The new Alvin and the Chipmunks is a movie for adults and children. I fondly remember growing up watching "Alvin and the Chipmunks" on Saturday morning cartoons and listening to a cassette tape my dad had bought featuring the singing chipmunks (I can't recall a single song that was included on that cassette tape).
The actual plot more or less follows the romantic comedy pattern...a bit weird if you think about it, but that's precisely what it is. When their home becomes a Christmas tree for a record company foyer, the Chipmunks re-home themselves with the unwitting Dave, a struggling songwriter whose career is on the skids. Dave meets The Chipmunks and they hate each other at first. Being not house trained the boys make a shambles of David's condo. But soon David discovers the boys can sing! The animation on the chipmunks is terrific, creating the most adorable animated characters since Jack Jack giggled his way through "The Incredibles." All three are quite different but uniquely bonded. Alvin is the cool one, Simon is the smart one and Theodore is, well, the chubby one. It's easy to smile when Theodore shyly asks to sleep with Dave after a nightmare, or the boys jovially sing familiar songs such as "Witch Doctor" and "Funky Town."
I watched it with my two children, ages 7 and 9, and to watch their faces at the right moments - even when I thought the joke was cheap or the gag was too silly - it made things so much more effective to watch my children's eyes light up. Ultimately, you have to approach this movie with a child's eye to really enjoy it. Try to remember your own enjoyment growing up instead of trying to find it again. I thought the first forty minutes of "Alvin and the Chipmunks" was pure entertainment. It reminded me greatly of my childhood and the three chipmunks that I grew up watching.
As a whole, the film was pretty good family entertainment.
