I remember watching the first Chipmunks film in 2009 - it wasn't bad, it wasn't horrible, the acting was typical Hollywood talent. But after watching The Chipmunk Adventure, I got a completely different feeling. I guess you can say it's a mixture of nostalgia and lots of enjoyment in general. There was not a moment of the 2D film that didn't make me smile in one way or another. Every scene was necessary to the story, as well as for providing plenty of cheesy but super cute and nostalgic entertainment.
I'm trying to find that with modern movies...I kinda felt it with Frozen, Brave, and Big Hero 6...But I don't think they met the same expectations as The Chipmunk Adventure. Not that they're bad movies, I did love watching them, and was impressed by the presentation. But the 2D Chipmunk film provided me an experience I could never get from a Disney movie. It kinda makes me upset that I didn't really grow up with the Chipmunks, besides their Xmas songs, I guess.
As for best Chipmunk, I'm definitely for Jeanette.
