“Trolls World Tour’s” light and heartfelt mood makes it an enjoyable movie to watch. In addition, to artistic visuals, the movie delivers a great message for views about inclusion and embracing each other’s differences.
Amazon released the sequel of “Trolls,” “Trolls World Tour” on April 10, which was directed by Walt Dohrn and produced by Gina Shay. It included many stars such as Anna Kendrick as Poppy, Justin Timberlake as Branch, Rachel Bloom as Barb, James Corden as Biggie and Kelly Clarkson as Delta Dawn.
The Pop Trolls are told there are five other main types of trolls for different genres of music including rock, funk, country, techno, classical and rock. Poppy and Branch set out to find all the trolls after discovering they used to all be united before they separated over disagreeing which music was the best. However, Queen Barb and other rockers have an alternative agenda to turn all the other trolls to Rock Trolls.
The movie included colorful visuals that were very creative and engaging. Each troll world was very imaginative and has many unique elements to that location, enhancing the experience for viewers. For instance, at the beginning of the movie, Techno Trolls were in a neon underwater world.
“Trolls World Tour” features about 20 songs throughout the hour and thirty-four-minute film adding to the upbeat and happy mood of the movie. There is also a wide arrange of music including K-Pop, reggaeton and funk, which makes the movie appeal to more people’s music interests.
One of the downfalls of the movie is the way they personify different stereotypes of genres of music. Most of the trolls in a music genre all look the same, which doesn’t represent how all types of people can like the same music. Additionally, all the Rock Trolls are shown as evil, stereotyping that group.
The end of “Trolls World Tour” leaves viewers with a good message about inclusion and diversity. It inspires its audience to celebrate our differences and get along with others shown through the diversity of music.
“Trolls World Tour” is an entertaining watch, however, watching the first “Trolls” movie will help viewers have a better understanding of the background. The movie delivers with its unique, vibrant visuals and positive message to celebrate diversity.
Released on April 10, “Trolls World Tour” is rated PG and can be streamed on Amazon Prime Video.
