Smurfs

I mean my god, with all the poorly written dialogue, world-building, forgettable soundtrack, modern references and obnoxious comedy, I can't remember what the hell I just witnessed.

This movie is so bizarre in its existence. How can anyone greenlight this? How can anyone sign onto it? How can it get all these big name stars in such a stupid abomination.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but the Sony Smurf movies are much, much better. THIS... I don't know what this is and honestly, I don't care either.

It's a strange movie with wasted talents and the less I can remember it, the better.

I can't think of one good thing that this movie did.

Actors for the smurfs ere not right. Hard to watch. Better to watch when it comes to an instead and "free". No name and Smurfette were hard to watch which matters it difficult cause the movie is mostly about them. It's more of a movie containing all of Rhianna's music along side an okay storyline. Skip it, totally. It worth it. I love Rhianna just not a fan of her voice acting for animated movies. Just stay home and wait for it to come out. I promise you're not missing much. There are many other smurf movies that are a whole lot better. This is predictable and not very exciting. I was tried my best to keep interested.

The Smurfs' new movie adventure lacks the charm of the little blue ones who have captivated generations.

Director Chris Miller mixes an overly childish adventure with music that doesn't quite meet the expectations one might always have for these characters. While the film is designed for young children, it doesn't quite work for them either. It's a flat journey, with no real appeal other than its splendid animation.

Its songs work, but they feel like they don't quite fit into the plot. It attempts to resemble Trolls, but it doesn't achieve the same impact. Still, the film is decent enough, just enough fun to watch and have a decent time with, but nothing else is memorable once the end credits roll.

It must also be said that the film's effective aspects are due to its reuse of what was effective, which lacks originality and is somewhat tiresome. It's a predictable journey whose ending we know from the beginning.

In short, this is a film that works thanks to the colors of its animation, but it falls far short of proposing refreshing and encouraging ideas for the future. It ends up being just another film about these characters.

The original smurfs cartoon from the 1980's had heart, soul, magic and a whole lot of substance, this one is just useless and it continues the downward spiral started in season 9 and continues onward ever since, now rihanna is a good singer, but she is wrong for voicing smurfette, she adds absolutely nothing new to the character, although there some good scenes, the rest are completely atrocious and doesn't have any of the charm nor heart of the original peyo clifford comic strip nor hanna barbera cartoons, the screenplay is completely woeful, it completely missed the opportunity of the charm, the writing is just pitiful, i will stick with the 1980's saturday morning cartoon version from nbc instead, this thing is just pathetic.

Thumbs way down.

This movie was very disappointing. I dont feel the voices fit the roles. I was used to Smurfettes voice being cute and dainty. The voice instead was rough and didnt fit her character. The plot didnt make sense. It seemed like things were juat thrown togethet and not thought out. They bleeped swear words all out at the end of movie in which my kids asked what that was. I dont want to have to explain an adult thing in a kids movie. I was very upset with this version. I think movies need to stick close to the original versions and characters. If not, it messes the movie up and highly disappoints.
