Tara Brady Irish Times Kendrick and Timberlake bring snappy comic timing, even when the dialogue could be wittier. Co-director Walt Dohrn steals the picture as a high-fiving cloud-bro. Rated: 3/5 Dec 27, 2016 Full Review Jake Wilson The Age (Australia) I was confident Nicholas Stoller's Storks would take the prize for most obnoxious family entertainment of the year, but Trolls -- another garish, computer-animated comedy -- instantly lowers the bar. Rated: 2/5 Nov 30, 2016 Full Review Sara Michelle Fetters MovieFreak.com I didn't like it, not at all, and while I'm certain there are kids out there who will undoubtedly feel differently don't expect me to sing a different tune on the matter anytime soon. Rated: 1.5/4 Nov 4, 2016 Full Review Rolando Gallego EscribiendoCine Clearly like the fairy tale that Trolls is, the happy ending, in this case a very happy one, sows the possibility of the start of a franchise... [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 7/10 Apr 13, 2023 Full Review Victoria Luxford City AM Trolls may be one of the more forgettable (brand tie-in movies), but while its here everyone will be entertained. Rated: 3/5 Feb 18, 2022 Full Review Olly Richards NME (New Musical Express) There's nothing to really dislike here; it's too chirpy and enthusiastic for that. There's just a disappointing lack of effort to do more than is expected of it. Rated: 3/5 Apr 23, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews

Harriet R Fun movie, fun characters, fun songs. Cute storyline. Super fun for kids. I loved this when I was younger. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/16/24 Full Review Lisa M A fantastic feel good movie for all. Especially needed right now!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/08/24 Full Review Claire D Terrible Movie this should never exist Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 11/07/24 Full Review David M Forced into a rewatch by the daughter, it had more good gags and greater visual inventiveness than I remembered. It also has a weirdly dark central premise to provide jeopardy, which could probably have been engineered in a different way. A very starry voice cast isn't used as well as it could be, and it shoots for an Inside Out style emotional depth, but it doesn't get anywhere close to it, ending instead with an idea that's typically saccharine and twee. Anna Kendrick is enjoying herself in the lead role, and Justin Timberlake is a decent choice, but the script doesn't give anything like enough to most of the cast to do what they can. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 10/17/24 Full Review Ray M I HATE THESE DARN TROLLS!!!! I MUST DESTROY THEM!!!! Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 09/20/24 Full Review TROY S this is a movie for young viewers, but it is fun. silliness and a simple story. but frankly we don't have enough of them in this movie era. the colors are great, the animation is fun and frankly as an adult, i did enjoy it. this movie is pure escape. it is fun to hear the voices of such esteemed actors playing such fun characters. Sometimes i think so many reviewers feel they must pan movies as they don't relay various critical standards.. However, this one isn't one. i like many types of movies and this is one of them. a purely fun and colorful take on things. enjoy it for what it is and don't over think it! not all movies need that. it is great for kids and adults if you look at it as being simply fun! i am well over 21 and liked it very much! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 09/17/24 Full Review Read all reviews
