In Gargamel's attempt to gain more power by capturing the smurfs and absorbing their essence, he discovered that that there is another smurf village in the forbidden forest. Smurfette learned about this and joined by three other smurfs they sought out the the lost village of smurfs to try to warn them.
A couple of things I like about this movie, most of it regarding the story and how it has chosen to make a girl character, Smurfette as the main protagonist of this film. It has also decided to make a whole village full of strong women, the smurf version of Amazons. The animation is very crisp and the design is more or less consistent with what we saw on TV which was really based on the comic book that Peyo created.
What I don't like about this film is the way the story was told. I understand that this is a movie intended for kids and that a complex plot would be too bewildering for the young minds. But to me the story was just too predictable. Though I really appreciated that I was able to take a nap by a few minutes but the story's predictability failed to grab my attention.
