Kiddie friendly fun
This is exactly what you would expect of a "Chipmunk" film. Lots of hilarious slapstick humour, silly, but predictable storyline, plus the enigmatic, if somewhat over-egged Chipmunk voices.

Storyline, of this mixed real film and CGI, is basically of an aspiring songwriter, struggling to write any kind of song, which is where Alvin, Theodore and Simon come in. From there the hilarities start and the predictable plot unwinds.

Not really for "adults", but for all kids everywhere, this is a great film. We put it on in the car for the kids whilst we were driving on holiday, and there was blissful peace from the back, apart from the regular bouts of laughter.


A Delightful Tale, and Great Music Too!
"Alvin and the Chipmunks" is a delightful tale of three singing kids who happen to be chipmunks. Its entertaining story is woven into a commentary about the exploitation of child stars. Whether you are an original Chipmunks fan, like me, or a new one, like my daughter, the Chipmunks' music and a delightful story will be a treat for anyone.

Chiptastic!!!
I was a huge fan of The Cipmunks as a child and I was worried that the film would be a real dissapointment. I was so wrong! This film is fantastic the chipmunks are so cute and funny. Jason Lee is perfect as Dave Seville and all of the classic songs are there. This is a funny, heartwarming and cool film, enjoy!

Strictly for Young Kids
The furry cute and fun chipmunks should hold the attention of younger kids for the duration, but don't expect anyone over 10 to be anything but bored with this "by the numbers" film. There are a few entertaining segments in the first half of the film but the second half is predictable and tedious. The comedy has been copied from other films and the acting is unremarkable. How it gets to be a "headline" film I don't know - there is nothing new here, but, as I say, it should keep younger children quiet for a while.

Aww so cute!
This is a really nice film, it's quite far fetched (obviously!) but the characters & chipmunks are just so likeable, especially Theadore! I'm 24 and Alvin & the chipmunks was on in my era, it lived up to all expectations, I loved it!!!
