One of the most successful family movie franchise, “Alvin and the Chipmunks” presents a new road to chip in the latest kiddie and family adventure movie “Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Road Chip” bringing in a mix of the new and classic Chipmunks’ mischievous humor and heartwarming moments that fans adore about the franchise.

In the latest movie, “Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Road Chip,”  Dave’s (Jason Lee) career as a musical artist manager has taken off, thanks to the Chipmunks.   He also has an exciting new client – a rising young pop star, named Ashley, played by actress/singer/author/model Bella Thorne (“My Own Worst Enemy,” “Shake It Up”).  Despite her popularity, Ashley has remained “sweet and down to earth,” says Thorne.  For example, she notes, “When we meet Ashley, she’s being stormed by paparazzi, but she makes sure that the ‘Munks aren’t trampled.”   Ashley also provides emotional and musical support to the ‘Munks when they reunite with Dave in Florida.

While Dave is busier than ever, he has opted to temporarily sideline the boys, so they can live as “normal” a life as possible.  “Dave is bit more comfortable with the idea of everything being as normal as possible,” says Lee.  Dave is also becoming more of a parent to the boys, a big step forward from serving as their beleaguered guardian.  “The parenting moments are important to the evolution of this franchise,” notes Becker.

But in the Seville/Chipmunks household, striving for normalcy, and actually achieving it are, well, a continuing challenge.  The boys miss their status as pop star icons and aren’t shy about letting Dave know about it.  Moreover, Dave’s frustration with his young charges continues to bedevil him, and fans will rejoice that his signature manifestation of said frustration – a full-throttle bellowing of “Alviiiiin!!!” – will again tax Dave, as well as the Dolby-ized sound system of your local theater.  “That yell is just kind of second nature, now,” says Jason Lee, “for me and for Dave.”

Dave’s life takes an additional turn, thanks to Samantha (she prefers “Sam”), an ER doctor (Kimberly Williams-Paisley) with whom he’s enjoying a blossoming romantic relationship.  In fact, Dave and Sam are growing so close that the ‘Munks are beginning to wonder if he’s about to pop the question.

The idea of Dave tying the knot doesn’t thrill the boys; in fact, they fear it’ll uproot their lives – and maybe uproot them from Dave’s home!  Further complicating matters is Sam’s teenage son, Miles (Josh Green), who has an instant dislike of the Chipmunks, who feel the same way about Miles.

The ‘Munks quickly learn that Miles is going to be a tough adversary because he can out-Alvin, Alvin. They have three days to get to him and stop the proposal, saving themselves not only from losing Dave but possibly from gaining a terrible stepbrother.

“Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Road Chip” opens very soon – January 20 from 20th Century Fox to be distributed by Warner Bros.
