 - a Nostalgic favoriteMy sister actually bought this and brought it over to watch at my apartment the other day. I'm 24 and she's 20 but we had both watched this when we were younger (it actually came out a year before my sister was born!) and loved it then. Watching it the other day was the first time we had seen it since we were quite small and it was as fun and amusing as we remembered. Then and now we love the idea of traveling around the world and doing fun (and sometimes dangerous) things. The songs are cute and funny. My sister and I got a particular kick out of watching Brittany and Jeanette try to snake charm with the song about "gettin' lucky with you." I'd actually love to hear some of those songs non-Chipmunkified so that it'd be easier to sing along with but they are perfectly fun to sing as is too. When we were little we liked Alvin and Brittany the best as characters but as adults we found them to be annoying and liked characters like Simon much better. His dry humor when he instructs Alvin to put the balloon by the fountain and Alvin sticks it in the trees ("Like I said, in the tree.") made us crack up. We never used to like him. Anyway I found it adorable and I'm buying a copy for myself now. Rating: - Great MovieI have loved this movie since I was a child. I have it on tape, but it's not doing too well recently, so I bought this DVD. Great price; the quality is not perfect, but not bad at all. I'm just really happy that I have it in DVD now. Rating:  - This Movie's Age Shows, Strictly for NostalgiaAn OK movie, didn't really take the plot too seriously, just wanted to look at the animated Chipmunks for the first time in years after seeing the 2007 live-action movie. As expected, looks like an early 90's kid's movie, but the songs weren't bad and it's pretty fun. Make you remember the time. Rating: - An oldie but goodieI grew up with this movie and totally loved it! I now have a two year old son and he LOVES it too. He is totally glued to the movie and when the songs start he gets up and dances, sings and claps his hands. The final bonus to this is that I still love it so it works!!! Great for the whole family to enjoy! Rating: - An Nostalgic AdventureI was a child of the 90s. I remember watching Disney Channel before it became a 'tween girl' fad channel. I remember Toon-in-Tuesdays, and that's how I came upon The Chipmunk Adventure. It's a classic for me. I decided to pick it up after seeing the new Chipmunk movie in theaters. This film is full of catchy music, from 'The Girls of Rock & Roll' to 'Woolly Boolly.' What surprised me is that, unlike most animated shows of the early 90s, this one wasn't drowning in cheesiness. It had humor, as well as a couple of truly sentimental moments. It brought back a lot of memories for me, and I actually watched it two consecutive days, which is rare. If you're thinking about buying this movie, I'd certainly reccommend it. It's not too expensive, and you're getting a solid movie, long enough that you could sit down and enjoy with your kids, yet short enough it won't take up your whole day. The Chipmunk Adventure is an adventure for everyone!
