"Smurfs 2" (2013)

2nd feature of a double-feature at the drive-in.  Not sure I would've chosen to go to this movie by itself, but that's the nice thing about features--you can find some pleasant surprises that way.  I hadn't seen the first Smurfs movie, but it wasn't difficult at all to follow the unique bits about this storytelling style.  The movie was nice.  I grew up watching the Smurfs as one of the cartoons we watched.  They did a nice job of the movie, I thought.  It was a mix of live-action and live-action-like animation (not sure how they did it).  Loved the cat Azrael.  It's worth it to see the movie just to hear and watch the cat--not that the other parts are bad.  They're nice, too; but Azrael is a treat.
