Back to Family Film Guide: Holiday Movies 2011
'Alvin and the Chimpunks: Chipwrecked'
20th Century Fox
Opening: Dec. 16
Who's In It?: Jason Lee, Justin Long, Anna Faris
What's It About?: Dave (Lee) and his animal charges -- Alvin, Simon Theodore and the three Chipettes -- go on a family cruise vacation, but things go seriously awry when they end up on a deserted island. Despite the catastrophe, expect the 'munks to find a way to turn every situation into a joke, gag, or a cover of a Top 40 song.
Who Will Enjoy It?: Kids. The 'Alvin' franchise is pretty clearly aimed at kids, slightly older ones who will pick up on the pop-culture references in the song-and-dance numbers but not old enough to be done with cartoonish movies.
