Review of Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked (2011) by Kacey S — 28 Sep 2013
There is something about harmonizing a cappella chipmunks that brings a smile to your face. It's hard to resist. Another good installment to the Chipmunk saga. I actually liked this better than the Squeakal.
It compares to the first film in quality, only this one doesn't have that holiday motif. A goo fun film for the whole family. The soundtrack is entertaining, with mash ups combining songs you would've never imagined would go together.
Who would've ever thought in 2011, Gloria Estefan's Conga would be remixed with a remixed version of an old Italian song? In this movie we watch the Chipmunks stranded on an island. Granted the things they construct out of bamboo and coconuts make Gilligan's Island seem realistic--but then again, this is a movie about a man who is raising six talking chipmunks as children.
They even pay homage to "Cast Away" (2000). Simon's transformation into "Simone" is entertaining, but was this perhaps an attempt at competing with "Puss 'n boots" (2011)? Interesting nonetheless.
This movie is fun to watch.
