the leading man is my tpye

Overrated

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Chip and Dale each receive a note to meet Clarice, a voluptuous chipmunk for whom they have fallen big time. They sneak out, not realizing that each has received the invitation, and meet at her night club, the Acorn. This then turns into one upsmanship, each trying to outdo the other. They are both talented musicians and strut their stuff for her. She, of course, knows her charms and manipulates them to no end.

What's the conflict here? Pretty simple: Chip and Dale have a nightclub near them and, more specifically, a pretty girl chipmunk named Clarice singing there, and they each want her. So they both act like they don't want her, then act like it's time to go the bed, and then, well, there's total rivalry head-butting chipmunk madness with gags. It's a constant stream of them once they start, and they all work, not one misses, and yet the key ingredient here is charm: this is a delightful piece of art (yes, art) that has two characters in a duel that starts ugly and then becomes charmingly silly and stupid as it goes on (duelling instrument playing with Chip on piano and Dale on upright bass for Clarice's big number).I've seen this cartoon dozens of times, and if you're wanting to introduce your child to Chip 'N' Dale from when they were being produced by THE Walt Disney, this is the one to start with. If they don't take to it, well, don't bother with the others! (Well, except Applecore, that's the other must-see). It's charm on parade whether you love these characters or not.

"Two Chips and a Miss" diverts from the typical Chip & Dale formula of Chipmunks vs. Donald (or whatever Disney main character they happen to be pitted against) to give viewers a rare glimpse into the social world of chipmunks! Apparently, they don't just collect acorns and dig holes -- they have their own clothing style, hit music, and nightclubs! It's rather refreshing to see Chip & Dale pitted against each other instead of against a hapless gardener or nosey pooch. And it turns out that Chip & Dale are actually pretty good singers! Several years before Alvin, Simon, and Theodore recorded their first hit album, the folks at Disney had discovered that "chipmunk" singing was actually quite fun. I suppose the story lacks a substantial plot, but it's just so charming, and I have such fond nostalgic feelings associated with it, I can't help but be a cheerleader for this cartoon. I loved it as a child, and it still brings a big smile to my face.

Chip n' Dale are rather static and boring, to me and the Warner Brothers Goofy Gophers are much more entertaining, but they did do a few good shorts, of which this is one. I suspect this is because the rivalry here is realistic and the situation much more interesting. This one's well worth looking for. Recommended.
