The Smurfs
When the evil wizard Gargamel chases the tiny blue Smurfs out of their village through a magic portal, they tumble from their magical world into the life of ad executive Patrick Winslow. Only three apples high and lost in the Big Apple, the Smurfs must find a way back to their world before Gargamel tracks them down.

The Smurf's is a cute film . . . if cute's your thing.July 29, 2011
The Smurfs mostly takes place in a grown-up world of cosmetics advertising and expectant parents. Without a child character to interpret and join the action, it's a pretty dull way to introduce young viewers to the new blue crew.July 29, 2011
That two sequels have been announced is terrifying.January 06, 2012
...a cynical extension, not even an earnest spin-off.October 02, 2012
Filmgoers who enjoyed the cartoon (or comic strips) as a kid will very likely be left with the taste of sour Smurfberries.February 28, 2013
The Smurfs is a cute family film that suffers from being a little formulaic and uninspired, and the CGI smurfs don't look like the original characters.July 29, 2011
Gosnell directs as if every scene must be either a nauseating roller-coaster ride or a syrupy melodrama.January 29, 2012
The kids might enjoy it, but The Smurfs is nothing but an annoying, noisy commercial for Sony products. Save for Hank Azaria's amusing take on Gargamel, the film is fatty junk food.July 29, 2011
The Smurfs ends up being just below average, it won't give you nightmares, and small ones might dig it.July 29, 2011
It's raw and mean-spirited, with too many of the Smurf word substitutions more naughty than nice ("Who Smurfed?" or "Where the Smurf are we?"). That's Smurfed up.August 09, 2011
To play The Smurfs Drinking Game you will need: Two 500cl bottles of Blue Bols (per player), one white sleeping cap, ample powder-blue face paint and too much spare time.June 23, 2013
If your kid loves this, your kid needs to read a book, or even, heck, play a video game. At least you can tell video game characters apart.
