Disney's Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers movie earns positive early reviews. Chip and Dale are chipmunks that Disney first introduced in 1943's Private Pluto. They were given their own animated show, Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers, in 1989, which saw the chipmunks heading a detective agency. Chip and Dale were joined by their trusted team, Gadget Hackwrench, Monterey Jack, and Zipper, who helped them solve mysteries in each episode. The series ended in 1990, and now Chip and Dale are poised to make a comeback in a feature film.
The new film, Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers, is a continuation of the animated series that enters into meta territory, featuring the chipmunks coexisting with people in the real world. Directed by Akiva Schaffer of The Lonely Island, the Chip 'n Dale reboot looks to draw inspiration from films like Who Framed Roger Rabbit, which also saw anthropomorphized cartoons in the real world. The plot sees Chip (John Mulaney) working as an insurance salesman, with Dale (Andy Samberg) still interacting with fans at conventions, when they are forced to reunite as cartoon characters go missing.
Early reviews for Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers have begun popping up, which call the film nostalgic and hilarious. Collider's Steven Weintraub said, "The film is laugh out loud funny and has more cameos & surprises than a Marvel movie." And Ethan Anderton of /Film stated that "CHIP N DALE RESCUE RANGERS is truly a worthy successor to WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT." Many reviewers have also pointed out the numerous cameos present throughout the film, with user @sagesurge even saying, "No property is safe, especially not Disney." Cris Parker went as far as to say that "It’s a top contender for BEST live action hybrid movie ever made." Check out some of the early reviews for Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers below:
