WHY!?! The first movie was bad. I’ll watch kid movies every so often if they interest me. I grew up on The Smurfs so I had to check this out. I gave it a few minutes and couldn’t go any longer. I know it’s for kids, but can’t kids have better stuff to watch? Everyone involved with these movies are cool and could be doing something better. It’s just a weird movie with a weird cast. The animation doesn’t feel right for some reason. Some things just don’t click. This is one of those things for me. I don’t know how the first one was successful enough for it to merit a sequel. To make it even worse, a THIRD part is already on its way.
