MPAA RATING: PG for some mild rude humor
Starring Jason Lee, David Cross, Cameron Richardson, Justin Long, Matthew Gray Gubler, Jesse McCartney, and Jane Lynch
Alvin and the Chipmunks, a global phenomenon to generations of fans, becomes a live action/CGI motion picture event with a contemporary comic sensibility. Songwriter Dave Seville transforms singing chipmunks Alvin, Simon, and Theodore into pop sensations while the out-of-control trio lays waste to Dave's home, wreaks havoc with his career, and turns his once-orderly life upside down. (20th Century Fox)

I loved this flick, it was a entertaining sight that can make any alvin and the chipmunks fan pop...you gotta love this classic, i give it 4 out of 5.

Ended up giving smiles to people's faces but relies on a very weak and predictable plot. Here you may find yourself not just foreseeing the plot but ALSO finishing the characters' dialogs.

THIS IS A GOOD MOVIE!
Linda W. gave it a9:
Totally enjoyable....watched with my two grandchildren and we were totally entertained. Sweet story of becoming a family and the importance of someone caring for you. Highly recommended.
Aaron C. gave it a1:
I am giving this movie a 1. i would've given it a zero but i think it really has the chance of winning the best picture Oscar/ and also the best actor Oscar but not for the human but instead for one of the chipmunks.
Peter J. gave it a1:
This movie was awful. Even my small children were smart enough to know that this was pure garbage and they went outside and played.
Mike G. gave it a5:
I'm getting' tired of the typical Hollywood storyline that was attached to a great movie idea, you know the drill, Dave takes his friends (chipmunks and women) for granted, then reconciles the situation with 10 minutes left in the movie. Also the "love interest" blond seems uppity. This movie is great for kids new to redundant Hollywood scripts, everyone else has seen it already, just without chipmunk "paint".
