  • smurfs 13215000 peopel love smurfs

  • "so i had to see it, and its about smurfs!"

    no duh!

  • how was the 3D in this ?

  • It seems like film makers keep making these mistakes with IP's like transformers and now the smurfs. I DONT CARE ABOUT HUMANS OR MILITARY YOU STUPID DIRECTORS. I CARE ABOUT THE TRANSFORMERS AND THE SMURFS! sigh..... keep humans out of it.

  • @schmoesknow I haven't seen the movie, it's not really to my demographic, but I was surprised at the negativity towards NPH in this movie (I'm a big NPH fan). However, I love you're reviews so I'll trust you that he was overacting in this particular film.

  • grabige smell ha ha ha

  • lol the only real exposure ive gotten to the smurfs was the song "papa smurf can i lick your ass"

  • My friends persuaded me to see this movie (online). And I actually liked it. Considering the low expectations I had and that I watched it in a different language so I enjoyed it :)

  • I know how to kill the smurfs...hire Wendy Testaburger to do it!!

  • The Smurfs basiclly Alvin and the Chipmucks but blue

  • 12 people like The Smurfs.

  • awww, we smurf you too~

  • A 4 year old may love it, but they are a stupid 4 year old. Kids movies don't have to horseshit.....which is what this movie was...or smurfshit rather.

  • This movie sucked it was boring. as soon as they left the smurf vilage the movie went down hill fast.

  • Hollywood needs some originality. But they've already thrown Christianity under the bus, so don't expect to see any movies with a comprehensible theme to be coming out any time soon.

  • As a big fan of the animated show, I was very disappointed by this movie.

  • Yes, we didn't need them to go to new york. But we get to see the original village and papa smurf was amazing. I'm 38 years old. I grew up watching the cartoons. You two need to grow up and understand it was made for children. I was a child as a kid in 1981. The movie respects all the original characters. Unlike transformers. The movie was fun, but I agree you don't need the stupid pregnant couple. SO YOU ARE WRONG. I'm apurist and this movie fits the cartoon perctly somewhat.

  • @starwarsagent

    Not to me, this movie stinks and a complete absolute dead zone, the smurf village look terrible, the CGI is atrocious, the acting is horrible, the screenplay is a mess, everything about was trash, the cartoon series and the comic strip had charm, this one has none of the charm and it's humorless.

    Big, Big, Big thumbs Down, Big, Big thumbs down, Big, Big Big Thumbs Down, Big Big thumbs Down.

    On the smurfs.

  • Oh, Boy you two are idiots. I was an original fan and watched the original cartoons every saturday. And I don't hate this movie. I saw it last night and I liked it. why? because it's the actual smurfs and their characters. Now compare the smurfs to transformers? Transformers the movies were destroyed, the characters in transformers looked nothing like the cartoons. The smurfs were FROM THE CARTOON. it was original to the TV show. Even Azrael was spot on. Gargamel spot on. it was true to the show

  • smurfette isnt actually papa smurf's daughter. she was created by gargamel. just saying.

  • heck im almost fifteen and i loved that movie i think i was the loudest person laughing throughout the movie!!! :P

  • You fucked with the wrong girl

  • Some movies with animation and live action work magnificently well...this was NOT one of those films and never should've been greenlit. At least it wasn't as bad as Hoodwinked Too...Uggghhh.

  • yes the movie was pretty damn bad but Azrael was great.

  • please bring back cartoon movies like winnie pooh, some are getting tired of cgi im one of them.

  • Nice hat, Kristian.

  • All I could think when I saw this trailer was are you smurfing me? What a dumb smurfing idea

  • What's next? A Captain Planet movie? Oh wait..........

  • My BIGGEST beef with this movie (aside from Doogie Howser) if the fact that they never even thought of reuniting the (remaining) original voice cast.

    Robot Chicken can do it but these clowns can't?

    I do have to give a big hand to Hank Azaria; At least he's trying.

    ***BTW*** Papa Smurf isn't the "father" of them all; That's his tittle.

  • Well, Smurfette isn't Papa Smurf's daughter. She was made by Gargamel to trick the smurfs into one of his traps.

    The movie screwed up for being a time travel film and it is stupid to mix cartoony CGI with live action like that. Keep it in mid-evil times, make it all CGI and introduce a new antagonist, maybe someone that's actually competent.

  • The smurfs was ok. For more info please check our my upcoming review on it. It also sucked in 3d

  • It was an alright movie. Not as bad as everyone says it is.

  • Well no wonder why you hated the moive you u fricking hated the series

  • @ryangimson14 How do you explain me hating it then? I gave it a lower score than him and I LOVED the series

  • @ryangimson14 Or we all have our own opinions on movies. No opinion is right or wrong. Glad your mom loved the movie. Saying we have no taste isn't a mature way to discuss films.

  • @schmoesknow well thats my opinion :)

  • Comment removed

  • @ryangimson14 saying that you 40 year old mom loved is is no defense, a mom would. having had every bit of taste for a good movie driven out of her from years of watching these types of movies. it's a kids movie, a bad kids movie that's all there is to it.

  • omgg the trailer looks horrible! Why can't they restore cartoons in their original glory rather than remake it into something horrible. And why are humans always involved!! (another example: alvin and the chipmunks. blech.)

  • it sucks, but it's for kids?

    are you serious? so it's ok for a movie to be bad, as long as it's for kids?

  • @LenartS No one said that at all. What we said that it was made for 4 year olds. It sucks and parents will have somewhere to plpp their kids down to see it for an hour and a half. It won't suck for it's intended audience which is 4 year olds.

  • @schmoesknow 4:34

    Well, they will find it funny, because they haven't yet developed the taste for movies. And movies like this are certainly not helping. I mean, when you see a bad movie, you know it's bad. But if a child is exposed to bad movies frequently, he'll base his taste for movies on them. Bad movies are not harmful to society, but bad children's movies are a fuckin crime. And sorry, I'm not as upset is I may sound. You guys are ok.

  • @LenartS omg, no they wont. you are taking this way too seriously. Go ahead and force your toddlers to watch "good" award-winning films that they wont understand or be entertained by.

    Kids will like what they like.

  • @tigggy123 Dunno, I think good parenting is pretty important. And the movies you show your kids are a part of that. And I wasn't talking about "good award-winning movies", I was talking about good children's movies. Stuff like Ice Age or sth. It was an entertaining children's movie, but it was still well made and intelligent. Kids will like any shit you show them.

  • @LenartS I guess thats true. I love Ice Age! lol Winnie the Pooh would also be a good childrens movie to see rather than the Smurfs.

  • @LenartS dude im a kid and the movie sucked. Just by looking at the trailer u could tell it was gonna suck.

  • @LenartS that makes no sense. for 1 thing bad voice acting 2 bad coloring 3 bad graphics

  • No rational person on this Earth should see this crappy film. If you do, you're gonna regret it. You wanna see a movie with blue people that's good? Watch Avatar.

  • @nice315 avatar is over-hyped crap... in MY opinion.

  • @deathmap69lol

    Your wrong, Avatar is a great film in my opinion, while the smurfs is the single worst movie of 2011 nor any other decade.

  • St patrick Smurf disregarded what the guy said.

  • Give me a shotgun and show me where the those godforsaken smurfs live and i'll be motherfucking mother nature for the day.

  • I don't know what the companies were thinking....comic books have plot and can work great in movies but simple cartoons like yogi bear and smurfs never had plot it was just simple stories that is it. who thought this was going to work as movies really needs to get fired like right now.

  • @Kyoko019 the smurfs in fact were a comic strip befor they were a cartoon series

  • I'll just watch Robot Chicken Smurf sketches

  • "Garbagesmell... that's what this movie should be called." I'm going to have to let my 3yr old see this but I wonder if I should even bother with the theater... probably just wait for DVD. But, is it going to be worth buying? If so, on DVD or Blu-Ray?

  • @shadoehaze In the opinion of 14 year old boy 10 year old girl and 33 year old mother whom grew up with the smurfs the moive is a wonder full film to see (realy good in 3D also) But there is some ation that may not be sutabule for a 3 year old! tho me my mum and sister loved this moive and cant wait for the next 2 :) hope you see it

  • I never watched or cared about the smurfs either!

  • I hate when movies mix live action movies with cartoon style like this - like that Garfield movie, even stuart little to an extent (although the acting between the live action cast and the voice cast was oddly ok with that film). I just hate it, they should either make all the cast the cartoony style or make the characters look real (sort of like when editors put someone into a place via green screen and they change the lighting and add effects to make it match the scene - but for the style).

  • I watched this today and I swear i think I felt my IQ drop as I was watching it

  • i loved the smurfs as a kid and was looking forward to this movie until i saw the trailor.

    they should have kept the original animators and voices and kept the movie all cartoon.just like the original just a movie,is that too much to ask for?

    i geuss it is.lol.

    great video as usual guys!

  • I grew up watching the smurfs and actually really liked the movie. Still, you two are hilarious.:)

  • Smurfin' review as always, schmoes!

  • 2 people who watched this LOVED the Smurfs film

  • The only reason that I liked it wad because me and a friend were trying to sneak into a r movie but we almost got caught and had to run into smurfs and sit on the stairs and my friend and I were flipping out and when we calmed down we were cheerful and laughed at everything I'm 14

  • I have never seen the Smurfs cartoon. However, since I grew up in France, I did so with the comics in the original French, I loved them. But I agree with you guys that it did look like piss, and it is what it is

  • Why in the smurf would someone stop watching your show?? If they do they do they can go smurf themselves and that's the smurfin truth !!! ROFLMAO JP

  • definitely won't be seeing this. 

  • i watched the smurfs as a child, i sang their songs, and i owned many smurf video games. I WILL NOT WATCH THIS SMURFING MOVIE.

  • it did suck anyways great review.

  • It may be a film for kids, but the whoevers that were involved in making it have to remember that the kids they're making it for didn't grow up watching the cartoon, adults did, and they don't want to see something that they grew up watching ruined in such a way. If that makes sense...

  • I hate the "It is what it is" excuse. Just because something's terrible that you expected to be terrible doesn't mean it's somehow okay for that thing to be terrible.

  • @thegodofallchickens No one is saying it is ok that it is terrible. It is a disgrace and shouldn't have been made. The movie should have stayed in Smurf village. My point is you see this trailer, you know it is terrible so no one should be surprised when it is piss, hence it is what it is.

  • @schmoesknow plus whats wrong with cartoon movies? f*ck cgi

  • Half of the reason why I continue to watch you guys is because of the hilarious bits at the end of just about all of your videos. You guys always make my day.

  • cgi smurfs....katy perry.....new york.....made money.....yet another mid 80s show to fall victim to hollywood.....I i really do smurfing hate humanity some times

  • Your video count reached PI!

  • @zakalone007 I'm sorry but I watched Scott Pilgrim, I found it very boring until he got to the Indian dude, that part was kinda cool but the rest of the movie wasn't very good.

  • NPH......ur above this movie man.....ur above this....

  • Thanks for reminding me how smart I was to never have kids. I'm with you Mark. Go Azreal! eat those little blue gremlins! This is one trend that annoys me. Movie Ex "It's for kids, so we don't have to bother making it any good. The 4 year olds won't know the difference and their parents will buy tix anyway" jeez guys...

  • 3D?

  • @zakalone007 As opposed to any other humanity out there. We should have let Neanderthals became the dominant species.

  • "This is a dark review" And of all movies!

    *Looks at The Smurfs* Aoh mah gawed dey tricked me.

  • haha the ending was funny man. Good review schmoes

  • @zakalone007 The audience that Pilgrim was aimed at didn't respond and Smurfs target audience did, all it takes sometimes.

  • @zakalone007 ha

  • i'm going to sub you guys now

  • @smallpoo22newer Thank you! And yes we will be reviewing FD5

  • sooo is this movie a lot like enchanted or something?

    cartoons from another world end up in New York

    :\

  • @rezkat03 More or less yeah

  • I have one reason...and one reason only....to see the smurfs movie. Katy Perry is doing the voice of Smurfette. I don't see any POSSIBLE reason I could receive hate for that XD

  • @MeenyMcSweeny She was fine, didn't bother me

  • Who directed this movie? I feel like the people who make movies like this probably know that they suck, But as long as the cash flow comes in they will continue doing this. Even directors who have made great movies are sometimes guilty of making crapfests as long as they know parents will take kids to see it anyway. Do i even need to mention Airbender?

  • @Schmoetard Look at the director of this film, look at his credits, it will say it all

  • hahahaha you gotta kill clumsy that part cracked me up

  • @imdonewitit He is just such a liability. 

  • Your ending was smurfing awesome!

  • Thank you!

  • Good review ! I'm NOT going to watch.I had a feeling it was going to be a steaming piece shit.Excuse my French.

  • @killerrodan Steaming pile of smurf?

  • @schmoesknow yup.Steaming pile of blue smurf. : )

  • Whenever I see Dane Cook on TV, I see Kristian

  • Tell him to send me a check

  • hey schmoes, do you write scripts for your reviews or just press record and be naturally funny?

  • @MrHUddin We know the points we want to hit and then we go

  • Smurf autocorrect... If he wants to see the Smurfs

  • *same

  • In Mexico, The Smurfs is going to come out at the dame time than Super 8 and Horrible Bosses.... Let's just hope Super 8 wins this (I have a 7-year-old brother and I don't gibe a smurf if he santa to see The Smurfs)

  • @qwertyuiop22ful Well hopefully you can avoid it

  • i wanna see it even though i knew it would suck since i saw the first trailer. And i hate George lopez!!!!!!

  • @CoZac12517 Not a huge Lopez fan myself, don't hate him but I don't think he was the right choice for grouchy.

  • Did Mark appear in a CarFax ad.

  • @JustAwesomeT He did indeed, two of them. They can be found in our favorites

  • "You smurfed with the wrong girl"

    4:12

  • @zakalone007

    I also heard that the Yogi bear movie made a lot money.

  • @civilwarfare101 Yeah these things make cash

  • great review guys

  • @WiseAnt Thanks Ant

  • I sort of never liked watching Smurfs, but I so loved Winnie the Pooh. Because Winnie had that dark cinematography sometimes, and innocent things were sometimes potrayed as awful monsters. And it worked. The feel of Winnie was always good. For the love of all that's sweet, leave Gummi Bears alone hollywood. Leave it alone!

  • @avernikas I think they are safe but I could be wrong who knows

  • When I went to IMAX to see Harry Potter and Deathly Hallows Part II I saw that the billboards were all blue... replaced by SMURFS 3D. I JUTST GOT SMURFED!!!

  • @ShreyanHota Those little blue bastards

  • this movie is smurfed up

  • @619ck154 Beyond

  • I like to think that if I was a kid, I'd have better sense than to see this movie. Yeah, I'm gonna go with that.

    Still, great review.

    Just listened to you on the Adam Carolla podcast as well. Nice job guys.

  • @mrebyers Thanks for listening mreb, glad you enjoyed it. 

  • Is this worse than Sanctum? Because you guys gave that a worse grade and I'm wondering.

  • @InsaneBurger No because you knew this movie would be exactly what it looks like in trailer, knew it would be a shitty cash grab for kids. Sanctum teased you with "Mind-blowing" 3D and produced by James Cameron and gave you piss on a platter. Sanctum is worst movie of the year hands down

  • @InsaneBurger But in your review for Priest I thought you said that was the worst.

  • @HiroNakamura16 Ha, drastic!

  • @mattffx10 ha, well i will not be paying you anytime soon for that

  • As someone who was a fan of the smurfs cartoon as a kid and who used to be scared of Gargamel (misspelled),seeing the live-action Gargamel REALLY creeped me out for some reason - perhaps because he represents this kidnapper/molester of children... *shudder*

  • @lifeaquatic2000 He is a creepy character, in the cartoons, didn't he want to eat the smurfs? He wants their essence in this fartbox

  • Smurf this shit !

  • @Adastra14 Ha

  • Um...I couldn't help but notice that bit from "Wild Thing" by Ton Loc that played during the trailer, and I can't help but remember that the exact same song was used in the trailer for "Garfield". Why is that? Do all kid's movie trailers now contain an ironic use of "Wild Thing"? And why do I remember the "Garfield" trailer so clearly? WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME???????????????

  • @CineRam Because you are a lover of all things film, and Garfield scarred you, it happens

  • Best review ever

  • @NoahOfTheYork Ha, appreciate that Noah

  • this was hilarious, shit movie funny review

  • @mhammer1777 Thank you!

  • Dane Cook and Topher Grace are movie critics?

  • @TheJuanPalencia Wow, this comment got 31 thumbs up?? hahaha

  • Ellis flashin the chest hair--I may like Smurfs more than that!

  • @raptorrancher The chimp is preparing for Rise of the apes

  • Damn blue people, they always screw everything up

  • @RedEggsCereal They were actually the best part it was the damn humans!

  • It was funny, when I got out of seeing cowboys and aliens, I saw a little kid coming out of the surfs crying, I wonder why

  • @MafiaMovieMan Smart kid

  • hahaha, ohh smurf was this review so smurfing funny as smurf. I mean, SMURF!

    it seems that you guys had a lot of fun with this piece of dog smurf

  • @TRexCoffee We did, we couldn't hate it because we knew exactly what it would be going in

  • Does that Gargamel dude get run over by things often cause I saw him get run over both by a log and by a bus in the trailer.

    Don't worry guys these kind of jokes won't drive away anyone from watching your show.

    Keep up with the movie-you-saw-related kind of jokes.

  • @Urgiapain He gets smashed with stuff throughout the film. Thanks Ur, we will keep up the nonsense!

  • I agree with you guys. always look forward to your reviews.

  • @dhshush Thanks dh, that means a lot to us

  • I loved the Smurfs as a kid, eventhough I was not from that generation, it was my mum who showed the cartoon to me. I also had Smurf toys, they were so adorable. But seriously, this movie looks like dogcrap. Also, I'm so disappointed NPH was involved in it. Why Neil, why???

  • @TheAquaticCat Cash grab my friend, cash grab for the Doogmeister

  • Surprised you didn't have black nerd comedy in the review. This movie looked like it was going to be bad. Glad I didn't see it

  • @theredknite1 He will be back soon

  • That was so smurfing funny! The end got me laughing so smurfing hard. You guys are the SMURF! Keep smurf like this coming, because you made my smurfing night! SMURF!

  • @crazygirl1502 Thanks crazygirl! Glad you enjoyed the review!

  • I don't remember Scottish Smurf from the cartoons.

  • @henrik6754 Me either but I don't remember grouchy smurf being George Lopez

  • heh..."Winnie the Pooh Goes to Los Angeles"..now THAT WOULD BE SAD!

  • @christianfilmer1500 "battle:100 acre woods" now that would be weird

  • @MrJorge006

    lol

    Pooh: TIGGER get you're Smurfing A%& to that tree house and TAKE OUT THAT BLASTED OWL WITH THE SHOTGUN!!!

    pIGLET:oh..I'm shot!

    Pooh:,Oh YOU PATHETIC EXCUSE OF OF PIG.!! GET BACK OUT THERE AND SHOOT "General rabbit" down with the 40cal carrot MACHINE GUN!!!!

  • @christianfilmer1500 *after an hour of battle tigger finally shoots down owl*

    Tigger:any last words

    Owl:go to hell

    *Tigger shoots owl in the head*

    Pooh:good job Tigger >:)

    

  • @MrJorge006

    yeah.....this ( ^^) would be such a weird movie!

  • @christianfilmer1500 i know right....... we should write the script for that movie
