The film is based on a story by Erica Rivinoja. The film follows two trolls who go on a quest to save their village from destruction by the Bergens, creatures who eat Trolls to be happy. A sequel, Trolls Princess Poppy: The Hidden Jewels Tourwas released on April 10, The Trolls are small, colorful creatures who live in an almost perpetual state of happiness, singing, dancing, hugging, and having fun all day. However, they are discovered by the Bergens, large, ugly, mean, and miserable creatures who can only feel happy by consuming a Troll. The Bergens imprison the Trolls and eat them every year on a special occasion, Trollstice. Princess Poppy: The Hidden Jewels, Gristle Jr. Chef promises Princess Poppy: The Hidden Jewels leave and find the Trolls herself, while secretly plotting to overthrow the monarchy as revenge for her exile. Twenty years later, an adult Poppy throws a big party to celebrate the Trolls' escape, despite the warnings of the over-cautious and egotistical gray Troll, Branch, that loud parties will attract the Bergens. At the party, Branch's warnings come true when Chef sees the fireworks and kidnaps Poppy's friends, including a "Zen" troll named Creek, whom Poppy loves. Poppy decides on a rescue mission alone, as no other troll is willing to venture towards Bergen Town, and is Princess Poppy: The Hidden Jewels joined by Branch who saves her from a group of spiders. Poppy and Branch find the rest of the captured Trolls being guarded by a scullery maid named Bridget. Poppy discovers that Bridget is secretly in love with King Gristle Jr. While setting Bridget up for the date with a musical Princess Poppy: The Hidden Jewels, Branch refuses to sing and triggers an argument with Poppy, revealing that, as a child, his grandmother was captured and got eaten while trying to save him, because his singing compromised his location to Chef, and that his guilt caused his color to turn from blue to gray. After Poppy comforts him with a hug, the trolls help Bridget, disguised under the name of "Lady Glittersparkles", gets her date with Gristle Jr. During this time, Poppy notices Creek being held captive inside the jewel adorning the king's mantle. Having helped Bridget, the Trolls attempt to rescue Creek from Gristle's room and steal his jewel but discover that it is empty. The Trolls are then captured by Chef, and Poppy gets shocked to discover that Creek betrayed them out to Princess Poppy: The Hidden Jewels Bergens in a cowardly and selfish attempt to save himself from being eaten, revealing that he wasn't a Zen and that his captive in the jewel was a trap. Creek lures out every troll from Troll Village via Poppy's Princess Poppy: The Hidden Jewels and they are captured by Chef and the other Bergen cooks. With all the Trolls captured, thrown into a pot and soon to be eaten, a heartbroken Poppy falls into despair and loses hope as she and all the other Trolls turn gray. Branch tries to sing " True Colors " for Poppy to cheer her up, confessing his love for her. Poppy, after regaining her colors and realizing that she has fallen in love with Branch, returns his feelings, and they restore all the trolls' colors, including Branch's. Bridget saves the trolls, willing to sacrifice herself. Poppy can't bring herself to abandon Bridget and, with Branch and her friends, shows Gristle Jr. The vengeful Chef refuses to accept the peace and tries to kill the Trolls, but is knocked into a serving cart, set on fire, and sent rolling out of Bergen Town with Creek, who is still in her pouch. Both species celebrate, bringing new life to the town. Poppy is then declared queen of the Trolls, and Poppy and Branch share a friendly hug. In a mid-credits sceneChef tries to eat Creek, but both of them end up being eaten by a hill monster.

The site's critical consensus reads: " Trolls brings its instantly recognizable characters to the big screen in a colorful adventure that, while geared toward the younger set, isn't without rewards for Princess Poppy: The Hidden Jewels. Lindsey Bahr of Associated Press gave the film a positive review and said, "Ultimately, the 'get happy' moral of the story, while trite compared to something like Inside Outis sufficiently sweet enough for its audience. Did you expect more from a piece of candy? Michael Rechtshaffen, writing for The Hollywood Reportercalled the film "an admittedly vibrant- looking but awfully recognizable animated musical comedy concoction. She said, "Make no mistake: Kids are going to love this movie.

  • Movie Review Múinteoir Ray’S Lesson Today Was All About Writing a Film Review
    Home Tuesday School 19th May Hub 1st & 2nd Class English Movie Review Múinteoir Ray’s lesson today was all about writing a film review. Here is the checklist of what to include in a film review: The film’s title. An eye-catching heading or opening line The creators - Director, actors etc. The genre - The type of film The audience - Who is the film for e.g. for what age group The plot – A short summary of the film that doesn’t mention the end Your opinion Your evaluation Check out RTÉ Home School Hub everyday on RTÉ 2, RTÉ Player & rte.ie/learn. Trolls World Tour Here is an example of a very recent film review (written for adults). Have a read and answer the questions at the end. “Trolls World Tour is a pitch-perfect family film” By John Byrne (https://www.rte.ie/entertainment/reviews/) Reviewer score: 4 out of 5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Director: Walt Dorhn Starring: Anna Kendrick, Justin Timberlake, James Corden, Rachel Bloom, Ozzy Osbourne It’s a reflection of the times we’re in, thanks to the Covid-19 pandemic, that this fun animated movie skips a general cinema release and goes straight to download. It’s a pity, as Trolls World Tour is a bright and bouncy affair that would look amazing on the big screen. Still, it’s a fine sequel and anyone who enjoyed its Trolls predecessor will lap this one up. Anna Kendrick and Justin Timberlake return as Poppy and Branch in what’s pretty much an all-star sequel to the 2016 musical hit.
