Very Cool!!!

I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

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.

"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.

A Walt Disney CHIP 'N' DALE Cartoon.There's lots of rodent romance going on at the Acorn Club when TWO CHIPS AND A MISS get together.Here is a very routine Chipmunks film which (rather embarrassingly) puts their pint-sized canoodling on display. The lovely Clarice, for all her furry allure, would make only this one film appearance.Walt Disney (1901-1966) was always intrigued by drawings. As a lad in Marceline, Missouri, he sketched farm animals on scraps of paper; later, as an ambulance driver in France during the First World War, he drew figures on the sides of his vehicle. Back in Kansas City, along with artist Ub Iwerks, Walt developed a primitive animation studio that provided animated commercials and tiny cartoons for the local movie theaters. Always the innovator, his ALICE IN CARTOONLAND series broke ground in placing a live figure in a cartoon universe. Business reversals sent Disney & Iwerks to Hollywood in 1923, where Walt's older brother Roy became his lifelong business manager & counselor. When a mildly successful series with Oswald The Lucky Rabbit was snatched away by the distributor, the character of Mickey Mouse sprung into Walt's imagination, ensuring Disney's immortality. The happy arrival of sound technology made Mickey's screen debut, STEAMBOAT WILLIE (1928), a tremendous audience success with its use of synchronized music. The SILLY SYMPHONIES soon appeared, and Walt's growing crew of marvelously talented animators were quickly conquering new territory with full color, illusions of depth and radical advancements in personality development, an arena in which Walt's genius was unbeatable. Mickey's feisty, naughty behavior had captured millions of fans, but he was soon to be joined by other animated companions: temperamental Donald Duck, intellectually-challenged Goofy and energetic Pluto. All this was in preparation for Walt's grandest dream - feature length animated films. Against a blizzard of doomsayers, Walt persevered and over the next decades delighted children of all ages with the adventures of Snow White, Pinocchio, Bambi, Peter Pan and Mr. Toad. Walt never forgot that his fortunes were all started by a mouse, or that simplicity of message and lots of hard work always pay off.

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.
