Whats up all?
I just watched this movie as a friend of mine told me his wife loved this movie and it's very like the new band I'm into(Straight no Chaser). So I figured what the hell I'll rent it from ITunes and watch it on Apple TV.
Well, I hate to admit it but I really enjoyed this movie. It had a little flavor or the new age High School / College thing and the singing was amazing. Barber Shop quartet or Acapella Style. It's very cool either way. They even ended the movie with a song I really liked from the 80's in Breakfast Club "Don't you forget about me" by Simple Minds.

If you dig this style of music , even though it's basically a chick flick , it's worth the watch.

    I haven't seen the movie, but did listen to a lot of Straight no Chaser over the holidays. I really enjoyed their arrangments and humor.

    I loved it. Reminded me a lot of Bring it On, which I thought was another under rated movie. Its good pop corn fun....Fat Amy and the Lilly(the one that whispered all the time) were so funny.

    My wife and I both really enjoyed Pitch Perfect.
    Lots of good laughs and I didn't get bored halfway through like I do most movies she likes. Hehe.

    Just watched this one. Apparently it was in my Netflix queue. I thought it was a great film. I'd say it falls in the genre of feel-good fluff, but it is very well done. Lots of laughs and the music was great too. When Lilly started doing the angels...
