Troll Hunter Reviews

It felt like I was watching Nat Geo Wild. The way the culture was incorporated added an unsettling vibe that really stood out. I loved how they villainized the trolls and made them truly ferocious

this had the potential to be a good movie however it was way too long, there were so many boring scenes and the end was so rushed

Was ok

Ja etter å ha sett Troll måtte jeg endelig komme meg til og se denne klassikeren. Veldig funny

OG

Good

Rating: 7.4/10

Trollhunter is a clever, thrilling, and refreshingly original mockumentary that treats its fantastical premise with a hilarious and compelling sense of bureaucratic realism. Director André Øvredal delivers a perfect blend of monster movie, dry deadpan comedy, and Norwegian folklore.

Highlights
- Genius Premise: The screenplay is a work of genius, with a fantastic and endlessly creative hook.
- Iconic Lead: Otto Jespersen shines as Hans, the titular Trollhunter, a wonderfully weary and believable professional.
- Spectacular Visuals: The visual effects are incredibly impressive, with fantastically designed and animated trolls.

Criticisms
- Underdeveloped Characters: The student filmmakers are fairly bland and underdeveloped, serving primarily as the audience's point-of-view.
- Shaky Cam: The constant shaky-cam found footage style can be disorienting or irritating for some viewers.

Verdict
Trollhunter is a brilliant and wildly creative film that's a must-see for fans of creature features or dark fantasy. It's a perfect blend of spectacular monster action, dry deadpan humor, and fascinating folklore, making it a modern cult classic.

This is such a funny way to learn about Norwegian folklore. It's a comedy and not a horror though so idk why the tags are like that.
Love that it's filmed close to where I live lmao

Very underrated

Hell I believe it

Ikonisk

I love how realistic this movie is, and this is so good I can binge watch it over and over again

So fun and clever. One of the best found footage movies out there.

max scandi humour. very unassuming but deeply funny in its own way

If you can stand dubbed/subtitled/found footage films this is one to watch! I love the lore of this movie and pray that one day we might get a sequel with a big budget because honestly this is a gem with a heck of a lot of potential!

Acting: 7/10
Plot: 9/10
Overall: 8.5/10

8/10 this film is great, definitely recommend it

🥵🥵

awesome movie enjoyed every scene.

my 2nd most favorite found footage movie

Maybe the most grand-scale (in terms of storytelling) found footage movie aside from Cloverfield. Super fun, highly engaging, and great FX. Track this one down, it’s well worth it.
