After watching this I must re visit the old classic"Fame".At first I thought I was watching"Glee"meets"Twilght"as the go to college together.After 15 minutes or so I began to "feel"the characters and,well,its NO classic,it was watchable and so although I am clearly NOT the demographic the film is shooting for,the "hook"of singing"accoppia"was enough to make me want to see what happens and I was impressed at the references to"The Breakfast Club",a film also reviewed on this blog.All that said,this 2012 release that runs 112 minutes still is not great nor really original in its storyline.It just comes at it from a different angle,thus the 1 1/2 stars off.Still there ai FA worse out there for a harmless night of musical movie viewing.Thus I recommend it as a diversion when you want some some fluff in your life.B+ level cast but well acted none the less.Trailer URL follows the picture and a IMDB summary below.
The Barden Bellas are a collegiate, all-girls a cappella singing group thriving on female pop songs and their perfect looks. After a disastrous failing at last year's finals, they are forced to regroup. Among the new recruits is freshman Beca, an independent, aspiring DJ with no interest in the college life. But after she meets Jesse, from the rival all-male a cappella group, Beca has a new outlook and takes it upon herself to help the Bellas find their new look and sound and get back into the competition.
