Reviews & comments
Flicks, Dominic Corry
flicksIn attempting a minor reinvention for its third outing, the Pitch Perfect franchise introduces action thriller elements, international locations and DJ Khaled (playing himself, terribly), but is once again driven forward by the considerable charm of its principal cast and their irresistible musical mash-ups.
Variety
pressThe movie is bubbly, it's fast, it's hella synthetic-clever, and it's an avid showcase for the personalities of its stars...
Total Film
pressThis last (?) encore feels a little tired, but fans will still feel the urge to raise their lighters/glowing phones.
Time Out
pressThe movie is best when it's focused on the music (prepare to hear the dorkiest version of "Toxic" more times than is healthy), not the silly subplots that have a way of sprouting up around third chapters.
The New York Times
pressWith a plot as unfocused as its freshly graduated characters, the shaggy "Pitch Perfect 3" gets by on karaoke logic: What makes for a good time isn't the song you sing, but the company you keep.
The Guardian
pressIt looks like these performers are genuinely enjoying themselves, and it's infectious. Despite the preposterous escapades and the self-destructive satire, at the end of it all, there's something real left standing.
Stuff
pressPitch Perfect 3 is not exactly the epitome of 21st century, post-Weinstein, feminist cinema.
Los Angeles Times
pressA coarse, ugly, pointlessly action-packed reminder that every modestly sharp and amusing property must eventually be converted, by the commercial logic of Hollywood, into a soul-killing cash grab.
Hollywood Reporter
pressWhatever charms the first two movies possessed (and they were considerable thanks to the talented and appealing cast) have been thoroughly lost in this soulless installment.
