“Pitch Perfect 2” fails to live up to standards set by the first film

The sequel to 2012s ‘Pitch Perfect’ came out on Friday, May 15. The film featured all of the previous cast members from the first one, most famously Anna Kendrick and Rebel Wilson. The movie started with the Barden Bellas in trouble when Fat Amy accidentally shows her private parts to the entire crowd during the performance for the president’s birthday. This causes them to end up in a difficult competition that no American team has even won before. However, before they can do that, they must band together and “find their sound” again. That’s it. That’s the plot. For the record, I loved the first ‘Pitch Perfect.’ It was funny, entertaining, and the songs were wonderful. The writing was great and it kept me engaged the entire movie. Its unnecessary sequel was mediocre at best. The original movie was an amazing piece of film that should have been left alone. The sequel that has insisted on being dragged along behind it is an embarrassment to the entire franchise.

“Orphan Black” is a drama created by Graeme Manson and John Fawcett, and starring Tatiana Maslany. The show airs on BBC, yet is filmed and takes place in Toronto, Canada. “Orphan Black” focuses on the morality of human cloning. This theme is introduced when the protagonist Sarah Manning takes on the identity of a woman she saw commit suicide who looks identical to her. Sarah later finds out the woman is Beth Childs , a police officer, and realizes she is in over her head. Sarah then finds out a truth that will shock her even more: she and Beth are part of a large group of clones.

“American Horror Story” still continues to surprise audiences

'American Horror Story' is unlike anything else on television. Created by Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk, the show has been pushing the boundaries of horror since it started. Each season has different characters and settings, yet (mostly) the same actors. Season one follows an estranged family when they move into the murder house, season two shows the brutality of an insane asylum in the 1960s, season three explores a school for witches, and season three is about a freakshow in the 1950s.
