“Im a fan of the original Smurf comics and I did enjoy Hanna-Barbera show growing up. This being said… I didnu0026#39;t care much for the new CGI/live action movies. They failed to capture the spirit of the comic books and the idea to sent Smurfs to the modern times simply felt like a cheap excuse for product placement and toilet humor. Itu0026#39;s just another example of cashing on nostalgia… u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis animated short however was a pleasant surprise! u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe story was cute and did a good job capturing the spirit of the old cartoons. There was no force pop-cultural humor, it was just Smurf doing what Smurfs do best. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe traditional animation was done very well(I especially liked the way they animated Gargamel) The backgrounds made whole thing very enjoyable to watch thanks to the colors of the autumn setting.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eOverall it was a cute Halloween special and more hearth went into it then both CGI movies combine… I honestly would love if they made entire animated series if it was this good.”
