However, they are discovered by the Bergens, large miserable creatures, who can feel happy only after eating a Troll. The Bergens imprison the trolls and eat them every year on a special occasion, called Trollstice. The Trolls, led by their king, King Peppy, with his baby daughter, Princess Poppy, escape through underground tunnels on the day of Trollstice, when young Prince Gristle was going to eat his first Troll. Enraged, Gristle 's father King Gristle I banishes his Chef who was in charge of the Trollstice preparation. 20 years later, Poppy throws a big party to celebrate the Trolls ' escape, despite the fears and warnings of the gray troll, Branch, that loud parties will attract the Bergens. A Zen troll who Poppy has a crush on named Creek arrives, and tells Branch to start being happy instead of being grumpy ; Branch refuses. At the party, Branch 's fears come true, when Chef sees the fireworks and kidnappes Guy Diamond, Biggie with Mr. Dinkles, Fuzzbert, Smidge, Satin with Chenille, D.J. Suki, Cooper, and Creek ( which Poppy tried to rescue ). Chef, along with the kidnapped Trolls, went back to Bergen Town. Alone inside the bunker, Branch looks at a bunch of homemade party invitations, indicating that he does want to go to the parties, and that Branch had a serect romantic unrequited love, for the princess. Meanwhile, Poppy goes on a rescue mission alone, as no other troll is willing to venture to Bergen Town, including Branch. But later on, when Poppy gets into trouble, she is saved by Branch, who thinks she will not make it if she goes alone. Once inside the Bergen king 's castle, Poppy and Branch witness Creek apparently get eaten by King Gristle, but Poppy remains hopeful that Creek survived. 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 and offers to help her get a date with the king, while trying to confirm if Creek is alive. While setting Bridget up for the date, Branch refuses to sing and triggers a argument with Poppy, revealing that, as a child, his grandmother was captured and got killed, while trying to save him, because his singing compromised his location to Chef. Branch 's guilt and shame over, his grandmother 's death caused his colour, to turn from blue to gray. After Poppy comforts him with a hug, Branch decides to help Bridget and the trolls, though he still refuses to sing. Bridget, disguised under the name of ' Lady Glitter Sparkles ' gets her date with Gristle, at a roller rink and arcade restaurant and, Gristle asks her to be his `` plus one '' at Trollstice. 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 are shocked to discover that Creek sold them out, to the Bergens to spare himself from being eaten. Creek lures out every troll from Troll village, and they are captured by Chef and the other Bergen cooks. With all the Trolls captured and soon to be eaten, Poppy loses hope as she, and all the other Trolls, turn gray when she starts to cry. Branch sings True Colors for Poppy to cheer her up, and also confesses his romantic feelings for her. Poppy, after regaining her colours, returns Branch 's feelings, and they both end up restoring all the trolls ' colours including Branch 's. Bridget saves the trolls, willing to sacrifice herself. Poppy wishes to return the favour, and with Branch and her friends, shows the Bergens that Bridget was Lady Glitter Sparkles and that they too, can find happiness within themselves instead of, eating the Trolls. Chef refuses to accept the, peace and tries to kill the Trolls, but is knocked into a serving cart that is, sent rolling out of Bergen Town. Chef is set on fire with Creek, in her pouch and ( in the mid-credits ) are consumed by, a giant monster. Both species celebrate, bringing new life to the town and renewing the life of, the troll tree. Poppy is then declared queen of the Trolls, and Poppy and Branch share a romantic hug.

'' Andy Webster of The New York Times said, `` Exuberant, busy and sometimes funny, DreamWorks Animation 's Trolls is determined to amuse. '' The Hollywood Reporter called the film `` an admittedly vibrant - looking but awfully recognizable animated musical comedy concoction.

'' Betsy Bozdech of Common Sense Media gave the movie 4 stars. She said, `` Make no mistake : Kids are going to love this movie. Trolls is cute, it 's colorful, it has tons of catchy songs, and the messages are positive and easy to understand ( happiness is inside everyone, if you know where / how to find it, and you should n't have to change who you are to get someone to like you ).
