel; Pros; Rebel Wilson is always funny, the songs picked for the movie, Hailee Steinfeld was a strong edition to the cast, and of course, Keegan Michael Key. Key from Key & Peele is arguably the best part of the movie.

Cons- some offensive jokes that didn't hit the proper notes, I felt that Adam Devine wasn't as strong as he could've been in this one, and this is coming from someone who's a fan. Overall it is very enjoyable, but not as good as the original.

The three-time champs Barden Bellas has an embarrassing incident when Fat Amy (Rebel Wilson) flashes the audience during a performance for the President. They face punishment and replaced on the tour by the German Das Sound Machine. Beca (Anna Kendrick) starts an internship with a record producer (Keegan-Michael Key) keeping it a secret from the Bellas. Chloe (Brittany Snow) is more driven than ever before. Emily Junk (Hailee Steinfeld) is a legacy and joins the group. They vow to win the World Championship to regain their standing.

I really like the first movie. The girls are lovable. Their friendship is charming. There is just the right amount of humor. This one has made a few changes. Adding Hailee Steinfeld is nice. Elizabeth Banks' directing skills are functional. The girls remain charming. I personally like Rebel Wilson although there may be too much of her in this one. The problem is that the humor seems dumber. I don't mean it's simply broader and more coarse. I mean it seems stupider and less well written. The whole movie feels like a step down.
