Hoping to harness the magical Smurf-essence, evil wizard Gargamel creates a pair of Smurflike creatures, called Naughties. However, only a real Smurf can give Gargamel what he wants, so he kidnaps Smurfette to force her to cast a spell that will transform the Naughties into Smurfs. Papa, Clumsy and the rest of the Smurfs reunite with their human friends Patrick (Neil Patrick Harris) and Grace (Jayma Mays) to rescue Smurfette from the wizard's clutches.

Critics Consensus

Like its predecessor, Smurfs 2 may amuse small children, but it's largely an unambitious, charm-free collection of slapstick gags and one-liners.

The Smurfs 2 panders to children, offering nothing more than a series of fart jokes and pratfalls, for the obvious purpose of cashing in on an already established fan base.

London Evening Standard

In this obnoxiously peppy 3D sequel, "smurf" is an all-purpose prefix that the anaemic script uses when words fail. Which is often.

Rated: 2/5

Yes, this is the point in the summer when I outsource my critical judgment to my kids.

While the first film attempted to have a wider appeal, the sequel casts a smaller net... It simply feels as if filmmakers took a step backwards with this picture.

It's fairly run-of-the-mill in kid's film standards, and the screenwriters' lack of willingness to include anything even remotely edgy makes it difficult for adults to engage with it.

Rated: 2/5

First of all, I had no idea this movie was actually that straight up ass in many’s eyes, but they can say what they want about this sequel. I’m 19yo and I still enjoy movies such as this. I never minded the human subplots being there, this is one of my favorite underappreciated gems.

I cannot believe some people hate it this bad. So dramatic. When i was younger, i was so amazed by 3D technology and the story, the adventure of the smurf.

This strangely was told backwards. It told a narrative about Smurfette, when this should have been told in the first movie. It was sort of like a prequel sequel, but not well executed. A fun ending to this movie as well and still bland.
