Review of The Smurfs (2011) by Jeff_Reviews — 21 Jul 2013
"The Smurfs" is an example of how adding cheap child humor with top celebrities does not work in an animated/live action film's favor. Similar to "Alvin and the Chimpmunks", the film suffers tremendously with the fact of the several gags and pop culture references that they try to attract children to, that end up failing to draw up anything more that gags.
Constant jokes of the usage of the word 'smurf' gets old fast, and leaves you wanting to leave the theater. The plot is horribly put, and suffers with any way of emotion or depth. Despite this, "The Smurfs" will probably entertain your kids, but will definitely leave you severely annoyed and wanting a refund.
Not looking forward to "The Smurfs 2" at all.
