Like the previous films, Mark Mothersbaugh's musical score is still lackluster and pathetic." Vacation" by The Go-Gos and " Trouble" by P!nk) and butcher them up with chipmunk singing. The musical numbers serve no purpose to the story and only appear in the film because like the previous movies, they took whatever popular songs by well-known artists (e.x.Despite the film being shown on a tropical island, neither meerkats nor honey badgers are native to tropical climates.A massive amount of filler, the biggest offenders being Alvin fighting a meerkat (in which he calls a "honey badger") and the dance-off between the Chipettes and three casino patrons on the cruise ship.Certain plot points, such as Eleanor breaking her leg and especially Simon developing an alternate macho persona named Simone (more on that later), go mostly nowhere.Product placement, including for Carnival Cruise Lines.They say they're traveling to the International Music Awards, but even then it is never really explained where it is actually taking place. The film cares so little about its cruise setting that it doesn't even tell the audience where the Chipmunks and the Chipettes are sailing to.In fact, it feel more like a ripoff rather than that. Like the previous films, It also contains so much pop-culture references that it even includes references to jungle films like The Jungle Book, George of the Jungle (1997), Tarzan and even survival films like Cast Away as well.Keep in mind, Theodore also did nothing to deserve any of this, and was the only one to stay inside the hotel room. It doesn't make sense that they should be forced away from the rest of the cruise when they have done nothing to personally injure anyone. While Alvin, Simon and Theodore are just animals, they are world famous talking Chipmunks. And to make matters worse, because the Chipmunks (not Theodore) went to the bar/casino, they are forced to play shuffleboard.
Although their behavior is rambunctious and annoying, it never puts anyone in danger. Other problems include Captain Corelli stating that the Chipmunks and Chipettes are misbehaving.Plot holes like Simon in his Simone persona being hit on the head by a golf ball somehow turning him back to his normal personality, when it was a spider bite that actually gave him the Simone persona.It has lots of cliches, like the "being stranded on a deserted island" cliche that has already been done to death.Once again, much like the first two movies, most of the jokes are unfunny that consist of toilet humor, bad puns (this even includes the title), and jokes that seem a little too adult for a G-rated film, such as Ian commenting on how he saw Snoop Dogg light a joint with two carrot sticks.While Dave and an unlikely ally launch a search, Alvin and company discover that they are not alone on the island, as they first thought. Of course, Alvin cannot resist the urge to create havoc, and the singing rodents soon find themselves marooned on a seemingly deserted island.
