Certainly the choreography is way over the top of other championship a cappella teams on You Tube. You may be reminded of a Broadway musical. And it must be said that the Bellas are a first-rate group, with choreography so crisp that Bob Fosse couldn't have drilled them to move more precisely. Still, Anna Kendrick is adorable, a young version of the angelic Marisa Tomei. what? Broadcasting? Talking out loud?Īnother inexplicable character is Lilly (Hana Mae Lee), a shy Asian girl who cannot sing or even speak loudly enough for anyone to hear her.

Soon she finds herself up against Aubrey ( Anna Camp), the group leader who has rigid opinions about their performances.Īnother new recruit is Fat Amy ( Rebel Wilson), who explains she calls herself that because she knows that's what people call her behind her back. Well, at least it's an afterschool activity. And not just ordinary vomiting, but Movie Projectile Vomiting, which in its velocity and gallons of content resembles an attack by an alien.īeca is recruited into the Bellas by its star, Chloe ( Brittany Snow), while they are both naked in a shower, which makes this more intriguing than your average a cappella recruitment. There is also a female group, the Bellas, although they're under a cloud after their lead singer suffered an unfortunate attack of vomiting in the national finals.
