Plot

Playing around while aboard a cruise ship, the Chipmunks and Chipettes accidentally go overboard and end up marooned in a tropical paradise. They discover their new turf is not as deserted as it seems. 

Full Plot

During a cruise for a family vacation, the Chipmunks and Chipettes turn the ship into their personal playground, causing trouble. Dave notices that his old boss, Ian Hawke, is working as a pelican on the cruise and watching to see if the chipmunks misbehave. Alvin and Simon were grabbed by Dave (Theodore is watching Jungle Monster 4) when they are caught in the casino. The captain allows them one more activity: shuffleboard. Alvin decides to go para-sailing on a kite and he is blown away with the other chipmunks who are holding on. Dave tries to take a hang glider to go after them but Ian attempts to stop him and they both end up in the ocean.

Meanwhile, the six chipmunks find an island and sleep for the night. Dave enlists Ian's help find the same island and begin looking for the six chipmunks.

The next morning, the chipmunks go and find food and while doing so, an island castaway named Zoe shows up and sees the Chipmunks and Chipettes for the first time. They then go to Zoe's tree house on a zip line. As Eleanor tries to get out of the basket, she falls and sprains her ankle. Soon after Simon gets bitten by a spider that carries a neurotoxin. Zoe said it's not a big deal and that she is normal, despite being bitten twice a day the spiders.

When Alvin prepares to sleep, Simon has trouble sleeping. The next morning, Theodore observes Simon's personality has changed, becoming a French, adventurous chipmunk named Simone and follows him. The two of them go bungee jumping.

Once Simone meets the Chipettes, he is overtaken by Jeanette and asks her to dance at Alvin's dismay. Later, Zoe takes Simone, Jeanette, Eleanor, and Theodore to a waterfall and Simone finds a cave while Alvin and Brittany are on the beach finding wood to make a shelter. He returns with a gold bracelet which he gives to Jeanette.

The next day, Brittany and Alvin see an active volcano and they all decide to leave the island. Theodore and Simone finally find Dave and Ian. When they all get together, preparation of a raft to get them off the island goes underway and everyone is assigned a job.

When the raft is finished, Jeanette and Simone are still in the forest looking for food. Suddenly, Simone gets knocked out with Zoe's golf ball and Zoe kidnaps Jeanette (with the help of her basketball). Simon goes unconscious and reverts to his normal self when he wakes.

When Simon is found, he cannot remember anything since the bite. Brittany, figuring Zoe is responsible, asks him where he found the gold bracelet that he gave to Jeanette, but he doesn't remember. Brittany then asks Eleanor how to get there. When they approached the tree log to cross, Dave and Alvin decide they'll go and find Jeanette, while Ian and other chipmunks go back to the coast.

Zoe meanwhile forces Jeanette to get the treasure by tying her to a rope. As Alvin and Dave come to her rescue, the island begins to rumble again and Zoe lets go of the rope. Jeanette runs with Dave and Alvin back to the raft but is pulled back at the log bridge. Simon swings in to help Jeanette before Alvin can cut the rope with his Swiss Army Knife. Dave is left hanging from the log when it almost gives way. 

After Alvin and Ian convince Zoe to help save Dave, they run towards the raft and escape the eruption. While on the raft, Zoe apologizes to Jeanette for kidnapping her and forcing her to get the treasure. As a gift, Jeanette gives Zoe the gold bracelet that Simone had given to her. Alvin reconciles with Dave and they are rescued.

The Chipmunks and Chipettes perform at the International Music Awards. Ian regains his career and job back by selling Zoe's story to Hollywood.

In the film's epilogue, the Chipmunks, the Chipettes, and Dave are on a plane heading back home. Alvin is speaking on the pilot's microphone that the plane's destination is set for Timbuktu, when flight attendant tell the plane will start to fly, Alvin accidentally pushes the food cart, which hits Dave. Dave then yelles "ALVIN!"

Development

On October 26, 2010, according to 24 Frames from the Los Angeles Times, Mike Mitchell, the director behind Shrek Forever After, was in negotiations with Fox to direct a new film that was expected to involve the Chipmunks and the Chipettes getting shipwrecked.

Cast

Trivia

  • It was rumored Theodore will have a nightmare when him, his brothers, and the Chipettes are stuck on an island.
  • So far, every Alvin and the Chipmunks live action movie has premiered in December.
  • This is the second time the Chipettes star with the Chipmunks in the CGI movies.
  • Ian Hawke returns as an employee on the cruise ship.
  • It was rumored that a new character named "Munk-Y" would be in this film. The character is in fact Simon who goes by the name "Simone" after being bitten by a spider whose side effects cause Jeanette to fall in love with him.
  • It was also rumored that in this movie the Chipettes will be the Chipmunks' girlfriends. However the novel does have some scenes where it is hinted that one of them have a romantic feeling. ( Simon and Jeanette )
  • Eleanor breaks/twists her ankle after falling from a zip line which results in her using crutches for most of the movie.
  • The film could be based on the episode Island Fever from the TV series.
  • It was confirmed that Claire, Miss Miller, Toby, and Aunt Jackie will not appear in this movie
  • This was the second movie The Chipmunks get mistaken for squirrels, although the first for The Chipettes.
  • Unlike the first two films, Ian is a supporting protagonist, as he helps Dave rescue the chipmunks. Despite this, he does threaten to eat Theodore's necklace and to eat Dave if they didn't find the chipmunks soon. In the end, he finally gets his career back.
  • Instead of Matthew Gray Gubler ( voice of Simon ) voicing Simone, a different man voices him.....see Cast for more info.
  • Jeanette is the first of the six CGI Chipmunks to sing a solo song, S.O.S.
  • Zoey's basketball friend resembles Totoro.
  • Simone is the third character to speak French in these movies. ( Alvin was first, Ian second and Brittany fourth. )

Goofs

  • Eleanor twisted her ankle on the island, the same day she got rescued ( along with the rest of them ) but then she danced on stage. A twisted ankle takes longer than a few hours to heal. This is incorrect. Eleanor sprains her ankle on day 2, and they get rescued on day 5. (Simon becomes Simone on day 3, Simone finds treasure and Alvin and Brittany finish shelters on day 4, family reunited and rescued day 5)
  • Ian said the feet on his mascot costume were not removable but later when they were all making a raft, they used the feet for oars. This is not a Goof. The feet on Ian's costume are in fact non-removable. Theodore and Brittany are shown ripping them off of the costume.
  • When Simone and Jeanette dance in the rain Simon has became Simone but when he sings "Say hey" his voice is regular.
  • Brittany is seen wore her golden dress from the previous movie (in the magazine), despite this, in the stage she wore her pink dress.
