Alvin, Simon, and Theodore are back in director Tim Hill's computer-animation/live-action hybrid following the further adventures of the world's most adorable singing trio. Songwriter Dave Seville (Jason Lee) has been struggling to gain recognition in the music industry for some time, and despite the fact that his former college roommate (David Cross) is now a high-profile powerbroker at Jett Records, Dave still can't manage to get a break. Things soon start to look up, however, when Dave discovers three singing chipmunks hiding out in the branches of a Christmas tree in Jett Records' world headquarters. Realizing that these woodland crooners cold prove to be his ticket to the big time, Dave does his best to transform Alvin (Justin Long), Simon (Matthew Gray Gubler), and Theodore (Jesse McCartney) into the next great pop sensation. As adorable and talented as they may be, though, these bouncy little critters aren't quite domesticated just yet; they still have a wild streak in them a mile wide, and it isn't long before Dave's life, home, and career are in utter chaos. But staying mad at such lovable little creatures is next to impossible, no matter what kind of mischief they might get into.

Ron Shelton baseball comedy Bull Durham gets the deluxe treatment on this DVD release from MGM/UA. The disc contains both a widescreen anamorphic transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1, and a lesser full-frame image. The closed-captioned English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital 5.1, while French and Spanish soundtracks have been recorded in Dolby Digital Surround, and a Portuguese soundtrack is available in Dolby Digital Mono. Subtitles are accessible in all four of those languages as well. Supplemental materials include a pair of commentary tracks. Director Shelton's track is full of wonderful stories about the film and his days as a minor league baseball player. He shares his love of the game and it is infectious. The second commentary, recorded by male leads Kevin Costner and Tim Robbins is less insightful. For the most part, they compliment the film and each other. Costner relates a story about Mickey Mantle's reaction to the film that puts it into a new perspective. Robbins comes across as forever thankful to Shelton for casting him in this, Robbins' breakout part. A making-of documentary, a profile of Kevin Costner, a photo gallery, and trailers round out this fabulous package from MGM/UA.
