alvin and the chipmunks

Published Dec 24, 2007

This movie was adorable. If you have young children who have yet to be introduced to the chipmunk tunes, you have to take them to see this movie.

I've been a fan for a long time and listening to Alvin, Simon and Theodore croon their classic "Christmas Cheer" tune, took me way back.

But their style has been updated, and these guys definitely have a new sound. It fits right in with today's popular music with upbeat tempos and lots of bass. 

The humans don't disappoint either.

Jason Lee did a terrific job as the caring patriarch, Dave. He was very believeable and it was hard to imagine that there may not have been actual chipmunks in the scenes with him. And David Cross was pretty funny as the conniving record label executive, Ian. 

All in all, it's a good movie. See it for what it is and have fun.

You'll end up looking for the songs on itunes when you get home.

Trust me.

My boys (9 and 14) want to see it. But, with all that was spent so far, that may have to wait till I get paid again...at the end of Jan.

I hear you. We went to the MATINEE yesterday, and I don't have to pay for the 2-year-old.

Has Milky seen this????

LOL at Sue!

Golo Editor,

Thanks for reminding me of this classic.

Merry Christmas.

This was SOOO Good. My husband and I enjoyed it as much as the kids did! My kids are 6 & 7 we are in our 40's.. and ALL loved it.. A must see for every age!!

We liked it enough to buy it on dvd. =)

Kids 5 and 3 loved/liked it, so we gotta buy it. Figures, hubby also was in the love catagory, first time he was telling me to go by a dvd.

One of those films that brings the family together! We all enjoyed it tremendously.

I saw some clips on youtube and saw the previews... I liked it... I wanna see more
