Trolls from DreamWorks Animation Hits Theaters Nov 4 + Giveaway

Sharing is caring!

Thank you to 20th Century Fox, DreamWorks Animation & General Mills for sponsoring this post with giveaway!

We are always looking for a new movie to see in the theater with our kids. Unfortunately it seems sometimes animated movies with good reviews don’t come around as often as we’d like. That is why I’m happy to see that Trolls,  the latest movie from the creators of Shrek, is already seeing strong reviews from critics. We love the Shrek movies and I’m happy to see another feel good movie I can enjoy with my kids.

So what is this new film about?

Synopsis

DreamWorks Animation’s Trolls, a smart, funny and irreverent comedy about the search for happiness, and just how far some will go to get it. This hilarious film transports audiences to a colorful, wondrous world populated by the overly optimistic Trolls, who have a constant dance in their step and a song on their lips, and the comically pessimistic Bergens, who are only happy when they have trolls in their stomachs.

TROLLS

After the Bergens invade Troll Village, Poppy (Kendrick), the happiest Troll ever born, and the overly-cautious curmudgeonly Branch (Timberlake) set off on a journey to rescue her friends. Together, this mismatched duo embarks on a rescue mission full of adventure and mishaps – trying to tolerate each other long enough to get the job done.

TROLLS

Utilizing music to further the film’s narrative, the Trolls soundtrack is produced by Justin Timberlake and features five original songs including songs by Justin Timberlake, Ariana Grande, Anna Kendrick and Gwen Stefani, in addition to a number of classic hits from the ‘60s through the ‘80s.

Check out this all star cast:  Anna Kendrick, Justin Timberlake, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Russell Brand, Zooey Deschanel, Jeffrey Tambor, Christine Baranski, James Corden, Kunal Nayyar, Ron Funches, Icona Pop, Quvenzhané Wallis, with John Cleese and Gwen Stefani
Directed By: Mike Mitchell; Co-Director: Walt Dohrn
Produced By: Gina Shay

    I have not been to a theater in over 20 years, but my wife and kids go all the time. She would be the one that takes them. Any time a new cartoon movie comes out, no matter what it is, they have to see it.

    I would take my five year old to see it, she has been sick almost nonstop since she started kindergarten and I’d love to surprise her with a fun evening at the movies.

    No doubt I’d take my little nephews! The Gogurt will be a nice touch too, they love eating them frozen & it’s such a healthier snack than ice cream!

    My kids are years apart in age..18,26,25, and 11. With that, I have 3 grandkids all ages 2 1/2 to just over 3. My daughter and her 2 best friends, along with my 3 grandkids are all in love with the Trolls. With this, I could afford to take all 4 of my kids and all 3 of the grandkids, and my 11 year olds 2 best friends and have a great family time out.
