![]() It's a really good watch I must admit, even though it can be quite silly at times such as how they depict Frankenstein. And I'll leave you to watch the rest for yourselves. Whilst trying to rescue his Teddy, Theodore is captured by the monster and you'd expect him to be torn limb from limb by the monster, but instead, the opposite occurs. Later that night, the monster manages to find where they live using the smell of Theodore on his teddy as a way of tracking them down. ![]() After being spotted, a comical chase through the park ensues with the Chipmunks eventually outrunning the monster, but Theodore loses his teddy in the skirmish. That night the Chipmunks come across the castle and witness the monster being awoken with electricity. Meanwhile, the Chipmunks are playing at a concert in the theme park but end up getting lost due to Alvin's shenanigans. He then takes up residence in an American theme park in a castle built as a house of horror exhibit, quickly turning it into a new laboratory so he can carry out his sick experiments. ![]() The basic story is that a mad doctor in a European country of no designation (much the same with the villains of the last movie), is forced to flee his castle with his vicious monster Frankenstein in tow. Two open questions: (1) Why didn't Dave notice the broken glass in the back door? (2) Assistant Director Yoko Ono? Any relation? I know Simon briefly went to see the Maharishi, but.Īny die hard fans of the Frankenstein Franchise, go hide in your under- house shed immediately, as for the rest of you, grab a seat and enjoy! Being the first Chipmunk movie after the Chipmunk Adventure in 1987, Alvin and the Chipmunks Meet Frankenstein returns to the Chipmunks of our childhood in a Direct-To-Video release. Anyway, this movie had the feeling of a real labor of love on the part of its producers hope I'm not mistaken on that count. Could it be that, as I approach adulthood, I'm starting to identify more with his role as the chipmunks' adoptive father? Am I showing signs of creeping maturity? Oh God, I hope not. I've never felt more affection for 'the boys,' and I even found Dave's obligatory exasperation scenes less grating than usual. Maybe it's just a higher budget that I'm seeing. More alert, like they've taken some caffeine tabs since the '80s. This movie, which appears to have been put together by all or most of the original creators & voice actors, keeps all the original charm of the older incarnations while giving us a story that's cute, funny, sweet, & never boring, plus subtly redesigned chipmunks that.I dunno, they just look really good in this movie. And the character designs didn't appeal to me. The show had its good points, but it just seemed kinda slow. I used to watch the '80s show when I was but a wee larva, and I never really liked it that much. Oh, wait, that applies to every A&TC cartoon.AAALVEEEN! YOU EEEDIOT! Heh heh heh.
