Synopsis
When the evil wizard Gargamel chases the tiny blue Smurfs out of their village, they tumble from their magical world and into ours -- in fact, smack dab in the middle of Central Park. Just three apples high and stuck in the Big Apple, the Smurfs must find a way to get back to their village before Gargamel tracks them down.

Movieline
This is a film that transcends "good" or "bad," "like" or "don't like." - 50
Tampa Bay Times
I deferred to the wisdom of Grouchy Smurf (George Lopez): "I didn't hate it as much as I expected to. But I still hated it." - 50
Orlando Sentinel
The slapstick is very small-kid friendly and even the most adult-friendly jokes are pretty mild stuff. - 50
Variety
Adorable and annoying, patently unnecessary yet kinda sweet, it's a calculated commercial enterprise with little soul but an appreciable amount of heart. - 50
Boston Globe
The bottom line: Any movie that gives Jonathan Winters work is doing something right. - 40
The Hollywood Reporter
For all the digitally enhanced Smurfness, the results are remarkably mirthless. - 38
Slant Magazine
Like the show, this boring, lazy, clumsily staged, overly lit, unnecessarily 3D-ed contraption even culminates with some half-hearted moral hectoring-in this case, the togetherness of the Smurfs works to validate heteronormative values. - 33
Entertainment Weekly
The Smurfs may be blue, but their movie is decidedly green, recycling discarded bits from other celluloid Happy Meals like "Alvin and the Chipmunks," "Garfield," and "Hop" into something half animated, half live action, and all careful studio calculation.
