Summary
Musical comedy starring Anna Kendrick and Skylar Astin. New girl Beca doesn't care about being popular on campus, but her singing voice makes her the centre of attention when she signs up to become part of the college's all-female a cappella group, the Barden Bellas. Determined to outshine them are their male counterparts, the Treblemakers.

Review
A star rating of 3 out of 5.
Karen Krizanovich
This campus comedy is like TV series Glee - only bigger, meaner and funnier. Anna Kendrick plays Beca, a would-be DJ who becomes embroiled in the cut-throat world of university a cappella singing when she joins the Barden Bellas. After a humiliating defeat the previous year under uptight soloist Aubrey (Anna Camp), the troupe revamps itself to go up against male rivals the Treblemakers. With stereotypical characters like Rebel Wilson's Fat Amy, it's perfectly obvious where the story is headed, but the razor-sharp energy and a terrific script make up for a fistful of clichés.
