The Smurfs 2

I really love this movie and the music is great.

brought back memories

I grew up watching the Smurfs cartoons with my mother so it has been such a pleasure to watch the newer versions with my daughter. The Smurfs 2 did not disappoint. The story line is perfect for today's time and it teaches children acceptance of differences and to treat everyone with respect. It also shows that the family tie is strong. I loved watching this movie with my daughter and the quality of the picture was great. The blend of animations with real actors was flawless. I highly recommend this movie.

It's another time-traveling trip for the Smurfs (though thankfully not in the same fashion as the dreaded final season of the Smurfs cartoon show that pulled its plug), but this time it's to rescue Smurfette, who seems to be having issues over who's her real family -- the Smurfs or her creator Gargamel with his new creations, the Naughties. Again Gargamel is after the Smurfs for stealing their essence to power up his magic (instead of his usual purpose of making the Philosopher's Stone as in the comic books and the cartoon show), and again we have the Winslows along for the ride, this time with their son Blue and Patrick's stepfather Victor Doyle for the respective additions of charm and embarrassment. Throughout the story, Smurfette, Patrick Winslow, and the Naughties get to learn the lesson that family isn't about who brought you into this world, but who really cares for you as a person and who wants to see you grow as a person. Besides this, the movie still has its share of laughs from the previous movie, even if the number of Smurfs that appear in it is still limited to the five that are the main focus of the story, with the others (such as the former leads Brainy and Gutsy) having minor or even cameo roles. Unfortunately for the movie series, which is now being cancelled in favor of an all-CGI reboot by Sony Pictures, the time-traveling Smurfs-in-the-modern-world story aspect is perhaps in my book its biggest failing, as though the production crew has to rely on that kind of story to justify the budget they were given to create a good live-action/CGI-animated movie of a lesser scope than Peter Jackson's interpretation of the J.R.R. Tolkien Hobbit/Lord Of The Rings medieval fantasy series. Once was pretty much enough, and twice was pushing it. Hopefully with the reboot the Smurfs will be brought back to having stories taking place solely in the medieval fantasy Europe world that they came from, but who knows?

Alright for the kids

Received on time in good condition

I was so happy they made a sequel to the first movie. The movie is a wonderful family movie. It came quick in the mail. I gave this to my daughter for Xmas. We saw it at the movie and she loved it. i hope they make a 3rd movie. I recommend it!

My 5 year old loves the smurfs. I don’t necessarily like the storyline of this one as much as the first. I don’t like that Smurfette disregards her kindness and goodness and starts playing on the “bad” side. To me the smurfs are all around wholesome so I don’t like that they turned one “bad” even for a brief period.

Très bien

This is a sweet little film suitable for all ages. Of course I remember the smurf cartoons and comics from my childhood in the 80s. Now the Smurfs are animated in 2010s technology. The Smurfs 2 is a continuation of the original Smurfs movie with more new characters and some of the same Smurfs (Papa, Smurfette) and a few new ones not featured in the original film (like Vanity Smurf). My 4 year old loves this film - he plays it over and over. There are many jokes that go over children’s heads and he acting is well done. The voices of the Smurfs are also well done and entertaining. Highly recommended for children of all ages, and adults too. It’s not a film you’ll groan at having to watch with your child (even over and over again - well, there’s a limit but you get what I mean!)

STORY: Wieder spielt die Story in unserer heutigen Zeit, zum größtenteil in Paris. Gargamel hat zwei "Lümmel" erschaffen (ähnlich wie seinerzeit Schlumpfine). Er lässt Schlumpfine entführen, damit sie ihm die gehheime Zauberformel verrät, die sie seinerzeit zum richtigen Schlumpf werden ließ. Mit dieser Formel will er weitere erschaffene Lümmel zu richtigen Schlümßfen verwandeln, damit er ihre Schlumpfessenz anzapfen kann, um die ganze Welt regieren zu können. Natürlich machen sich Papa Schlumpf und ein Rettungsteam auf, um Schlumpfine zurückzuholen, was sich als sehr schwierig gestalten wird..... MEINUNG: Na, halten wir uns nicht mit Kleinigkeiten auf, die hier immer wieder zu lesen sind: "Blöd dass es nicht im Mittelalter spielt" oder "ich hätte mir andere Schlümpfe gewünscht, die auf Rettungstour gehen"....meine Güte :-D Der Film ist gut. Punkt. Lustig, eine unterhaltsame Story, viele tolle Ideen, und ein wenig spannend. Dass die Geschichte in der Gegenwart spielt, macht es doch um so interessanter. Die Geschichten aus der alten Zeit sind überall zu lesen oder in der Zeichentrickserie gelaufen. Und würde man hier ein Remake hinlegen, würde sich der Eine oder Andere dann wieder daran stören, dass es nicht wie das Original rüberkommt. Also, soviel dazu. Das hier ist Kino für die gesamte Familie. Wobei hier ja auch in den Rezensionen FSK 0 hinterfragt wird. Naja, eine FSK 4 gibt es nicht, aber ich denke, Kinder unter 4 werden überfordert sein.... TON & BILD: Sehr gutes und scharfes Bild! Tonspur gibt es in deutsch und englisch in DTS-HD 5.1 (sehr guter Klang); sowie in dänisch, finnisch, norwegisch, schwedisch uuuuund türkisch (!) in DD 5.1. EXTRAS: Klasse!:5 Featurettes, Entfallene Szenen und eine Smurf-O-Vision 2 App FAZIT: Wer den ersten Teil mochte, kann getrost beim zweiten zugreifen. Die 3D-Version habe ich nicht gesehen, bin aber von der normalen BluRay auch schon begeistert. Kinder werden viel zu lachen haben, für uns Erwachsene ist es unterhaltsam und hin und wieder schmunzelt man mit. Ein Film mit Wohlfühlfaktor....
