Critics Consensus

Though cutely rendered, Alvin and the Chipmunks suffers from bland potty humor and a rehashed kids' movie formula.

As part of the audience, almost half of us might not like it and the rest enjoy. As critics, many wouldn't recommend a live action reboot with a forgettable story.

London Evening Standard

It's one of those movies where the wretched actors have to pretend to know what's going on as the CG effects take place beside and around them. They do their best. But it's Alvin and co that toddlers will appreciate.

Rated: 2/5

The Oklahoman

The animated chipmunks are just the right blend of realism and anthropomorphism. Their signature songs and rendition of "Funkytown" are fun, but their squeaky versions of current hits such as "Bad Day" are annoying, not charming.

Rated: 2.5/4

Filled with cheap slapstick, annoying high-pitched singing, and a variety of fart gags, all of which amused my daughter but not me.

Rated: 2/5
