day 235 - Smurfs II (American)

"

"Smurfette is having nightmares about betraying her fellow Smurfs and turning them over to Gargamel to be captured. Meanwhile, the Smurfs are preparing a surprise party for Smurfette's birthday, but as Smurfette tries to find out what her fellow Smurfs are planning, none of them are saying a word. She takes this to mean that everyone forgot her birthday.
In France, Gargamel is now a celebrity, amazing people with his sorcery, but he sees that he is running low on the Smurf essence that gives him his magic powers. With his new creations, evil smurfs called Naughties Vexy and Hackus, Gargamel plans on opening a portal to the Smurf village by using the Eiffel tower as a conduit so that he can kidnap Smurfette and, through her, get Papa Smurf's secret formula for creating Smurfs. However, as the portal he created is not big enough for him to go through, Gargamel takes Vexy and sends her through to the portal to grab Smurfette and bring her to Paris."-wikipedia

It was nice to see the gang back together in this film but it really is a bit corny. I enjoyed the plot since it shows more of the backstory to Smurfette the only known female smurf.I also enjoyed the new characters they added to the films. It was thanks to these characters that I enjoyed the film but it is no way a good animation film. I happen to dislike 3D, I don't think the animators did a good job with this film. I wish the film could have been better since I watched the original cartoon. I suggest this film to 3d animation fans.

1.9/5
