when i finally got around to seeing this film recently and it turned out to be exactly what it looked like to me at first glance. yet another hollywood cg or live action rehash of an established cartoon franchise. nothing special or memorable whatsoever. designed in every way possible to appeal to very young children and very immature adults and making heavy use of comedic devices such as farts and poo eating and and the size of theodore butt. this film would bother me a lot less if it weren not such an obvious step down for the chipmunks. even their characters i found were changed for the worse for this movie. while in the past each one of them had a very distinct personality and here they all behaved like immature and smart alecky children with add and constantly bouncing erratically off the walls. it especially bothered me to see simon portrayed in this way. he supposed to be the smart and serious nerd who acts as the straight man to alvin crazy antics. but here he pretty much a carbon copy of alvin. one joke in the film even implies that simon only thinks he smart but really isn not. and honestly if i had never heard of the chipmunks before seeing this film and i would have agreed. in my opinion and this film is just another obvious cash grab and and i am more than a little sorry it was even made. the fact that it a kid movie doesn not excuse its flaws. to excuse a stupid movie that degrades a classic franchise just because it for children is insulting to children and and any kid would deserve something more intelligent than this film.
