Review of Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Road Chip (2015) by Foxgrove — 14 Feb 2016

Uninspired song and dance routines try desperately, and unsuccessfully, to paper over the cracks in the flimsiest of story lines. This is paint by numbers film making that promotes not one iota of originality through its entire running time.

One even has to question if young children will enjoy the dubious pleasures it offers. It feels like it has been churned out as a C grade release filler, and even though excessive mawkishness is largely resisted, the blatant amateurishness of the production drags it down.
