Les aventures au parc de Tic et Tac

Chip and Dale: Park Life has all the trappings of a basic good cartoon. It has some pretty unique animation, color palettes, and striking character designs that evoke the rubberhose days of yore while being fresh for a new audience.

Plus, the lack of dialogue makes the show accessible to fans around the globe, as is the course for Xilam.

But despite everything, I can't watch it. The sound design gave me a headache with its loudness and constant squeaking. The older cartoons were quieter and so is the new Mickey Mouse. So if you have sensitive hearing like I do, you shouldn't watch the show.

As I said, the series is perfectly fine, and I wish I could like it because its pretty fun, but the sound design ensures I won't tune in for anymore episodes. However, if you like the show, that's perfectly ok with me.

Its hard to make characters with this kinda longevity feel fresh and entertaining but this show manages to do it. A foreign production, it fits right into modern humorous sensibilities and features a bright colorful new art style but still feels like Chip n Dale. Only now, instead of tormenting Donald, they find adventures on their own turf of a bustling city park. Their neighborhood made up of various rodents and critters, including Clarice, who reappears for the first time in almost 70 years, the show follows the chipmunk Brothers as they find new trinkets, make new friends(and enemies) and generally take part in misadventures.

Its a very slice of life show but like any good series the two central characters keep things alive. If you've been a fan of Chip and Dale for some time, you'll find they feel very familiar here, and thats a good thing. Chip is organized, shrewd and focused, while Dale is carefree, dimwitted and clumsy. Their interactions with the characters and world are well defined by their personalities and make for good humor.

There is absolutely no intelligible dialogue, but rater the characters speak in familiar sounding squeaks(their voices still sound like you'd expect them too) while the visuals and some of the sounds give you a good idea of what they are saying. It was a risky choice doing this but it works very well once you get used to it. The animation does a great job keeping us the viewer up to speed.

The plots are simple but there's plenty to like and a few Disney fan Easter eggs to be found. Very easygoing and carefree show to sit down and watch. Kids will love this and chip and Dale fans will find something to like. Give it it shot.

I needed a gap filler one night while my wife was watching her soaps in the living room and I gotta say, I was not expecting how good this would be. The visual humour is great (and I love my silent comedy) but sometimes a bit stretched out and it takes Chip and Dale into the modern world in a way you'd think wouldn't be possible

I'm a big kid and I cannot recommend this enough. It is clever, funny, and knows what its doing. The only reason I don't give it a higher rating is because it does there are scenes that drag a bit.

As a fan of the current Mickey shorts, I was definitely looking forward to this. As a show that is meant to recapture the magic the old cartoons, like MM, it did not disappoint. The animation is fluid and captures the energy of the rubberhose era, the sound design (while I understand can bother some) is adorable and I appreciate that it's dialouge-less so worldwide viewers can enjoy it all the same, and the change in personalities for the title characters honestly opens up more humorous possibilites. The only complaint that I have is that, compared to the modern Mickey shorts, it feels like it's not going far enough. That might change with the next few episodes coming out, but as of the 2 episodes released, it feels like it's somewhat holding back and playing it safe. Other than that, it's really fun and cute so far, and I can't wait to see what else this show has in store!

Just goes to show that Disney doesn't need to make another Rescue Rangers to do something entertaining with Chip and Dale, no matter how much the whiny fanboys complain.

Chip 'N' Dale: Park Life, focusing on the beloved Disney chipmunks Chip and Dale, offers a fresh, modern reinterpretation aimed at introducing these iconic characters to a new generation. While it doesn't quite live up to the charm of its classic predecessors, the series successfully entertains younger audiences with its colorful design and quick-paced storytelling.

One of the show's standout features is its format of short, self-contained episodes, each packed with lighthearted adventures. The structure is ideal for children with shorter attention spans, allowing them to engage easily without needing to follow a continuous plot. Themes of teamwork, problem-solving, and friendship are presented in an approachable way, offering gentle moral lessons.

The minimalist art style is a noticeable shift from the more detailed animation of traditional Disney works. Although this design choice might disappoint fans nostalgic for the originals, its bright, vibrant visuals are undeniably appealing to kids. The simplicity of the animation complements the physical comedy that drives much of the show's humor, making it accessible to non-verbal audiences as well.

The humor, predominantly slapstick and visual, ensures the series resonates across language barriers. However, for older viewers, the lack of dialogue and depth may come across as overly simplistic. The soundtrack aligns with the show's lighthearted tone, providing upbeat and cheerful accompaniment, though it's not particularly memorable.
