Alvin and the Chipmunks should keep an eight year old pretty happy.
The Chipmunks are, of course, adorable, and Jason Lee does his usual character with usual aplomb.
The effects are amazing: they really are there. The music was fun, and overall it is silly and funny enough to make even adults laugh.
The surprise is how charming it all is.
We weren't sold on the plot (evil record producer takes innocent Chipmunks and introduces them to a crushing schedule) but we loved the set-up scenes.
Doesn't require any thought to enjoy and it is genuinely funny in places.
Even adults won't be annoyed...
