With Rihanna starring in the upcoming 2025 Smurfs Reboot, we’re giving our THE SMURFS (2011) Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Analysis & Spoiler Review!!
Aaron Alexander and John Humphrey go full blue in this nostalgic deep dive into The Smurfs (2011), the live-action/CGI hybrid comedy directed by Raja Gosnell (Scooby-Doo, Beverly Hills Chihuahua). Based on the beloved Belgian comic and 1980s animated series, this family adventure catapults the tiny blue creatures from their peaceful village into the chaos of modern-day New York City after they escape the evil sorcerer Gargamel through a magical portal.
The film features a talented voice cast led by Jonathan Winters (Mork & Mindy, The Flintstones) as the wise Papa Smurf, Katy Perry (pop superstar, Jeremy Scott: The People’s Designer) as the sweet and sassy Smurfette, George Lopez (Rio, The George Lopez Show) as Grouchy, Alan Cumming (X2: X-Men United, The Good Wife) as Gutsy, Anton Yelchin (Star Trek, Alpha Dog) as Clumsy, Fred Armisen (Saturday Night Live, Portlandia) as Brainy, and Paul Reubens (Pee-wee’s Big Adventure) as Jokey.
On the human side, Neil Patrick Harris (How I Met Your Mother, A Series of Unfortunate Events) stars as Patrick Winslow, a marketing executive who helps the Smurfs find their way back home, with Jayma Mays (Glee, Red Eye) as his supportive wife, and Hank Azaria (The Simpsons, Godzilla) fully embracing the role of the villainous Gargamel in a delightfully over-the-top performance. Sofia Vergara (Modern Family) also appears as Patrick’s demanding boss.
Packed with slapstick comedy, magical hijinks, and heartwarming moments, the film includes memorable scenes like the Smurfs causing chaos in FAO Schwarz, Gargamel’s frantic chase through Central Park, and Papa Smurf’s touching leadership that anchors the team. Whether you grew up with the classic cartoons or are discovering these characters for the first time, The Smurfs delivers a colorful, family-friendly ride.

If you guys thought the Smurfs movie from 2011 was good, you should watch The Smurfs 2.
Katy Perry was the best to be smurfette then they had to cast Rihanna why?? So she can have her music be the entire soundtrack??
The finale battle is peak cinema. I was grinning and smiling so much in theaters as a child. 21 years old and this is still peak cinema
i fully recognize the CGI in this film is absolutely horrifying but hell, that didn't stop me from absolutely loving it as a kid! this movie was my whole personality age 9 honestly
This was such a nostalgic movie that I literally don’t hear from anyone anymore but I knew was still around
Say what you will about the live action movies, but one thing’s for certain, Hank Azaria was both perfect and genius casting for Gargamal!
13:30 No, that’s the new movie coming this July.
2nd movie ate u gotta watch it
I'm really curious what you guys would think about either the original cartoon, or the animated Smurfs movie (not the one releasing soon).
I grew up on the cartoon, so when this movie hit the theaters, my 10 year old soul was HYPE! Now that I'm older, I recognize this movie is very classic kids, but appeal to adults somehow. It's decent, a good time, but certainly not the best movie in existence. And I think I prefer its sequel. And I prefer Smurfs: The Lost Village: It expands on the lore a bit, and introduces some answers to some long awaited questions, I think. The cartoon will always be my go to though.
Nice Reaction by the way you two
good luck reaction to the sumrfs
movies
35:46 ok to clarify cus the movie really makes this misconception way worse but none of the Smurfs are canonically related
RIP to Anton Yelchin who played Clumsy
Awesome
The Sumrfs has had 2 live action movies, and 1 animated movie with a 2nd one coming out soon!
Also Fun Fact: Gargamel originally created Smurfett to try and "lure" in the other male Smurfs to him but she later betrayed him and joined the others.
POST THE DEXTER REACTION
I rewatched the 2011 movie in time for the new movie. I enjoyed watching the new movie.
I watched this short film on a WALL-E DVD I own.

I've always wondered, how do the Smurfs know what someone has said when they say "smurf" to everything?
