Our little blue friends make their first 3D trip to the big screen in this hybrid live-action and animated family comedy that is the perfect excuse to get the children out of the blazing summer sun and into the air-conditioned sanctuary of the cinema. Yes, it is a calculated commercial enterprise with little soul but there’s still an apprecable amount of heart. Kids are sure to find it smurf-errific, smurf-ilicious or just plain smurfy. Adults will happily settle for smurf-ectly inoffensive.
