Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaKaty Perry, who voices Smurfette in this film and The Smurfs 2 (2013), wasn't allowed to watch the original The Smurfs (1981) series as a child. Her parents were highly conservative pastors, and didn't consider it to be good for their children.
- GoofsWhen 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.
- Crazy creditsThere is a statement in the closing credits: "No digital cats were harmed in the making of this picture."

Featured review
Hollywood Butchers The Smurfs
One may wonder why Hollywood is so bent on destroying the childhood memories of adults who grew up throughout the 70s and 80s. First there were the 'Transformers', 'Garfields' abomination and now comes the destruction of 'The Smurfs'. I doubt this can even be called a movie as it appears to be more of an extended commercial for Sony products. If they were to make a film, they should have just kept it within the smurf world and not 'merge' it with live action America. The 3d animation of the smurfs are quite lively and cute (it's a shame they're wasted here) and their 'world' is also vivacious and colourful (which is another reason why the story should have been contained in this world but then again, what would happen to all the Sony advertisement?). The live action actors aren't given much to do as they are unable to rise above the formula. Special effects are a waste. Despite all the criticism, the film must have done well enough for sequels. It's an expensive ad, uh, I mean movie, but severely lacking in substance.
