Alvin and the chipmunks on DVD Tuesday

Alvin and the Chipmunks Alvin and the Chipmunks is coming to DVD this Tuesday April 1st. I can’t wait. I think this is one children’s movie we will have to add to our home movie library. We saw this at the theatre and it was laugh out loud funny!

I was a little skeptical that they could create a modern day Alvin and the Chipmunks that was as good as the original. It was good in a different way. It was enough like the original to bring back some fun childhood memories, but they did a great job of modernizing the chipmunks.

The Alvin and the Chipmunks movie has David Seville as a struggling song writer. He accidentally brings the chipmunks home in a basket. After discovering they can talk (and sing) he tries to market their talent. The Chipmunks find success, but when their pushed too hard by record exec Ian Hawke, David tries to slow them down and finds himself cut out of the picture.

Check out the trailer.
