Why Families Are Loving Smurfs
This isn’t the Smurfs you remember from Saturday morning cartoons. It’s bigger, bolder, and seriously star-studded.
- The Story: When Papa Smurf is captured by evil wizards, Smurfette leads a daring rescue to save Papa Smurf, and maybe the universe.
- The Cast: Rihanna, John Goodman, Daniel Levy, Sandra Oh, Octavia Spencer … the lineup is as dazzling as it is blue.
- The Music: Along with Rihanna’s original track “Friend of Mine,” the soundtrack features new music by Tyla, Desi Trill featuring DJ Khaled, Cardi B, Natania, and Subhi. Get ready for it to take over your family playlist.
At its heart, Smurfs is about friendship, courage, and discovering who you really are. It’s the kind of movie you’ll feel good about your kids watching (and that you’ll enjoy too).
