Pitch Perfect 2 is a musical-drama film directed by Elizabeth Banks, in which it talks about a group of a capella in the Barden University also known as the "Barden Bellas", more like a continuation of their last film 3 years before this film was official undergo worldwide.


As the teaser from the last film the "Pitch Perfect", we can deduced that they win the ICCA competition from their rival, Treblemakers showing that they performed spectacular in the history of the "Barden Bellas". To the people who watched the film before, will not be confused to what these gals can do. Aubrey graduated and makes Beca their leader, a talented music-masher girl who loves to combine beats altogether to create an extraordinary songs for the Bellas to sing. After all the movie started with an awesome a capella songs from the Bellas performing on behalf of the President’s Birthday. Due to some unexpected problems about the performance, the Bellas dignity was on the line for what had happened on that big and important event.




The important event has undergone the frustration of Cloe for the Bellas reputation was on the loose, one wrong decision leads to the fall of Bellas. Under the emotional feelings of Cloe being a part of this group was really important to her, for it was her only family and will do anything to save it. In regards on the Bellas got snag from their tour, which they introduce another a capella group, another rival of Bellas, the DSM (Das Sound Machine) a German group that follows a very precise sequence of dancing while singing.

The riff-off advanced to a next level were Bellas decided to compete in the World A capella competition and to win championship of it in order to prove their dignity and pride among audiences for the horrible situation they got at the President’s Birthday. As usual, riff-off starts with a genre of songs with a little twist, this was the National A capella Laser Ninja Dragon League composed of 5 groups (The Bellas, DSM, Treblemaker, Tone hangers, and Green Bay packers. The song battle was intense, every genre of music one a capella group falls, although the Bellas against the DSM in the final round was really disappointed because Emily (the new “Bella” Legacy member) introduced her original song that disgraces all the a capella rift-off competition. That leads to an enormous victor of DSM, and leads to frustration and disappointment of the Bellas felt against winning that competition.



The random popping-up of the romantic scenes of Fat Amy and Bumper was exceptionally a secret but audience can depicts to what they’re really doing because it was obvious enough to know it. They’re story was really cute and inspiring, leads to ups and downs of their relationship, but ended up beautifully and majestic for they confess their love for each other.

The finals was really worth to wait, different a capella groups from all over the world were there, giving all they’ve got for this 2015 World A capella Competition. Everbody are excited, including me to show what the great rivals of DSM and Bellas will show to fight their way to championship. The performance of DSM was elegant in a way they focus on their precise positions combined with creative chants of the songs Know What You Did In The Dark (Light Em Up) - Fall Out Boy / All I Do Is Win - DJ Khaled (feat. T-Pain, Ludacris, Snoop Dogg and Rick Ross). But the Barden Bellas’ performance was really Heart-felt majestic, different chants and hymns are used to make every song they sang became the most spectacular, up-rising burst of emotions of different song hits at this year, makes their performance unique to other a capella groups’ performance. They even included Emil’s original songs such as “The Flashlight” which touch every bodies heart on how they beautifully sang it with ignited emotions sprang in every word they sang, combined with sound effects such as chants that makes this music a hit, leading them to win this competition.



I rated this film 10/10, I was really impress of what this film developed compared to their 1st film. The songs and all was executed perfectly with a right amount of tune, pitch, harmony that makes this film a 100% worth to watch, especially to the people who likes music mash-up. I was expecting more in order for this series will be able to create artistic inspiration to the audiences aspiring to be a singer, and also to entertain others with their stories and competition they’ve been through as the BEST BARDEN BELLAS in the history.
