SPK reviews DVD rental "Alvin and the Chipmunks"
First off, DON'T, especially if you have kids who might think it is a funny movie. Unless you want to buy the DVD for them to take home to their other parent who doesn't live with you :rofl: then it makes a nice GIFT and tell them to watch it endlessly at mom or dad's house... :P

http://movies.yahoo.com/movie/1809847896/info

The movie is built on the premise, albeit a premise developed by a moran, that chipmunks can not only TALK, but they can SING, in three part harmony!!!!!

Now, I have spent the last week in Colorado, and have spent more time than I planned watching these greedy little critters (chipmunk cheeks etc.) and can tell you that not a SINGLE ONE spoke, sang, or even attempted to entertain us other than to come up to us with little rodent fangs visible looking for a handout. Now I don't mean to sound like a Republican here, but I for one am SICK AND TIRED of giving handouts. Especially to rodents who don't talk or sing, or make me any money!!!!!! :P

The movie is silly, boring, and lacks any redeeming value in society. That is why it makes such a great gift I guess. Okay, no spoilers, but basically three chipmunks stupidly end up on a tree that is cut and taken to a business at Christmas time where a poor and degenerate music producer/song writer happens to be getting his ass handed to him by an even stupider ass recording industry executive. You can see where this is going. The rodents end up with producer song writer and make millions.

Now I just wanna know, where are the money making chipmunks at?????? Huh????? I give this movie a record D- grade!!!!!


:hi:

My son's dad would give him the "fun" gifts, to be kept at Mama's house, of course.

I am living vicariously through you!
