	Author	Review
United States	Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter	"[It] is a mediocre effort that nonetheless succeeds in its main goal of keeping its blue characters alive for future merchandising purposes."	NEG
United States	Owen Gleiberman Variety	"'Smurfs: The Lost Village' is pleasant enough, but there’s not much at stake, because no one stops grinning for long."	NEU
United States	Alonso Duralde The Wrap	"The film itself is an example that even the big, powerful, well-paid grown-ups who run movie studios can learn a thing or two"	POS
United Kingdom	Tim Robey Telegraph	"Under-eights may thrill to this, or they may, in years to come, confuse it with their first LSD trip. Just don’t say you weren’t warned (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United Kingdom	Peter Bradshaw The Guardian	"Both script and animation are entirely predictable, as if generated by some computer software (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United Kingdom	Nick De Semlyen Empire	"A microwave meal of a kid’s film, consisting of tired tropes and bland platitudes. This particular village should have stayed lost (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United Kingdom	Geoffrey Macnab The Independent	"The storytelling style here is far less zany and irreverent than in the typical Pixar film or 'Lego Movie'. The voice cast is intriguing enough but a certain soppy blandness comes with the territory (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United Kingdom	Chris Hunneysett Mirror	"A weak reboot for the boys in blue (...) All but the youngest of kids will struggle to be entertained, and the patience of parents will be tested to the limit (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United Kingdom	Kate Muir The Times	"Those little blue men in poky hats and long white underwear are back in a garish, irritating shoutfest (…) Rating: ★ (out of 5)	NEG
