PITCH PERFECT 2-Too Funny, A Grand Slam Hit

Spin-off sequels seem to be hitting them out of the park.  PITCH PERFECT 2, dir. & starring Elizabeth  Banks is a perfect example where 2 is better than 1.  Most of the original cast are back:  Anna Kendrick, Rebel Wilson and John Michael.  Michael & Banks redux bantering commentators garner the biggest laughs that zing by at 90 miles an hour. This comic pairing should go down in comedy history for their hilarious, zany & politically imperfect remarks.  Adding extra knock-out star power is Key of the comedy team Key & Peele, Snoop Dog brings his singing chops and Acad. Award Nom. Hailee Steineld is the charming new member of the singing group.  Face it, the girls couldn't pass for college students in the original; graduation is past due.  Surprise cameos by Green Bay Packers scores big time.  The singing/dancing numbers are GLEEful and winning.  Perhaps there may be too much  singing but who cares?  PITCH PERFECT 2 has you laughing & feeling perfectly happy.
