The Bellas return yet again for more mischief and singing to prove themselves and develop a strong sense of self discovery as one.
*side note: I usually don't pick the movies, and one I did was called The Lobster two years ago, and since I've owed the lady friend a bunch of either animal/cartoon-centered ones or quasi-'chick flicks'.
It really wasn't all that bad, and if you've seen The Lobster, you've definitely felt worse after leaving a theater.
The one before that: Forrest Gump and the cooking lady team up to fight Nixon's war on the press in an all too eerily familiar feeling biopic.

While sporting a glorious mane, Liam Neeson realizes that no amount of acting can make up for a bad script, bad dialogue, bad CGI and horrible acting by his co-stars, and decides to ask his buddy George to "go ahead and kill me off so I don't have to be associated with the last two movies in this trilogy".
Saw that with my boys on opening weekend...there was an audible gasp when he spoke his first lines off camera...no one knew he was in the movie yet. Memories!
And because we had trouble deciding WHICH movie to watch that weekend, we left the theater in Ames after that movie and drove to Ankeny, where we watched the grown up Disney kid and the least of the four brothers fighting fires, each other, and Alan Shepard (also on its opening weekend).
I always thought the title of that movie was a euphemism for flatulence.Saw that with my boys on opening weekend...there was an audible gasp when he spoke his first lines off camera...no one knew he was in the movie yet. Memories!
