throw in the Liam Neeson "Taken" joke, at least two other legit laughs, plus a breezy hour and a half running time, and you too will find yourself endorsing a chipmunk flick
The Road Chip isn't exactly what I'd call a good film and has almost nothing going on in the visual department, but for those saddled with kids for an afternoon, you could do a lot worse
kids don't need the Chipmunks movies to take them somewhere cheap. They deserve a comedy or a musical or a cartoon-none of which The Road Chip quite is-that's more than a high-pitched distraction
