Alien at the Movies

It's "Glee" without the instruments & "Step Up" with singers. The Barden Bellas are back for more harmony and hilarity. Disgraced at a Lincoln Center command performance, the girls must redeem themselves at the World A Capella Championship in Denmark. It's more mash ups & face offs with great songs & choreography. All your favorites return like Anna Kendrick & Britney Snow. Rebel Wilson does the heavy comedy lifting. Those politically incorrect announcers are back but Elizabeth Banks takes a back seat because she steps up as producer & director. Hailee Steinfeld is added to the cast as a legacy. Look for some cameos from a political couple, a rapper, and some NFL players. The now famous "Cups" theme from the original makes it into a turning point moment as well as a group patty cake upgrade. This clever sequel is a fun-fun-fun must-see and hysterically awesome. 

Alien gives it 3 ½ "you're my flashlight" stars out of 4.
