MisterWhiplash What's the conflict here? Pretty simple: Chip and Dale have a nightclub near them and, more specifically, a pretty girl chipmunk named Clarice singing there, and they each want her. So they both act like they don't want her, then act like it's time to go the bed, and then, well, there's total rivalry head-butting chipmunk madness with gags. It's a constant stream of them once they start, and they all work, not one misses, and yet the key ingredient here is charm: this is a delightful piece of art (yes, art) that has two characters in a duel that starts ugly and then becomes charmingly silly and stupid as it goes on (duelling instrument playing with Chip on piano and Dale on upright bass for Clarice's big number).I've seen this cartoon dozens of times, and if you're wanting to introduce your child to Chip 'N' Dale from when they were being produced by THE Walt Disney, this is the one to start with. If they don't take to it, well, don't bother with the others! (Well, except Applecore, that's the other must-see). It's charm on parade whether you love these characters or not.

TheLittleSongbird I personally like the Chip 'n' Dale cartoons, and I like the characters. The cartoons haven't got the most original stories ever, but they are always funny, and beautifully animated and scored. Two Chips and a Miss is no exception, in fact I consider it one of their best. It is also one of their most different and interesting, instead of the two playing against Donald or Pluto they play off against each other, plus you get a glimpse of their social life, which is refreshing in a sense. The story is nothing especially new concept-wise, but it is very well-paced and much less routine or predictable than some of their other cartoons. Two Chips and a Miss is often funny and very cute, who ever knew Chip 'n' Dale were such good musicians. It is beautifully animated, with all the characters well drawn, the backgrounds are fluid and the colours are lovingly textured and vibrant. The music is also wonderful, as are Chip 'n' Dale, more intelligible than usual, and the lovely Clarice(just wish there had been more cartoons with her in). Overall, interesting and cute. 10/10 Bethany Cox

Mary-18 "Two Chips and a Miss" diverts from the typical Chip & Dale formula of Chipmunks vs. Donald (or whatever Disney main character they happen to be pitted against) to give viewers a rare glimpse into the social world of chipmunks! Apparently, they don't just collect acorns and dig holes -- they have their own clothing style, hit music, and nightclubs! It's rather refreshing to see Chip & Dale pitted against each other instead of against a hapless gardener or nosey pooch. And it turns out that Chip & Dale are actually pretty good singers! Several years before Alvin, Simon, and Theodore recorded their first hit album, the folks at Disney had discovered that "chipmunk" singing was actually quite fun. I suppose the story lacks a substantial plot, but it's just so charming, and I have such fond nostalgic feelings associated with it, I can't help but be a cheerleader for this cartoon. I loved it as a child, and it still brings a big smile to my face.

Ron Oliver A Walt Disney CHIP 'N' DALE Cartoon.There's lots of rodent romance going on at the Acorn Club when TWO CHIPS AND A MISS get together.Here is a very routine Chipmunks film which (rather embarrassingly) puts their pint-sized canoodling on display. The lovely Clarice, for all her furry allure, would make only this one film appearance.Walt Disney (1901-1966) was always intrigued by drawings. As a lad in Marceline, Missouri, he sketched farm animals on scraps of paper; later, as an ambulance driver in France during the First World War, he drew figures on the sides of his vehicle. Back in Kansas City, along with artist Ub Iwerks, Walt developed a primitive animation studio that provided animated commercials and tiny cartoons for the local movie theaters. Always the innovator, his ALICE IN CARTOONLAND series broke ground in placing a live figure in a cartoon universe. Business reversals sent Disney & Iwerks to Hollywood in 1923, where Walt's older brother Roy became his lifelong business manager & counselor. When a mildly successful series with Oswald The Lucky Rabbit was snatched away by the distributor, the character of Mickey Mouse sprung into Walt's imagination, ensuring Disney's immortality. The happy arrival of sound technology made Mickey's screen debut, STEAMBOAT WILLIE (1928), a tremendous audience success with its use of synchronized music. The SILLY SYMPHONIES soon appeared, and Walt's growing crew of marvelously talented animators were quickly conquering new territory with full color, illusions of depth and radical advancements in personality development, an arena in which Walt's genius was unbeatable. Mickey's feisty, naughty behavior had captured millions of fans, but he was soon to be joined by other animated companions: temperamental Donald Duck, intellectually-challenged Goofy and energetic Pluto. All this was in preparation for Walt's grandest dream - feature length animated films. Against a blizzard of doomsayers, Walt persevered and over the next decades delighted children of all ages with the adventures of Snow White, Pinocchio, Bambi, Peter Pan and Mr. Toad. Walt never forgot that his fortunes were all started by a mouse, or that simplicity of message and lots of hard work always pay off.
