Viewers Verdict

True confession: I had more fun at the Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus Concert Tour than I’ve had in a long time at the movie theater. I think it’s safe to say that we’re seeing the beginning of a new wave in movie theaters……

We hauled TB and TG to see Alvin and the Chipmunks. It was better than it could have been, which is just about all that one can ask of a movie called Alvin and the Chipmunks. The scene in which Jason Lee’s presentation at work was ruined by the Chipmunks’ graffiti actually made me laugh out loud, and I never actually fell asleep or wished for death, so it was better than most children’s movies. Jason Lee gets a ‘good sport’ award for that one…..

Viewers will be hoping for something more inventive and clever than what has been conceived while children will be those most capable of stomaching it….
