The third installment of the “Pitch Perfect” films has good acting and great music, but falls short with nothing other than high school toilet humor and a story that feels rushed.

“Pitch Perfect 3” will be liked by those who enjoyed the other two movies, because it’s basically the same movie.

There are some good comedic interactions that made the original film a commercial success, but it just feels like they missed an opportunity to close the film franchise on a good note.

The film, written by Mike White, Kay Cannon and directed by Trish Sie, brings us a story that feels like it needed to be develop more and should have been longer than its 94 minute run time.

With that said, there is only so much of that type of comedy anyone can take, so maybe that’s the reason the whole story felt rushed.

The acting is one of the only good things in the film. Anna Kendrick and Rebel Wilson along with Brittany Snow have great chemistry and their comedy plays well off each other. With the exception of DJ Khaled who seemed to be doing his own thing and John Lithgow’s weird Australian accent, the casting and acting in the film was good.

Ruby Rose’s character was a great antagonist in the movie, but eventually underutilized, making the character lose its essence.

Even though the film was set in an international stage, it never actually felt as if you were really there. It seemed as if the Bellas only traveled out twice in the entire film and only to drink coffee and visit a farmers market. At times it was so confusing that one was unsure if they were still in Italy or if they had moved on to France.

The film’s plot seemed like it should have focused on one thing instead of two, either focus on the competition or focus on the story behind Rebel Wilson’s character. Having both plots part of the story made it so that neither got a real resolution, giving the audience only a half of a story.

The film’s end is just a feel good hollywood ending that really shows why there was no need for this third film to be done.

Overall, the film is a good laugh if you’re into sexual and toilet humor, but other than that, maybe the musical aspects of the film will make it more enjoyable. Fans of the series will enjoy this film, but if you’re looking for a laugh with a good story, I’m sure there are better options.
