Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaUpon seeing the title, Adam Devine thought that the film was a baseball movie, and thus wasn't prepared to sing a song at his audition. The producers told him to sing any song, and he chose the Full House (1987) theme song. They were impressed and he was hired as the role of Bumper.
- GoofsUpon being picked up by the taxicab, Beca has four black bags/suitcases, plus her black laptop bag placed into the taxicab's trunk. Upon arrival at Barden, she grabs the laptop bag, while a yellow-shirted volunteer unloads the trunk. The bags do not follow her to her dorm, and once in the room, Beca is unpacking boxes and a brown duffel bag.
- Crazy creditsThe Universal logo fanfare is sung a cappella by the Treblemakers. When the 100th anniversary variation of the current logo completes, they cut to the opening scene.

Featured review
That I loved so much. I scored free tickets to a Denver Screening awhile back and was just going to have my wife and 13 year old daughter go , but I watched the trailer and really thought Anna Kendrick was terrific in 50/50 and very good in Up in the Air so I thought, what the heck, I'm going too. Was I glad that I did. I laughed like crazy and loved the a capella singing. This film is really raunchy and just skirts around an R rating several times, but it is just so fun.
I am pretty confident that it is going to be the surprise box office hit of the fall and it is so much better than the films that it is bound to be compared to like Mean Girls, Bring it On, and even Bridesmaids.
Speaking of Bridesmaids Rebel Wilson almost steals the show with every scene that she is involved with being hilarious, and in a lesser movie her scenes most certainly would be worth paying the price of admission alone, but there are so many other talents involved. Elizabeth Banks has never been funnier. Skylar Astin as the love interest is also terrific though he needs to change his name, because for me the name Skylar brings only one thing to mind and she is married to Walter White.
This is no Oscar Winner, I am certain that I will see a dozen or so better movies this year, but none will having me laughing and smiling as much.
