Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
You've seen this movie before, when it was called Alvin and the Chipmunks, but the filmmakers are hoping that your kids don't remember.
The movie is the opposite of the cartoons: Everyone's body is in motion, but nobody is using his head.
This being the highly advanced 21st century, simple animation won't do, so we must suffer through mediocre, lifeless computer-generated animation of this treasured twosome.
Taking the kids to a matinee of Yogi Bear in 3-D is no picnic.
