Alvin and the Chipmunks

The thing about not giving movie reviews ... Let me take it back =Pp . I live a contradictory life and I cannot help it . Sometimes , when I look into the mirror , though I see a female , I feel like a male . Kidding .
One's smart , one has an unsatisfiable crave for food while the other's cool (well , at least he thinks he is) , what's so nice about sitting in a dimmed cinema watching three bushy-tailed squirrels (oops , chipmunks , I mean ) talk ? Might as well buy three squirrel-looking stuffed toys , make one don a pair of spectacles , shove imaginary french fries into the mouth of one of the three and get the last one a red hoodie with a big "A" on it AND THEN turn of the bleddy lights . See , your VERY OWN "Alvin and the Chipmunks" in your VERY OWN abode, so there is not a need to go and watch the movie . See , that also saves you 8bucks !That was what I thought initially . Until , I actually managed to drag myself out of bed and into the cinema . Reasons why "Alvin and the Chipmunks" is one helluva mooviee you musn't miss :
- Jesse McCartney is the voice of "Theodore" ( the chipmunk in green) . Now , altogether girls , say "Awwwwww" . AWWWWWW . Who cares if he sounds the most feminine among the trio ? 8bucks just to see , or rather , hear JESSE MCCARTNEY singing christmas carols in his digitally enhanced , squishy voice WHILE acting cute is already considered a steal ! It's not everyday that Jesse stars in a movie sounding this adorable right ?
- You get three squirrels dancing as if there's no tomorrow . Oh , and they can boogie . Woo lala ~
- Unlike any other christmassy movies , it does not end with a "Christmas is all about giving" message. Who needs to learn the same life lesson every single December ? We already got that like , two christmasses ago , thank you very much .
- Also , if it can get boys - who claim that they have more testosterone than we assume they have - divulging their deepest darkest secret about always having this thing for "kawai"-like creatures , why can't we enjoy this movie as much as the guys ?
In short , FIVE STARS !
