Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel

Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel (2009) is a family comedy you can watch online on iFILM. Pop sensations Alvin, Simon and Theodore land in the care of Dave's clueless twenty-something nephew Toby, and the trio has to trade superstardom for an ordinary high school.

To save the school's music program, the boys need to win a battle of the bands and its $25,000 prize. The catch: three singing rivals show up on the same stage — the Chipettes, Brittany, Eleanor and Jeanette. Sparks fly between the groups, half competition and half first crush. Justin Long, Jesse McCartney and Amy Poehler lend the voices, while Zachary Levi and David Cross handle the live-action side.

Director Betty Thomas keeps the energy loud and silly, packing in cover versions of pop hits and gags pitched at younger viewers. An easy, good-natured pick for movie night with the kids. Stream Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel (2009) online on iFILM.
