Critics Consensus

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

Kyle Smith

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.

Pop Culture Leftovers

Directed by Chris Miller, not to be confused with director Christopher Miller who co-directed The Lego Movie, doesn't quite have a finetuned vision here for Smurfs.

It’s a forgettable trash heap that offers nothing new, funny, or interesting to the average viewer, that isn’t executed infinitely better elsewhere.

Rated: D

I can’t help but wonder how could the film have smurfed up so badly?

I didn’t watch the trailer so that’s my fault but it was animated completely yet still inverses into the real world and there was just no singular plot so many characters I was falling asleep in the theatre. So disappointed. It felt very all over the place did not hold my attention. And I loved the original Smurf .

Honestly the music couldn’t save this terrible movie. Bad voice acting, boring story. The voice acting was just throwing famous people at it trying it save it but even taking lots of the trolls concepts it still hardly worked. Definitely don’t recommend.
