The Smurfs 2,” in theaters now, marks the return of beloved characters from our childhoods and introduces us to a few new ones. Part live-action, part animation, this sequel to the 2011 hit movie brings back the Smurfs for another battle with evil wizard Gargamel — this time, in Paris.

“The Smurfs 2” features Neil Patrick Harris, Hank Azaria, Jayma Mays and Katy Perry. In this sequel to the family blockbuster comedy “The Smurfs,” evil wizard Gargamel creates a couple of mischievous Smurf-like creatures called the Naughties. Gargamel hopes the Naughties will allow him to acquire the Smurfs’ magical essence but then discovers that only Smurfette knows the secret spell that will turn his Naughties into real Smurfs.
