Preview: Alvin and the Chipunks: Chipwrecked (2011)

Synopsis:

Alvin and company return for their third big screen outing where the boys (and girls) are trapped on a desert island.

• Poster: D

Review:

I guess if you like the Chipmunks, you don't need some glossy one sheet to sell you on the film, but at least the producers could put some imagination into these things.

• Trailer: F; C-

Review:

It's only a teaser, but what a terrible film this looks like. Conjuring up all the bad memories one might have about the first two films, the audience is forced to endure a humorless, unexciting trailer.

The new trailer isn't much of an improvement and it certainly suggests that unless you're already a fan of the franchise, you can stay away, which I plan to do.

Oscar Prospects:

None.

Release Date:

• December 16, 2011
