Alvin and the Chipmunks Movie
In a forest, three talking and singing chipmunk brothers named Alvin (Justin Long), Simon (Matthew Gray Gubler) and Theodore (Jesse McCartney) find their tree chopped down and transported to Los Angeles. Once there, the threesome ends up living in the home of David Seville (Jason Lee), a struggling songwriter. Dave considers the chipmunks' singing talent and his songs to be a formula for success and they record an album which is quite a big hit. However, fame shows the reverse side of the medal. Dave's college friend and record label executive, Ian Hawke, sees the talented chipmunks as the opportunity for personal gain and schemes to break up the family. When the sleazy mogul succeeds in doing that, he begins exploiting the rodents to the point of exhaustion.
