The Smurfs: The Legend Of Smurfy Hollow Review and Giveaway

Just in time for Halloween, everyone’s favorite little blue creatures are embarking on a spooky adventure in an all-new animated mini movie “The Smurfs: The Legend Of Smurfy Hollow”. The movie made by Sony Pictures Animation and Sony Pictures Home Entertainment makes its debut nationwide on DVD on September 10th.

Inspired by the classic tale “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow,” the Smurfs learn the value of friendship and family in “Smurfy Hollow”. When Brainy Smurf is favored to win the annual Smurfberry Hunt for the ninth year in a row, Gutsy Smurf naturally competitive side makes him set out to find out how Brainy wins every year by following him. Sure enough, Gutsy’s investigation takes him into spooky Smurfy Hollow and right into Gargamel’s trap. Can Brainy and Gutsy, with the help of Smurfette, put aside their rivalry before Gargamel captures them, or worse, will they come face-to-face with the legendary ghost, the Headless Horseman?

Animation veteran Stephan Franck (whose credits include The Iron Giant and Despicable Me) directed the mini-movie and keeps the franchise alive with a cute spin on Sleep Hollow with our favorite little blue creatures.

Featuring the voice talents of Hank Azaria (Gargamel), Alan Cumming (Gutsy), Fred Armisen (Brainy) and Anton Yelchin (Clumsy), all of whom reprise their roles from the film, The Smurfs.

Running time: 22 minutes
Rated: G

My kids are officially addicted to this mini-film-they have watched it twice a day every day since it was shipped to us for review purposes. My son is facinated by things that are slightly spooky but definitely not scary. Having grown up watching these little blue guys myself, I love that my kids find them as facinating as I did at their age.
The Smurfs: The Legend Of Smurfy Hollow is a cute story and one that your kids will truly enjoy.
