Critic Reviews

  • Roger Moore, McClatchy-Tribune News Service
    A Sarah Palin joke? A Charlie Sheen wisecrack? Is this a Chipmunks movie or a Letterman monologue?
  • Nick Schager, Village Voice
    Flails about in search of a creative reason to exist.
  • Jennie Punter, Globe and Mail
    The obvious nods to Castaway, Lost and other pop culture references are barely worth a grin.
  • Lou Lumenick, New York Post
    You usually have to go to an Adam Sandler movie, or the Quad Cinema, to see something as incompetently made as "Alvin and the Chipmunks.''
  • Sean O'Connell, Washington Post
    "Chipwrecked" serves up more of the derivative chaos that floats this franchise's boat.
  • Peter Hartlaub, San Francisco Chronicle
    It's an uninspired and instantly forgettable film. But it completely succeeds by its own standards: an 87-minute rainy-day distraction that will probably make a zillion dollars.
  • Claudia Puig, USA Today
    Maybe for the next installment, they can go off to college and find something better to do than making these silly movies.
  • Neil Genzlinger, New York Times
    There is chipmunk gambling. There is seductive dancing by Chipettes wearing only towels. There is a musical gag involving the lyric "whip my tail back and forth."
  • Betsy Sharkey, Los Angeles Times
    If only they were truly stranded on that desert island...
  • Adam Markovitz, Entertainment Weekly
    Good news: The shrill CG rodents, who last infested theaters in 2009's Squeakquel, are stranded on a jungle island with little hope of survival. Bad news: They've brought us along.
