The Smurfs (2011)

I watch a lot of Conan O’Brien’s new show on TBS, Conan. I don’t get to watch every interview, but I am glad that I got to see the one where he interviewed Harrison Ford for Cowboys and Aliens. Since it was tied in the box office with this movie, he angrily ripped the head off of a Papa Smurf doll. Oh, how I wanted to do that when I saw this heaping pile of cat excrement (fancy words make you sound smarter, even [especially] when you’re talking about poop). The Smurfs is easily one of the biggest pieces of trash I have seen all year, and even though this has been a really good year for movies, there has been (as there always will be) a decent amount of trash. And this year, a movie that I hope will end up on my worst list of 2011 when I see everything is The Smurfs. Featuring the voices of *sigh* Jonathan Winters, Katy Perry, Fred Armisen, Allen Cumming, Anton Yelchin (the biggest sigh of all) and George Lopez as the Smurfs, this horrible movie chronicles the Smurfs’ tale after they are magically transported to New York City, followed by evil wizard Gargamel (Hank Azaria), where they find lodging with Neil Patrick Harris (no, that is the biggest sigh) and Jayma Mays playing a married couple who have their own problems that are way-too examined in the film, involving Sophia Vergara, which just makes me mad. This entire movie makes me just furious. The jokes are never funny, the scenarios make me scream, actually during this entire movie there were parts where I was screaming and yelling out of pure anger. My brother who was watching it with me was completely enjoying my frustration and pain with this movie. Seriously, I was yelling at the movie, at Neil Patrick Harris, at every single thing that was wrong with this movie. I hate this movie. I hate just about every single moment of this film, and I honestly hope that you will stay away from this horrible pile of trash. A few days before seeing this, I actually played with some Smurfs toys with my cousin. I launched Smurfs out of a small cannon and watched them fall to their doom many times. I look back upon those memories with nothing but pure happiness.
