It's annoying garbage that has a weak plot. When I call something weak, I don't mean that it's bad neccesarily. Sadly, the execution and humor f*cking ruin the movie.

Alvin and the Chipmunks starts out alright, but then, everything goes down the toilet. Chipmunks as pop stars? Obnoxious protagonists?

David Cross is the only thing keeping this bad movie from eternal damnation.

The ending of the film had me resting my eyes, if you'll pardon a metaphor. The animation is nothing to point out, the story is beyond unfathomable and stupid, and the voices are just annoying.

The trio of chipmunks are cute, but any remaining fondness of them will be diminished by the end of this movie. Sadly, this movie, well, sucked.

Sadly, this movie, well, sucked. The acting was horrible --even more than the atrocious script-- and eventually the chipmunks got annoying to put up with anymore. I have to admit that the movie started out pretty good though, and that's the reason for the 3 instead of 0 stars. Also, I can't get the sound of Jason Lee screaming "ALVIN!" out of my head, because that's about the only line from the movie that you will remember.… Expand

Yep, this was pretty bad. Though the chipmunks themselves are simply adorable, this movie is disastrously hampered by a god-awful attempt at a successful sense of humor and underwritten characters. Strictly for the kiddies.

Alvin e os Esquilos é péssimo. Só algumas partes que se salvam. História tosca, humor tosco. Sem mais. Acho que os produtores e diretores deviam ter mais criatividade se querem criar um filme desse tipo.

I think we all know what to expected this movie to be. It was to be a movie for the kids to watch before they will realize that this movie is stupid, kidish and dumb.

Não sei como eu já gostei desse filme. Horrível ao extremo! Minha nossa, a história é tão tosca que chega a um nível que fica insuportável ver o filme até o fim. Salvo apenas... sei lá, acho que nada.

It's just trying to be a movie for kids huh? And because kids can watch it, we shouldn't complain huh? Ok, let's say I made a movie that was just 90 minutes of footage looking at a wall.

Probably the most irritating film created aimed at children that's ever been created. Until the next one that is. I guess there's some insane live action performances to keep you from commiting suicide and freaking out your kids while watching this.

Ended up giving smiles to people's faces but relies on a very weak and predictable plot. Here you may find yourself not just foreseeing the plot but ALSO finishing the characters' dialogs.

Alvin chipmunks us into a daring entertaining surprise that is so dumb, it doesn't have any brain, and the heart is so soulless, I hate it, how can anyone love stupidity right from the get-go.

This movie was awful. Even my small children were smart enough to know that this was pure garbage and they went outside and played.

Alvin and the Chipmunks, even the name sounds stupid. Who would waste their time or their money to go watch the dumbest film of the century. Seriously, the only attraction to this film is the voice of the chipmunks, which sounds kind of Alvin and the Chipmunks, even the name sounds stupid. Who would waste their time or their money to go watch the dumbest film of the century. Seriously, the only attraction to this film is the voice of the chipmunks, which sounds kind of funny, but after 5 minutes in, you start getting sick of all the cheesy moments and awfully written lines in the film. All the director sees that's enjoyable is the little cute chipmunks, that were so pathetic and emabarrasing most of the time. I not only barfed in Saw 4, but I had the stomach flew right after I watched this terrible chipmunk adaption. Even if Peter Jackson directed this film, it still would be stupid. The most pointless scene in the film was when the guy wakes up at 3:00 in the morning trying to shutup the chipmunks from randomly singing out of the blue. I can't believe how lame this movie was. I can't say that I've seen a more worse motion picture than this one. Avoid at all costs.… Expand

"Alvin and the Chipmunks" is a movie for children saddled with a plotline that will not pique their imagination. They'll be bored stiff. Adults will recognize the framework of the musical biopic; the rise to fame, followed by the "Alvin and the Chipmunks" is a movie for children saddled with a plotline that will not pique their imagination. They'll be bored stiff. Adults will recognize the framework of the musical biopic; the rise to fame, followed by the realization that fame isn't all it's cracked up to be(Theodore's gluttony is a metaphor for drug use), but a small child won't. And that's a problem. "Alvin and the Chipmunks" is "A Star is Born" with vermin. Kids want magic. Adults want Judy Garland. Neither party will be satisfied by this charmless piece of noxious filmmaking. "The Chipmunk Song" does not translate to a contemporary audience. It belongs in a time capsule. The film's only satisfying moment is when we see David Seville(Jason Lee...slumming...for his kids) writing the famous children's song at his piano. If you're of a certain age, when Alvin sings, "me, I want a hula-hoop", your heart will yearn to be a child again. But then they ruin the song's innocence with a unctous remake that's predictably awful, replete with that bane of screenwriting, the montage, which encapsulates their meteoric rise to the top. "Alvin and the Chipmunks" is the anti-thesis of what Pixar stands for; the late Jim Henson, too.… Expand

I am giving this movie a 1. i would've given it a zero but i think it really has the chance of winning the best picture Oscar/ and also the best actor Oscar but not for the human but instead for one of the chipmunks.

F*cking Unbearable

This movie is probably one of the absolute most annoying films I’ve ever seen along with it’s sequels.
