Claire Wilson (Alvin and the Chipmunks, 2007)

Claire Wilson is Dave's girlfriend in the first live-action Alvin and the Chipmunks movie and one of the supporting characters. She is sweet, likable and kind, being one of the only likable characters in the film series.

Why She Rocks

 * 1) She is one of the likable characters that were created specifically for the live-action film series, which is good considering how lackluster those films are.
 * 2) Cameron Richardson was AWESOME playing as her despite not enjoying her experience in the film, explaining her absence from the other installments).
 * 3) She has some good jokes, mainly poking fun at Dave's flaws, but in a good hearted way.
 * 4) She is good at her job of photography, and enjoys it.
 * 5) It's understandable why she broke up with Dave as revealed in the beginning of the film, since Dave was very flawed and couldn't take their relationship seriously.
 * 6) While she didn't believe Dave's story about the Chipmunks at first, it's understandable since talking Chipmunks normally don't exist.
 * 7) She does apologize to Dave after meeting the Chipmunks and not believing his story.
 * 8) She is sweet, kind and gentle, especially when dealing with Dave's flaws, and she especially adores the Chipmunks when she meets them, and knowing they are the kids that Dave needs.
 * 9) She helps Dave grow in the first film, making him a better person and father to the boys, and this would stick with him as he eventually adopts the Chipmunks as his official sons in the fourth film.
 * 10) Claire does love the Chipmunks and Dave, and she shows genuine sympathy for Dave's loss and loneliness after they separated, and helps Dave save his boys from Ian near the end to the film. After the boys were saved, she comes over to have dinner with Dave, and is happy to see the family back together again and enjoys their company.
 * 11) She has some heartwarming and cute moments with Dave and the Chipmunks.
 * 12) For being in only one of the films, she still made an impact as one of the sweetest characters in the franchise.

The Only Bad Quality

 * 1) She can be considered an unnecessary love interest due to never being seen again or mentioned.
 * 2) * The second movie doesn't explain what happened to her, which is sad.

Trivia

 * She resembles Julie from the original 80s cartoon and how The Chipmunks ruined Dave's date. However, one major difference is that Julie disliked the Chipmunks and left Dave in anger for refusing to kick them out, while Claire adored the Chipmunks upon meeting them and reconciled with Dave soon after and even helped rescue them from Ian, accepting them as the family they are.
