The Smurf's Review

The Smurf's Take on our modern world.

I watched the Smurf's today, don't ask why. But half way through, I guarantee anyone over 12 will want to Smurf. But the movie still delivered decently, if you are the right audience.

The movie has the same type of premise as the Christmas hit, Alvin and the chipmunks , following the easter movie Hop. The movie is basically about Smurf's, creatures from a magical land. They go through this portal, into our world, but they have to get home to escape from an evil wizard.

Although this is just a kids movie, it stars some really big stars including Neil Patrick Harris, Jayma Mays, Katy Perry, Sofia Vergara & George Lopez, which were made to make the movie "More". Like the 2 movies, Alvin and the chipmunks and hop, they both feature animation in a real action setting. Another similarity is that they also have human aids in their journey, and seem to mess up the human lives.

The thing that made the movie over-the-top was the use of some words. The Smurf's had this song, lalalala, which was so smurfin' annoying. They would sing it so often, my little brother was dancing along, but I was burying my head out of annoyance. Also, they say Smurf as so many words, this is made fun of in the movie. They use it as a verb,noun,adjective and swear word. Adults get the hint here.

The good things about this movie was that it had a lesson, and people would be able to enjoy this lesson, it also had many small giggles and laugh moments. The humour seemed to be in crashing into stuff as well.

Overall the movie Smurfs, is a good movie, it delivers, but in a little blue annoying mess. It gets annoying and you get annoyed, but the little kids will really enjoy it, and in the end, thats whats important, after all they are the Smurf's target audience. C+
