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 senstations -- while the out-of-control trio lays waste to Dave's home, wreaks havoc with his career, and turns Dave's once-orderly life upside-down.
Even the trailer contains a poop joke, so don't expect high-class humor. Still, the original voices are back for the Chipmunk characters and Jason Lee wasn't that bad in Underdog... although with this you have to start wondering if there's anything the former Kevin Smith star wouldn't do.
