| More singing. More mayhem. And this time not even an island can handle the chipmunks. |
How both Alvin and the Chipmunks movies managed to churn out over 200 million dollars each time in exchange for cheesy and excruciating entertainment is downright mindboggling. But of course if two movies soar past that milestone, a third film is assured whether audiences like it or not. That brings us up to date with the latest Alvin adventure given the fitting portmanteau subtitle of Chip-Wrecked.
If 2009’s Squeakquel wasn’t bad enough, the creative minds behind this franchise decided to combine the words chipmunk and shipwrecked to give said title. This second sequel is unlike the previous two films, leaving the music industry behind for open waters aboard a cruise ship. Dave Seville (Jason Lee), the Chipmunks and the Chipettes are on vacation, but after some seafaring hi-jinx, they find themselves overboard and washed up on a deserted island. Not only do they have to contend without the luxuries of their pop sensation lifestyle, but they also have former producer, Ian (David Cross), on their tail still seeking revenge.
