Smurfs 2 - Review

This film was just one of those below average family films that have come out this summer.  The Smurf characters are very hysterical and the presence of Neil Patrick Harris and his sense of humor is a weird, yet enjoyable mix.  I will give the studio props on one thing, the animation to real life conversion effects are kind of cool, I guess.  Smurf Village is also cool to look at.  Otherwise, the story is very stupid and you are pretty much in a state of mind of saying to yourself, what in Sam's heck is going on right now?  It was like watching the worst edition of  a Marx Brothers film.  The antagonist, Gargamel shows no way of trying to be the bad guy in this film.  He has no way of trying to show that he is the bad guy in this film.  Also, Gargamel's stupidity is something that bothered me the entire film.  So basically, if your really bored or have absolutely nothing to do watch this film, I guess?  Maybe, just watch re-runs of Tom and Jerry instead?

Rating - 2/5
