People have been really harsh on this film but I think kids will enjoy it. While this might be too childish for adults, and the plot is very standard.

While this might be too childish for adults, and the plot is very standard. Don't expect too much from the film because it's just the same as before. It's better than the third alvin and the chipmunks movie but the film didn't have much singing and was just bad guy vs. chipmunks, which wasn't too bad.… Expand

It's a kids movie not a competitor for the oscars. Alvin n the chipmunks is a modern classic and this is a great fun stress free watch. Put on a smile and an open mind and go enjoy this! My only negative comment is that I wish they had included the original chipmunks song! Alvin Simon Theodore!!… Expand

The Road Chip doesn't redefine children's entertainment. It's a fairly standard setup with a very familiar plot and moral themes of family. It may be rather generic, but at least it doesn't spend a lot of time shoving a lot of pop cultureThe Road Chip doesn't redefine children's entertainment. It's a fairly standard setup with a very familiar plot and moral themes of family. It may be rather generic, but at least it doesn't spend a lot of time shoving a lot of pop culture down the kid's throats.

The musical numbers are still there accompanied by a lot of dancing. However there aren't as many as the previous movies had, so in that area the movie is mercifully toned down. The focus just really is on the laughs and story.

Yes, the humor is juvenile as all get out. However outside of some questionable Mardi Gras antics, it's all completely harmless. The type of movie you can sit the kids in front of and not have to worry about what they're hearing or seeing. Depending on your tolerance for humor aimed at young children, you may even be able to watch it with them.

If you and/or your children didn't enjoy any of the previous Chipmunk movies, then don't expect this one to change that. It does tone down on a lot of the more obnoxious or annoying elements found in some of the previous films, but for the most part it's still very much a Chipmunks movie. It's rather disposable children's entertainment. Perfect for a rental or something to keep the kids busy for a bit. It's cute, sweet, and fairly energetic. A decent movie for the young children in your house. Not all parents may like it, but it's not really for them anyway. It sets out to entertain kids and I believe it will do just that.

I've seen Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Road Chip, and I swear, it's one of the most underrated movies of all time; boasting a fast and energetic pace that will keep its audiences hooked until the very end more so than the previous AlvinI've seen Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Road Chip, and I swear, it's one of the most underrated movies of all time; boasting a fast and energetic pace that will keep its audiences hooked until the very end more so than the previous Alvin movies, this is definitely worth watching! There are a handful of touchy and thoughtful moments, with the ending making me tear up quite a bit. The Chipmunks and the Chipettes also look significantly better, with brighter colors working in their favor. As for the laughs, they are both numerous and harmless, so there's no reason to hate the chipmunks in the first place. The songs are catchy, and some of them stand out a lot! All in all, I feel that the Alvin movies greatly benefit from having a fast pace, so the creators should keep up with what they excel at. However, one small problem I have with this movie is that the Chipettes aren't shown all that much, which is understandable, but I do hope they are more involved with the Chipmunks in the future films. They've been around since The Squeakquel, so they should also be popping up on the theatrical release posters. I suppose it's a little bit of a nit-pick, but I would like to see some more sweet-talk between them because it's SO cute. Other than that, I absolutely loved this movie, and I recommend it to anyone and everyone. To top this review off, I'm already very excited for the next movie; maybe the Chipmunks and the Chipettes should plan to go on a world tour together for the fifth film, similar to what the Chipmunks did in the first one?… Expand

Honestly this movie confuses me. It was so on track to be a step up from the last three and but just when it starts getting really genuinely good they throw in a cheap fart gag. That said it is far from the terrible movie it is being paintedHonestly this movie confuses me. It was so on track to be a step up from the last three and but just when it starts getting really genuinely good they throw in a cheap fart gag. That said it is far from the terrible movie it is being painted out to be. If you have kids or grew up with the chipmunks yourself you shouldn't be too disappointed with this. The original material was far from art in itself so set the bar low and go enjoy a solid family movie with pretty shocking and wholeheartedly funny moments (the Mardi Gras and bar scenes especially).
To summarise. Not the best of the live action/cg chipmunks movies but not as bad as its made out.… Expand

I was bored but my 10 year old and 7 year old were both laughing out loud and dancing and singing along. Sometimes the movie is just for the kids and this one was that.

Really enjoyed this film because of the family message in not only this film but all of these films. I hate the haters because they don't give a crud about family bonding or messages in these films at all. all the haters and critics give aReally enjoyed this film because of the family message in not only this film but all of these films. I hate the haters because they don't give a crud about family bonding or messages in these films at all. all the haters and critics give a crud about is the so called "Terrible CGI" and the "ruining of childhood". if it was that bad to you, why ask for it, then hate on it? People should really stop complaining and hating and just look at the good parts of the film, especially the family bond. It breaks my heart to know that people ignore these heartwarming family moments, and only watch it to make the people who made this feel like idiots. to be honest, I don't think the CGI was perfect! it still kept that cute, furry chipmunk look. also, the ruining of childhood thing is a lie, because it's still the chipmunks, they just changed the looks, voices, and made up not one, but 4 amazing story lines that all line up with the family bond. Guys, you should really lighten up and pay more attention to the good parts of the film instead of bashing out on it when you asked for this to be made. for those creators of these 4 films, I give you my support, and continue to love the chipmunks, no matter how old I am and no matter how much people judge. make a 5th film, and I'll be the first one in the theaters. I heart the chipmunks and the chipettes, and I kill the haters.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. at the beginning long after it is like a rise and fall, at the end it rises a little.
(WELL: the music feels. The comedy is very good and varied.

(DETAILS: The characters are well formed physically and facially, although I know that the girls are missing too many breasts, you can see a little of the bust and they look more realistic and yes, they look a little more mature, (Miles) I thought it was a boring character. Later I thought there was a cat locked up here because when he walked with the protagonists he walked a little slow with a little sadness on his face, I don't know if he acts well without realizing it. girls don't appear much in the movie but if they didn't notice it during the movie it gives us that almost profound loneliness of being without them when we get to them it's like being home again but when Brittany looks and touches her shoulder ah alvin, now that I realize they traveled not because of Dave, but because of the girls that Alvin traveled for Brittany, that's why Brit looked at him that loving way.

(BAD: James Suggs is the worst villain and cannot pass ah lan Hawke, he will always be the best and most beloved of all.

(Ideas: I would like the following sequel to directly address the love between the 6 characters, in addition to the fact that they sing and dance. Another would be a world tour that would be more extravagant with Russian and Latin American actors. Another is first not for Kids, it would be for a younger group set on Halloween. The main character is Brittany. The middle school is Jeanette Brit. He meets a student.
I mean, overall, Brittany is bitten by a wolf who turns out to be the same girl Brit knew. That's what I mean.
it's like (alvin and the chipmunks meet the werewolf) but instead of theodore brittany. and obviously Britain will become a wolf but in a somewhat explicit way.… Expand
