Families come in many different shapes and sizes, but few humans consider rodents members of the family.Dave Seville (Jason Lee) is no exception, so when this flailing musician finds three young talking chipmunks gorging themselves in his kitchen cupboards, Dave is quick to question his sanity and then toss the offending chipmunks outside into the rain and restore order.When Dave hears the chipmunks singing outside his window, he realizes that that unusual trio might just be the world's next vocal sensation and he strikes a bargain with them--the chipmunks can stay with him if they sing his songs.While chipmunks Alvin (Justin Long), Theodore (Jesse McCartney), and Simon (Matthew Gray Gubler) quickly begin to see Dave as a father figure, it's strictly a business arrangement for Dave and he maintains an appropriate emotional distance.Dave's frustration with the chipmunks mounts as they unwittingly wreak havoc on his personal life, but when Dave's old friend and record label mogul Ian (David Cross) begins to exploit the chipmunks for personal gain, Dave suddenly realizes what an important part of his life, and indeed his family, the three chipmunks have become.Hilarity reins in this live action/CGI comedy with many memorable scenes--think chipmunks showering in the dishwasher, riding in remote control planes, and bouncing off the walls under the influence of a serious caffeine buzz.Catchy Chipmunks' songs both new and old promise to lodge themselves in the minds of viewers long after the credits roll and even those none-too-enchanted with the premise of singing chipmunks can't help but be entertained by this comical film. (Ages 6 and older with parental guidance due to mild rude humor) --Tami Horiuchi

Average Rating: out of 5 stars
Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - PARENTS, YOUR KIDS WOULD LOVE THIS MOVIE
I loved the Chipmunks when I was little. Now I am 29 and have two kids of my own and they loved this new and improved version of the chipmunks as well. It's nice to see some values never change. This movie is hilarious and it's a must have for any family with little ones. Watch this movie and you will laugh the whole way through.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Love those little chipmunks!
The movie was funnier than I thought it would be. I loved hearing those little chipmunks sing and they looked so real that I began to think I could go out and get our own chipmunk that hangs out at front door to come in and sing too. It was hilarious watching Jason Lee make their little costumes for them and try to teach them right from wrong. The tree the chipmunks lived in was cut down and hauled into a big city and the little guys had to hid out in Jason's basket to get out of building. When they ... Read More

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Way better than expected
I just knew this movie was going to be bad. Everytime they take a cartoon from back in the day and try to turn it into a movie its usually horrible (Dudley Do-Right, The Flintstones, Rocky and Bullwinkle, Garfield) so needless to say my expectations for this movie were quite low.....BOY WAS I SURPRISED! Watched it with my daughter and I loved probably more than she did. Simply put....the movie is good. Its a film you can watch with your kids that you'll actually enjoy.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Very cute movie
This a a very warm loving movie.It is great for the family and kids.

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - KIDS WILL LOVE IT AND ADULTS CAN ENJOY IT!
I was very skeptical about this film watching the trailers for it, but I must admit it's cute with a good message for kids. The Chipmunks steal the show and Jason Lee has the classic "AAAAALVIN" scream down pat! Hey let's faces it, Chipmunks talk funny and these animated critters are just so darn cute! It's a pretty basic story, but the cast and FX make this harmless movie fun. The kids should really like this one and I would bump the rating up a notch for them.
