Overview

The Bellas are back, and they are better than ever. After being humiliated in front of none other than the President of the United States of America, the Bellas are taken out of the Aca-Circuit. In order to clear their name, and regain their status, the Bellas take on a seemingly impossible task: winning an international competition no American team has ever won. In order to accomplish this monumental task, they need to strengthen the bonds of friendship and sisterhood and blow away the competition with their amazing aca-magic! With all new friends and old rivals tagging along for the trip, the Bellas can hopefully accomplish their dreams.

Viewing Notes

Very soft “7” out of 10 for me. Many great moments (the singing sequences) strung together with a very worn thread. Almost everything was flat between those moments. I did like the recording studio bits yet that entire side plot felt so shoehorned into the movie. I’d only revisit the performances but not the movie (unlike the first film).

The underground battle should be an entire movie.

Elizabeth Banks did a fine job directly a mediocre script with a lot of unfunny lines.
