Les Trolls 3

Branch (Justin Timberlake) and Poppy (Anna Kendrick) are at Bridget and Gristle's wedding when they are interrupted by John Dory. Poppy is surprised that Branch has brothers. It turns out that five brothers were members of a boy band. Brother Floyd has been captured by Velvet and Veneer who are using his essence to improve their performances.

Trolls are back. It's more of these brightly-colored characters doing their modern music classic karaoke. There is always a new generation of little kiddies who are entranced by the colors and the music. The parents will find enough to not get bored. Quite frankly, this franchise is like a series of loud drug-induced hazy parties and I don't remember much from the previous ones.

The movies was great and the best thing about it was the music , it was so much better than the previous ones. All singers were great , I loved better place and it takes two. Really good songs. My kids also enjoyed it and they loved viva just like me. Camila did a great job voice acting here!!

The plot was not as good as the previous ones but it's still really pretty and colourful and I love that. Also the introduction of new characters really did good for the movie plus the latin vibes by viva were awesome. At the end of the day I would just say that everyone here enjoyed it. Money well spent.

A cinema full of children (and parents who had to accompany their children *g*). Excitement. And then: enthusiasm. The cinema went with it. Laughed, could hardly sit still. As an adult, you have to get involved with the candy backdrop of the marshmallow world, like in the two previous films, as well as the boy band music, which of course isn't for everyone.

If you get involved with it, you'll be really entertained. A downright psychedelic firework display that, on the one hand, has one or two surprises also for the adult filmgoers in the subtext, but also in the spoken jokes. Ironically, these were the parts where the kids laughed the loudest, which I can't really explain.

There's nothing about the plot here - because, being honest, there's hardly anything you could really call a plot. Trolls on a rescue mission, but in the end it's just colorful, loud with a lot of music, singing and dancing, with music that wanders through the pop culture of the last 50 years and yet makes it its own in a completely new way.

Adults will either love or hate this film. There will probably be few judgments in between. But children will be thrilled.

Animation was great. Voice acting was great. It was even a good story. The actors and animators did their jobs excellently!

But there were far too many inappropriate references for a kid's movie (drugs, sex, etc.) and so the script needed to be more age appropriate. Granted, some of it will go over their heads but the "chaining me up on our wedding night" and "let's make out" and "the ring pop that gets you high" are just not appropriate.

I know this is common for kids movies (like Shrek) but this was overboard. I wasn't comfortable with my five year old seeing this so we won't be rewatching it.

Also, this is just a personal preference I have as a musician, there is way too much autotune in these movies. It's like listening to a computer sing.

Well here we are.., another Trolls movie folks... as if DreamWorks' winning streak wasn't going to last, yeah.. so I went to watch Trolls: Band Together yesterday since I saw the first two trolls movies, also apparently the Trolls franchise is much bigger in the UK than anywhere else?, so this is why you're seeing a review of the film early if you live outside of Europe, bit strange really but anyways erm... the movie was... perfectly fine..

It's exactly what you're expecting from a Trolls movie, bright colours, funky characters and jukebox music to keep the little ones awake?.., yeah Trolls is not exactly Puss in Boots: The Last Wish now is it?, it's really just a colourful distraction for kids and I think it's fine it's not made for me but it is the best of the three films which isn't saying too much, I'll start with what I liked.

The animation is the best in all three movies, it's visually eye catching, it's creative and there are a few sequences that do use 2D animation and it's used well, there are some good laughs and some funny lines, the villains looked quite cool design wise, there's this hairy thingy that works for the villains called Crimp who is the best character in the movie and gets the best laughs with a unique design, good voice acting the soundtrack is pretty good and I enjoyed "Better Place" easily much better than "Can't Stop the Feeling" and that's it for positives, there's more good than bad so to speak.

While it plays out just as expected and I did enjoy most of it, the opening song and even the climax felt like just a generic kids film using the familiar formula, it's not bad but since it flowed rather nicely and felt like a fun movie, just had a rather meh opening and meh climax, the two Bergens from the first movie Gristle and Bridget are in this a fair bit and a kind of unnecessary except they're getting married but even so, they're just a plot device, at least they scale back the other main characters which I am thankful for but still, could've done with them since we had enough new characters that worked fine.

So yeah.. I think it's passable, definitely a improvement over the first two films but not by much really, it has the energy, creativity, fun and exciting catchy songs that work with some funny moments here and there, but at the end of the day, it's just playing it safe, not like Paw Patrol safe but mostly as to be expected, so... yeah, take the kids to see it they'll enjoy it more than anyone else, it's not made for me and I wouldn't say it's Puss in Boots 2 or Bad Guys, but this and Ruby Gillman proves that DreamWorks are going back to making basic kids films which is a shame, but hopefully they'll get back to making great stuff.

I'm going to give Trolls: Band Together a 6.9/10.
