I went to the Alvin and the Chimpunks premier today. I anticipated updated dialogue, but still the same cuteness that the show possessed so many years ago, boy was I wrong! I understand that times have changed and technology has definitely upgraded, but this movie is just to mature for kids. I mean seriously, there wasn't one kid in the whole entire movie! It looked more like a music video with girls in bikinis, people drinking martinis, and big booty background singers, and then three little chipmunks dancing and singing. A dad brought his two kids and held his head in shame as he walked out before the movie ended. I wont give to many details of the movie, but just know it's not a good look! We were leaving the theatre and this lady was handing out posters and maybe 5 people took one. I hope your experience is better than mine, just had to put my opinion out there.

Alvin and the Chipmunks, Not So Much!

Hey thanks for that comment on the movie becoz I was going to take my kid to watch it. But after what you said I think I'll pass myself. I use to watch the cartoon as a kid growing up. I don't understand who it is designing these cartoons these days but I think they are going way out of bound with such cartoons as The Grime Adventures of Billy and Mandy. This cartoon I won't even let my son watch and its on Cartoon Network.
Thanks for the heads up!
uh-oh. i loved alvin and the chipmunks when i was a kid. have they ruined it too (ala garfield)?!
In my opinion, yes! Of course, many people disagree and that's fine, but I'm such a big fan of Alvin and the crew, so it was really disappointing as you can tell. I know 2007 is suppose to be more hip, but can we have some innocent childhood stuff? Thanks for the comment.
