Critics Consensus

Antic and zany without being particularly fun, this incarnation of Smurfs just isn't the smurfest tool in the shed.

Audience Says

Thin on plot but rich in blue charm, Smurfs is sufficiently smurfy for kids and fans alike.

Wall Street Journal

When I first encountered them on Saturday-morning television as a kid, the Smurfs cartoons struck me as inane, inert and innocuous, and the passage of 40-plus years has not made them seem any more ane, ert, or nocuous.

Los Angeles Times

For the most part, “Smurfs” hews to the textbook silliness of CGI-generated action and attitude humor, only this time so needlessly zigging and zagging it barely has time to convincingly sell its ultimate message of strength in togetherness.

seems to be running away from the source material and previous iterations as fast as possible, as if there was never any merit to the Smurfs at all. It is instead made by and for the Gargamels who secretly seek to destroy the whole smurfing thing.

Rated: 34/100

It’s enjoyable enough and mercifully short, even with the Rihanna songs crammed in to inspire downloads.

Rated: 2.5/5
