Alvin Lives!

As a fan of the original Chipminks I went into this movie expecting to hate it but I came out realizing that this movie was, at the very least, keeping Alvin alive and introducing him and his borthers to a whole new generation.
The animation was passable and would have worked if the entire film were animated. Each character was there as they were in the original. By the end of the film they had grown on me and with little homages to the original sprinkled through it was saved from being a really bad movie
While Jason Lee was not the sell out I had feared he was in THIS film I seriously hopes he gets back to making real films with some substance and real acting. Wil Farrell could have done the part of Dave Seville.
