Utter rubbish. Both the storyline and dialogue is highly predictable and cliched and barely B movie standard. The film editor seems to have had a bad day - maybe like me thought the film was poorly written and directed. The film also falls foul into preaching the woke political agenda. Why do so many filmakers make films these days like they've just finished their media studies degree 5 minutes ago and now on a crusade! The public is sick of it - just get back to story telling rather trying to shove your political fanny in everyone's face. This film like many other Netflix and Hollywood productions these days, gives a thinly veiled poorly written storyline coupled with political undertones of feminism and environmentalism. The film portrays men as weak and to be mocked at, whilst female characters are strong..... yawn yawn.... Release Tate now and give him a film to direct and put it on Netflix. Maybe then Netshitx share price may recover. Summary - Don't waste 1.5 hours of your life watching this!

Better films than Troll have been treated more unfairly in this day and age. But in many ways, this is exactly the kind of goofy movie that you’d watch with your buddies after a long day. The characters are clearly defined, the tone is good-natured, and the visual effects are genuinely seamless. Uthaug often places his camera at ground level, and actively adheres to the laws of physics. For instance, the camera always feels like it’s attached to an invisible crane or a helicopter; it never feels like it’s floating in thin air, unattended. This roots the action choreography in a reality that is frequently absent in even the far-more-expensive Marvel movies. Troll doesn’t warrant repeat viewings, of course. It’s not that kind of film. But it deserves to be appreciated for its craft, and (even if it makes you feel old) its nostalgic tone.

It’s like King Kong but with trolls. Kind of copies kong’s origin story. Where he’s last of his kind and bla bla bla. Norwegian’s titan is kind of a light weight. Just wait for sunrise and he’s done for. It’s a cool fairytale, but doesn’t match up even slightly with kong-zilla titans. I guess it’s worth the watch if you like witnessing the monster through the eyes of dumb actors that continue to struggle with believing such a stupid creature exists.
