Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaJason Lee was meant to have a larger role in this film, but his screen time was rewritten shorter than planned due to scheduling conflicts with My Name Is Earl (2005). Most of his scenes were filled in with Zachary Levi's character, Toby Seville.
- Goofs(at around 58 mins) At the sing-off, when the Chipettes are singing, Ian uses his phone to make a video. He says "If you like what you see, call Ian Hawke...." however, when the video is seen on a website by some record executives, Ian says "If you're interested..."
- Crazy creditsAfter the very last credit scrolls off the top of the screen, there is one more little scene.
- Alternate versionsWhen the movie is aired on Freeform in, Ian Hawke's phone number is muted (which is odd, since the number doesn't exist in the first place) and references to "The Donald" (as in Trump) are removed entirely.

Featured review
This film is about three chipmunks who has to put their singing career on hold to attend high school.
Even when I was typing the plot summary, I was already laughing out loud. What a ridiculous story! Can a sane person imagine chipmunks going to high school, and have all the schoolmates treat them like actual people? The plot is full of stupid and crazy clichés, in every imaginably contrived manner. And the voices of the chipmunks are so high pitched that they hurt my ears and annoy me so much. Even putting my enraged emotions aside, I often could not hear what the chipmunks say, which made me like the film even less. The quality of the animation is bad, production is bad, and acting is bad. Everything is uniformly bad. I can't believe how awful this film is, even taken into account that this is a children's film!
