Alan Cumming, Fred Armisen, George Lopez, Anton Yelchin, and Katy Perry in The Smurfs (2011)
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.

    Storyline

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Katy Perry, who voices Smurfette in this film and The Smurfs 2 (2013), wasn't allowed to watch the original Smurfs (1981) series as a child. Her parents were highly conservative pastors, and didn't consider it to be good for their children.
    • Goofs
      When Clumsy runs to the waterfall, Grouchy says that they are down to 99 smurfs, implying that there are 100 smurfs in total. In fact, counting smurfs introduced after the events of The Hundredth Smurf, there are 105 smurfs.

    I took my 5 year old son...... and he LOVED it!
    I loved the Smurfs in the 80's AND!!!!!!!!! At the age of 40, I love the Smurfs again in 2011!!!!!!! I am so happy to share a new version of these magical creatures that I grew up loving with my son!!!!!!!! It is so worth it!!! I am so glad I took my 5 year old son and I will buy the movie so I can share in with my daughter (who is too young to enjoy the theater experience) and enjoy it again!!! The cast list is great! Neil Patrick Harris is just awesome!!!! And I have always loved Jonathan Winters since I saw him in "Mork and Mindy" as a kid!! If you withhold Smurf magic within your heart..you'll love this movie. It was Smurf-Awesome!!! My 5 year old son has been humming the Smurf tune ALL day!! (I do have to say that I chose to see the non 3D version I really have never been in too 3D but I see that it is become the "IN" thing) Smurfablous!!!!
