Alvin & The Waterhorse -- any good? - Blu-ray Forum

Mark07 · 03-02-2008, 07:43 PM

Has anyone seen either "The Water Horse: Legend of the Deep" or "Alvin and the Chipmunks"? Because they are on my list of Blu's to buy in April. I wanted to see them in the theater but missed them. Was just curious if they would be worth the purchase. I don't know if I am going to be paying $26-27 for each title though. Thanks guys.

I haven't seen either of them but am considering "Alvin And The Chipmunks" just because I think it might be a fun movie to watch on Blu. But anyways here are the Rotten Tomatoes reviews for the two..

I am buying Alvin and the Chipmunks, to watch with my son. I am doubtfull about The Waterhorse.

I wanted to see waterhorse simply because I've been fascinated with the lochness myths and all. And I've been an Alvin fan since I was a little kid so I am most likely picking that up

Yes both are good kids movies and worth a look I will be buying alvin for my son

alvin is hilarious... i would recommend to anyone, and i have gotten only good reviews on the waterhorse

Mark07 · 03-02-2008, 08:11 PM

thanks for the input everyone...I just hope they come down in price by about $5.

Alvin was very cute. And much better than i thought it would be. Water Horse was a major disappointment to me at least. None of my family liked it either. But if you like the old Amblin Family Films you may in fact like it.

I just placed pre-order for The Waterhorse on Amazon...only $16.95. Haven't seen it but based on the reviews it seems like a movie I can enjoy watching with my kids.

Mark07 · 03-06-2008, 06:42 PM

Just noticed the price drop also...picked it up along with Short Circuit ($13.95)

I've only see Alvin and the Chipmunks,
it was a cute movie. Nothing I'd spend over $20 on though.

i went to see the water horse in theaters, wasn't that impressed. it's predictable and is like a revamped version of freewilly

Tanv54 · 03-29-2008, 03:31 PM

I'm pretty sure u get a digital copy w alvin. that's why it is so expensive.
