    Pitch Perfect 2

    ★★★★½

    It's a guilty pleasure, but I really enjoyed seeing this in a full cinema and laughing and guffawing with the audience.

    It seemed too jam-packed, and I often wondered why a scene was there, but it was fan service done well, and I was a fan.

    So much silly fun....
    ....so much fan service!


    Dont go in trying to be pretentious or pseudo intellectual. go in wanting to see completely unrealistic mechs punching giant monsters in the face.

    This shouts out to so much anime and classical monster films, a point highlighted at the very end of the credits.

    There was a few badly acted character moments which left me wanting them simply to move on, but the glorious action scenes highlighted in every frame why…

    So after a below average Man of steel, I watch this movie I had backed a while ago on Kickstarter....and DAYUMM this surprised the hell out of me in its execution, characters and plot.

    If this was done by a semi-amateur/professional, small independent film maker, then shutdown the big studios and Kickstart me the next DC Universe film.

    This was done supremely well and left me feeling al ot happier after man Of Steel barely met my very low expectations.…

    Well that was complex and left me thinking. Impressed that someone still makes "mainstream" films that require your brain turned on to fully appreciate.

    A lot of confusion, but a movie that will reward a rewatch.
