Pitch perfect is a film about Beca a freshman who doesn't really want to be in university but wants to go to LA and become a big time DJ. Her father who is also a lecturer at the uni makes her a deal that if she gives uni a year and makes an effort to join a group and make friends then he will pay for her to go to LA. So Beca joins the Bella's an all girl singing Capella group, and they try out for a competition with fellow group the treblemakers. There are some great songs, a little bit of romance and really hilarious parts. Anna Kendrick who plays Becca who you may also know from Twilight and what to expect when you are expecting captures the screen and has an amazing voice she is fast becoming a rising star. Also starring along side her is Brittany Snow, Skylar Astin who is gorgeous and he has an amazing voice and the hilarious Rebel Wilson who seems to bring amazing humour to any film she is in.
The soundtrack is great I managed to get it a few days after watching the film and I love it, it has a few songs missing that I feel should have been on there but it is still worth a listen. So if you haven't seen this film check it out!
The Impossible is based on a family that survived the 2004 South Asia tsunami which claimed thousands of lives. This stars Ewan McGregor and Naomi Watts who are spending their Christmas break in a newly opened seafront hotel resort with their three children. On boxing day disaster strikes and while they are swimming in the pool they are caught up in the wave and they get separated. Throughout the film you are shown the horrors of what people experienced and witnessed and I cried though most of the film because you are hoping and praying that they all survive and make it back to each other. All of the actors in this film where fantastic even the younger stars who played the children were great. If you are thinking of going make sure you take a hankie.
