The Smurfs - 2011
Starring - Doogie and the Bluies
***
Yes, "live action Smurfs in New York City" may make you immediately suffer a gag reflex. However, as a glass-quarter-full person, you may also hear "Hank Azaria as Gargamel" or "Doogie Howser working for Sofia Vergara" and think of the maroon leggings and the reddish maroon lipstick and a smirk may appear on the corner of your face.
Put it this way, you know if you will end up here or not. Should you end up here, it's really not that bad. You may even find yourself laughing quite a few laughs as well. Azaria deserves a medal from adult moviegoers everywhere.
The most nauseating aspect of the film is the fact that Neil Patrick Harris is an ad executive for Sofia Vergara, and the fact is he's "lucky to not be fired today." Between this and Clooney's Up In The Air, we're certainly getting many CEO-friendly films these days.
However, had you ever walked through one of those steam-vents from the subway of New York City and thought you were in an Ed Wood vampire movie, you may find yourself enjoying the Smurfs.
