Review Date:

Pitch Perfect's Blu-ray impresses with top-tier video and strong DTS-HD audio, even if the film's humor and extras lack depth.

Video: 78

Pitch Perfect's 1080p/AVC-encoded video transfer is exemplary, showcasing vibrant colors, deep blacks, and strong contrast, with excellent detail and no significant compression artifacts or noise. The pristine high-definition rendering maintains sharpness and fidelity, enhancing both bright and dark scenes beautifully.

Audio: 66

Universal's DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 mix delivers dynamic excellence and technical precision during musical performances, creating an enveloping and rich soundstage, although outside of the songs, the mix remains front-heavy with clear dialogue but lacks ambition.

Extra: 53

The 'Pitch Perfect' Blu Ray extras offer two insightful commentaries from Jason Moore, Elizabeth Banks, and Paul Brooks, alongside 16 minutes of wisely cut deleted and extended scenes, 19 minutes of mostly lackluster alternate sequences, 13 minutes of improvised line deliveries, brief in-character interviews, a short EPK featurette, and a fun fan-included music video.

Movie: 50

Pitch Perfect merges sharp humor and catchy a cappella arrangements to deliver a crowd-pleasing musical comedy. Despite moments of derivative plot and uneven character development, the well-cast ensemble and engaging song mashups make it a standout. The Blu-ray offers robust BD-Live features, combining entertainment with innovative technical use.
