JOIN THE CHIMPMUNKS AND CHIPETTES AS THEY REUNITE ON BLU-RAY, DVD, AND DIGITAL DOWNLOAD ON MARCH 27, 2012!
ALVIN AND THE CHIPMUNKS: CHIPWRECKED

I am so excited to announce that my favorite chipmunk characters: Alvin, Theodore, and Simon are reuniting with their female companions as they embark on a family vacation of a lifetime!  As a child of the 80's and 90's I especially appreciated the animated series - Alvin and the Chipmunks. Alvin was the troublemaker, Simon was the smart one, and Theodore was the chunky one(just to refresh your memory).  Well the well loved gang is back and just in time to enjoy with the family for Easter!

Twentieth Century Fox has outdone themselves again with this entertainingly funny movie!  The Chipmunks, Chipettes, and Dave Seville (Jason Lee) set out on what they think to be a dream trip as they board a carnival cruise line but it turns out to be nothing close to a dream trip when the Chipmunks, Dave, and Carnival cruise pelican mascot(who turns out to be their old manager), fall overboard and become "chipwrecked".  For the first time in their lives the furry friends are separated from Dave(their human adoptive father) and must learn to fend for themselves.  

OUR THOUGHTS:
You may not know this but Alvin and the Chipmunks actually began as an American animated music group back in 1958.  Nearly six decades later and they have came out with children's books, music albums, video games,  and much more!  It's not a surprise that they have been so loved for so many years because who could resist the cutest little furry chipmunks ever!  

I think my favorite part of the movie had to be when the Chipettes faced off against the girls for a dance competition.  It was so cute to watch them dance their little hearts out to the Lady GaGa song...too cute!  Besides songs from the Lady GaGa album the movie also features some songs from LMFAO's "Party Rock Anthem". My two year old was dancing all over the room and bobbing his head to the music so he really got into it!  The movie comes with many fun bonuses including sing-a-long music videos, extended scenes, behind-the-scenes featurettes, and much more.  

RUN TIME: 2 hrs 22 minutes(DVD), 3 hrs 54 minutes(2 DISC-DVD and Blu-Ray + DVD/Digital copy combo pack).
