The Cup Song invaded social networks in 2012 after the arrival on the billboards of Giving the note. The musical comedy starring Anna Kendrick (at that time known mostly for Twilight) returned three years later with Dando note 2: Even higher, which was a disaster for both critics and box office. It seemed that the saga of the Barden Bellas was going to disappear forever, but the young singers will have one last chance starting today with Giving note 3.
The new film, directed by Trish Sie, shows the decadence and resurgence of the Barden Bellas. The film begins with a meeting of the acapella group where the graduates remember better times. Emily (Hailee Steinfeld) continues at Barden University and represents everything the rest of the characters want: to relive the university experience. Throughout history, the girl symbolizes the nostalgia and innocence of a generation that still does not know the cruelty of the world. The girls try to repress their melancholy by returning as a musical group on the USO tour, a tour that seeks to entertain army members displaced in other countries
The narrative structure is divided into three blocks: the first deals with the disappointment of the singers with their post-student life after facing numerous work and personal adversities; in the second, they recover the illusion thanks to their participation in the USO tour, and, finally, there is the grotesque subplot of action starring Amy la Gorda (Rebel Wilson). In the latter, the blonde infiltrates a yacht to save her beautiful sisters from the hands of a white-collar criminal. A plot worthy of being compared with the best James Bond (or, failing that, with his parody Johnny English).
The weight of the plot falls on the best known characters in the saga: Beca, Chloe (Brittany Snow) and Amy, with special emphasis on the role of the latter. Chloe represents fear of the future and the present, while Beca (Kendrick) embodies positivity and the will to move forward. This formula was used in the previous installment, so you can catalog the third part of the saga as the final separation of the first film, where all the singers were divided the protagonism in equal parts.
Apart from leaving aside old characters or using them as a comic resource, some new ones have been added to continue the dynamics of battles and romantic interest. As main antagonist is Calamity (Ruby Rose), whose role could be reminiscent of Bumper (Adam DeVine) or Kommissar (Birgitte Hjort Sørensen) in the previous films.
Giving the note 3 continues with the trend marked by its predecessors, with well-calculated choreography but with excessively emotional musical moments. It is not a musical to use in which songs that lead the plot are introduced, but they are interpreted within the story as part of the concerts of the tour. Maybe that's why the well-known riff-offs (singing duets in which mixes of songs with the same rhythm are created) are unnatural.
