Synopsis
After the monstrous Bergens invade Troll Village, Princess Poppy, the happiest Troll ever born, and overly-cautious, curmudgeonly outcast Branch set off on a journey to rescue her friends. Their mission is full of adventure and mishaps, as this mismatched duo try to tolerate each other long enough to get the job done.

Chicago Sun-Times
On all levels, Trolls delivers. It is nicely paced, the jokes are spot-on (and will work for both the kids and their parents) and, again, this is visually a very special piece of animated artistry. - 80
Variety
It’s an ecstatically happy movie, a giddy EDM kiddie musical that sends you out on a high. - 63
Slant Magazine
Trolls is a flashy, pre-fab product, but the animators are given just enough space to create moments of genuine artistry. - 60
Screen Daily
There’s more texture than might be expected from characters based on plastic dolls. - 60
Time Out London
Trolls is not break-the-mould brilliant like The Lego Movie or Toy Story, or a keeper like Frozen. But it’s a lovable and giddy guilty pleasure. - 60
Empire
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. - 42
The Playlist
The bad news, for anyone over the age of eight, is that it’s at its best disposable, and at its worst really, really annoying. - 42
IndieWire
Trolls is a spectacularly empty fantasia of bad songs, bright lights, and militant happiness. But there’s no denying how well the film bludgeons you into submission when it gets into its groove.
