The new Chip ‘N Dale: Rescue Rangers movie is a delightful, zippy and genuinely fun thing Read full review

Frank Scheck

This hilariously meta reboot — excuse me, comeback — is everything the recent Space Jam sequel desperately attempted but failed to be. Premiering exclusively on Disney+, it’s the funniest movie of the year so far, either animated or live-action. Read full review

It makes for a creative, clever watch, though one that seems exclusively imagined to cater to the series’ older fans and otherwise mature audiences. Read full review

Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers isn't the first movie to do what it's doing -- with live-action and animation sharing the screen, helping nurture a meta-comedy adventure -- but it's damn fun and one of the cleverest uses of elder pop culture properties in a while. Read full review

Take away the cameos—in the recording booth, and animated on-screen—and you get something that's a little too close to the same old junk. Read full review

It’s not quite on par with Who Framed Roger Rabbit?, the film it undoubtedly wants to be likened to, but it’s infinitely better than it had any right to be. Read full review

Just because you can shove a bunch of IPs together, should you? Especially when the motivation is a 90-minute joke about beloved TV series, with a lot of cheese-as-cocaine gags. Who is it for? People who still laugh at uncanny valley jokes. For those that don't, no reason to worry, because most of the references will be explained to you. Read full review

Not sure what everyone’s deal is here, but this movie was awesome. I’m a 80’s kid and seeing all the cameos was insane.

Watching Chip and Dale was very enjoyable and I highly recommend it.

Made me chuckle more then once!

Hilarious script hilarious cast and above all great time.

10/10.

This is really the best thing I've seen in 2022. Correct restart. The story is shown from a different angle and therefore looks organic and interesting. Good humor and irony. Thanks!

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The blend of animation styles into real life is fantastic and all the characters are incredibly entertaining. There are a number of great background jokes all around the movie. It should not be lost on viewers however that Disney made a movie where the bad guy is a bootlegger who violates copyright law.… Expand

This is the most impressive animation/live action - hybrid yet, there are tons of great moments, and the movie has its heart in the right place.

It is a massive nostalgia trip filled with tons of visual memberberries and very light on substance. Ugly Sonic was awesome. It's a rollercoaster of boredom and references. I have a lot of issues with the animation, it looks bad most of the time. The decision to use all CGI animation is understandable, but it looks cheap and so many characters don't interact with the world well at all. The casting choices were kinda off as well, but I was happy to hear Gadget's voice actor was still the fantastic Tress MacNeille.… Expand

Terrible storyline and special CGI effects as well as portraying Disney’s character version of Peter Pan as the main antagonist who is behind all this so called bootlegging operation in the film.… Expand
