Tonight (well, technically last night), I attended a screening and Q&A for Pitch Perfect hosted by the Los Angeles Film School and Grammy U. I went in to the film with very little expectations. I hadn't seen any trailers for the film, or heard too much buzz about it; however, I'm glad I went. It was hilarious! Rebel Wilson is an amazing actress and delivers a great comedic performance as Fat Amy. I walked into the theater knowing that it was a movie about music and a capella groups but expected it to be just a theatrical version of Glee. Not that I'm knocking Glee...I just get turned off when the entertainment industry latches on to an idea or concept and seemingly milks it to death. So, the thought of a movie adaptation of the wildly popular show wasn't exciting. But I found myself laughing out loud throughout the entire film. Plus, the film is set on a college campus and speaks to the theme of new beginnings and the pursuit of your ambitions...so maybe it was just speaking to me a little bit. Lol. But nonetheless...I had a great time and would highly recommend it.
