Enter a colorful, wondrous world populated by hilariously unforgettable characters and discover the story of the overly optimistic Trolls, with a constant song on their lips, and the comically pessimistic Bergens, who are only happy when they have trolls in their stomach.
Although its well-stuffed visuals do dazzle, Trolls feels like something half-cooked: a kids' holiday diversion that certainly won't leave you Troll'd over.
Made in iridescent colour, Trolls is a wondrously zany and inane animated feature.
Perky troll Poppy enlists the help of misery Branch to help her find tufty-haired happy in a glaringly bright kids’ cartoon with songs.
This entertaining film offers fizzy family fun with a catchy musical number every few minutes and a strong cast that makes the most of their tailor-made characters.
Happy imps are pitted against hideous ogres in this knowing DayGlo kids’ film.
If you’ve asked yourself why on earth there needs to be a movie about Troll dolls, this doesn’t really provide a strong answer, yet for all its awkwardness and fluff-brained logic, its enthusiasm is infectious.
