Alvin and the Chipmunks 3: Chipwrecked (U)

The first two Chipmunk films, in which a bunch of furry CGI critters cause havoc, were so lamentable you might expect some improvement on this latest instalment.

But no, third time around the chipmunks are still annoying, with their penchant for causing grievous criminal damage to music by singing novelty songs with the finesse of a car alarm going off at 3am. For the record, the plot concerns the chipmunks going on a luxury  cruise and ending up on a desert island. This might be a fun excursion for some children – providing you feed them plenty of popcorn and chocolate – but it’s gruelling work for adults.
