When I was young, I wanted to be a chipmunk. Not any RANDOM chipmunk, I actually wanted to be one of the hallowed CHIPMUNKS *cue whisper screaming crowd sounds* In fact, I actually sang along with The Chipmunks cartoon and insert my own name after the "Alvin...Simon....THEODORE....and Stephanie" doot-doot-doo-doo-doo-doot
Seeing the movie in the theater was terrific when it came out. I was SO excited to drag Emily along with me to catch the show - and she fell in love with the Chipmunks too. In fact, she listens to the Chipmunks Christmas CD for the entire 3 months before Christmas - maybe even longer. :) She's a huge fan.
I wasn't sure about Jason Lee as Dave, but I must say, the creation of "Ian" - this evil-doer producer - and having David Cross star - WAS CLASSIC. I loved the character of Ian - mostly because he added the little sliver of ugly in a perfectly adorable movie. The shenanigans of the chipmunks when they took over Dave's kitchen were my favorite part. I love seeing them as little trouble-mess-makers. Definitely a must-see movie for kids, their parents AND grandparents.
