A truly enchanting full-length live-action and computer-generated motion picture based on a 1960s cartoon series that is an all-ages comedic delight with a hidden message.
It all begins when three adorable little talking chipmunks Alvin, Simon and Theodore are happily storing food for the winter in a tree they've made their home. Suddenly their happy little house is cut down and put up in a work office building as a Christmas tree. There the threesome stumble across a music composer named Dave Seville (Jason Lee) who is forever struggling to impress his boss Ian Hawkes (David Cross) who is a monster lurking beneath the surface and achieve success.
When Dave hears the chipmunks' marvellous singing abilities he agrees to let them live with him in his house. This action immediately sets off a chain of outrageously funny events as the mischievous trio turn Dave's life upside down.
This charming hour and a half of nicely-done entertainment will be highly enjoyed by young and old. However, for those intending to buy the DVD it may have lost its sparkle the second time round.
