When the evil wizard Gargamel chases the tiny blue Smurfs out of their village, they tumble from their magical world and into ours -- in fact, smack dab in the middle of Central Park. Just three apples high and stuck in the Big Apple, the Smurfs must find a way to get back to their village before Gargamel tracks them down.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Jonathan Winters recorded Papa Smurf while in failing health; it was his final film role. The man gave us his last breaths for blue content.
This film exists because Sony needed to retain Smurf rights before they reverted to the estate. Art!
