Definitely the weakest of 3 Trolls movies
26 November 2023
The second movie added some more of the worldbuilding while trying not to mess up the story told in Trolls 1. World has expanded by new regions and new troll settlements, each having their own music genre.

But in Trolls 3 we go beyond just Trolls (and Bergens) and go into some crazy new races... Puppet-like and uh.. whatever the main villains are. I am sure i've seen them in the popculture somewhere, but can't recall where. Either way they are ugly and creepy.

Also I just dislike how story from Trolls 1 (and even Trolls 2 to some extend) been either ignored, or forcefully bent to fit Trolls 3.

Trolls 1 had great songs. Trolls 2 songs were "Fine"... But in Trolls 3 songs, due to being boys band related, were just... bad. Maybe if i was teenage girl i'd appreciate them more.

The final scene, the climax of the movie was flat. Extremaly, painfully, weakly flat. Trolls 1 had pretty good lowest point, Trolls 2 really made it even better.. I think whatever finale Trolls 3 had just didn't fit and felt fake.

I don't regret watching Trolls 3, but I also hope Drewamworks will stop milking Trolls with more movies, because the writing suffers. First was great, second was good (with bits of jarring character personality changes), but Trolls 3 is just... meh.
