8. Trolls (2016)
While some may remember Trolls as the cute dolls with crazy hair from the nineties, kids now are obsessed with the movie starring Anna Kendrick and Justin Timberlake. It’s a musical, taking popular songs and remixing them to move the plot along as music tends to keep kids entertained. The popular music also helps the adults to focus too, letting them at least somewhat enjoy the movie.
Trolls follows Princess Poppy and Branch, two complete opposites who have to make their way to Bergentown and rescue their people. Bergens, a larger and meaner looking version of the trolls, are the trolls’ sworn enemies because they eat them. In the end, of course, music brings them together and saves the day.
