(EMAILWIRE.COM, October 05, 2011 ) New York, NY -- The 2011 Smurfs movie is the first animated 3D adventure of the lovable blue clan on the big screen. The movie begins when the dark wizard, Gargamel chases the Smurf family as they are making preparations for the Blue Moon Festival. The chase leads to the six of them (Papa Smurf, Brainy, Grouchy, Clumsy, Gutsy, and Smurfette) being transported through a portal that lands the whole gang in the middle of New York City. As they try to adapt to the busy world of human beings and tall buildings, they meet the Wislow couple (Jayma Mays and Neil Patrick Harris) who accept them into their apartment.
