Les Trolls 2 : Tournée mondiale

There are more trolls in the world. In ancient times, the trolls divided into six different tribes, each celebrating different genre of music and each with their own music string. The Rock trolls led by Queen Barb (Rachel Bloom) intends to unite the trolls by taking the other tribes' music strings. Queen Poopy (Anna Kendrick) receives an invitation from Barb but Branch (Justin Timberlake) is much more suspicious.

This Trolls franchise has a specific audience. It's young kids who love bright colors and pop music. This one will appeal to that audience. It's very bright, and sparkly. Kendrick continues to be a great voice for Poppy. I didn't really recognize Bloom and Timberlake is not that distinctive. It does have great voices like Ron Funches. As for the story, it has a good concept. The ending theme is fitting. It's a simple sequel which works well. I do wonder if the next sequel should include a true villain. Barb never struck me as a true villain and her eventual conversion was never in doubt. Overall, this is a brightly colored movie safe for the whole family in the time of pandemic.

With all that's happening in the world right now, this movie is perfect. I liked the first Trolls movie, but I LOVEEEEE this one!! I love animation movies in general but this franchise is definitely some of my favorites. I think I may be a bit biased because I love both Anna Kendrick and JT, and their friendship offscreen too. But one thing I didn't like as is the fact that Anna's vocals are still not as featured in the soundtrack, even though she is the lead character.

It's a kids movie and my kids and I enjoyed it. Job done. People getting precious about rock music need to grow up.

It was ok. My kids (ages 4 and 7) lost focus many times while watching. The music was pretty good, but nowhere near as good as the first Trolls movie.

I still enjoyed Trolls 1 bit more. It packed bit stronger emotional punch.

Either way I'm happy I watched Trolls 2. It definitely isn't a weak sequel :)
