THE SMURFS 2 in 3-D, PG ( 1 hr & 45 min )

-

I went to see this today, Monday, August 5th, 2013, here in Vallejo, CA, at the CENTURY 14 VALLEJO for the 5:55 p.m. 3-D show in auditorium 2, 4th row ( counting from the front ), 7th column ( counting from the left ). The price of admission was $11.25. And I bought a $2.48 bag of bulk Chocolate Candies and a $4.50 medium 30.0 oz Powerade Mountain Berry Blast at the concessions counter.

Quickie Review: Now a world-famous sorcerer, Gargamel ( voiced by Hank Azaria ) obsesses about harnessing the Smurf-essence so that he can dominate the whole world with it! His Smurf-like creations, a pair of Naughties, Vexy ( voiced by Christina Ricci ) and Hackus ( voiced by J. B. Smoove ), prove to be big disappointments to him as he realizes that only a true Smurf can give him what he wants. He captures Smurfette ( voiced by Katy Perry ) to extract the Smurf-essence formula from her and to get her to use a spell that can turn the Naughties into Smurfs that he can further exploit. But will Smurfette switch sides and betray the Smurfs or will the Smurfs' love for her save her from the evil influence of Gargamel?

The audience liked it. But nobody gave it a "Hands Clapper" ending.

I liked it. It has a message about what a family is all about that won't be lost on the small brats who see this movie---One could only hope!

Be sure to stay around 'til after the Ending Credits when a Gargamel and Azrael Bonus Scene is shown.
