Umm… I didn’t know if I should have just fallen asleep and dreamed of something scary or actually stay awake through something soooo gruelingly horrible!!! It’s one of those films where you know what the next scene is going to be about, THIRTY SECONDS into the start of darn thing!!!
This remake of a Japanese movie pretty much brutalized its original version. I mean a handful of people receiving a voice-mail from oneself in the near future could have been quite the thriller. However, the storyline was not the greatest and the acting was just okay… I mean it wasn’t as bad as terrible!!! At least I can give the audio and visual effects a little bit of credit, since it does fit the millennium standards. I just don’t think they were used to their full potential…
… there pretty much was no beginning to the movie and no climax. However, there was an end and trust me was I ever happy it ended… The entire time I thought to myself… “When is the stink bomb gonna end?” I honestly think the best part of the movie was at the end, where I was able to see the credits!!!!
I give this movie 1 popcorn out of a possible 5!
Funny…Cute…and Cool!!! Everything that Alvin and the Chipmunks should be! Before even seeing it, I was kind of skeptical only because I was afraid that the movie would not live up to the cartoons I watched as a child. Oh boy was I proven wrong. This movie made me laugh and want to get out of my seat and dance and sing along at the same time!!!
It has a great story line with an amazing soundtrack and great choreography to keep me entertained. The effects where amazing! I mean the detail of the chipmunks were outstanding… And the audio effects just added a nice kiss of a touch to finish off the masterpiece!!!
Come on now, with Alvin, Simon and Theodore always finding a way to get into some sort of mischief, yet they always seem to cover their backs… there is bound to be plenty of entertainment to keep you glued to your screen!!!
However, the only thing I disagree with in the entire movie is just Jason Lee’s character (David Seville) whenever he yells “ALVIN!!!!” It’s just not the same as the cartoon character. Other than that, I just can’t complain!!!
This movie is a great family movie as well as something to watch with your friends or your girlfriend/boyfriend. This movie is a definite rent/purchase. It is highly recommended!!!!
Oh and the soundtrack is a definite purchase, too!!!
This movie deserves a definite 5 out of a possible 5 popcorns!
