alvin and the chipmunks

I wasn't too pleased when I was told that instead of watching I am legend, we'll be watching Alvin and the Chipmunks. I used to watch the cartoons when it showed on tv and liked it. Those chipmunky sounds the little critters make. Think of the sound of Akon's song lonely times 3 with more melody and dancing. Man cg has come a long way.

I enjoyed the movie very much. It follows a very predictable theme of lost, found, taken, rescued, happy ending. Yay. I guess i'm getting old quickly, or maybe i need to loosen up and really enjoy myself.

Was talking to one of my close friends and she said I don't have much to say these days and I find that she's right. i dunno, the world just seems more serious these days.

Oh yeah the movie. What would you do when three talking beavers, sorry chipmunks follow you home in a basket full of stolen muffins? Show them off? Well that's what anyone would do, and that what Dave did and got disappointed when his once hysterical chipmunks became pitiful, possibly abused animal in front of other people. Think about the cute sorry face the cat in Shrek made time 3 with a scared demeanour, priceless :D

The rodents are cute and the movie was fun and funny. Good if you have young ones lying around with nothing better to do. So i give it a 4/5. And I was glad we didn't watch I am legend since i heard its quite boring.
