The Troll Hunter offers high-caliber entertainment despite a low-budget production.

One of the many pleasures of the Norwegian director André Ovredal's clever and engaging mock documentary Trollhunter is the way it plays with the idea of the supernatural rule book.

Excellent movie. Moves quickly, special effects were much better than I expected. Great story. Amazing sound.

Excellent movie. Moves quickly, special effects were much better than I expected. Great story. Amazing sound. Netflix had been trying to recommend this to me for a long time. Glad I finally acquiesced.

Before Trollhunter is done with, the truth about these fairy-tale creatures - they gnaw on trees and truck tires, can be turned to stone by exposure to light, and have something against people who believe in Christ - is revealed.

Plays like the Brothers Grimm meets "Cloverfield" with a hint of Monty Python-esque ridiculousness. For a small indie film from Norway, Trollhunter rocks it gargantuan style and then some.

What Trollhunter isn't is particularly scary, but in its defense, it's not trying to be.

As de-mythologizings go, Trollhunter has neither the wit, nor art, nor social insight to honor the legacy of George A. Romero's "Martin."

This is what happens when the Norwegians try to make their own "Blair Witch Project": We get three-headed trolls that hate Vitamin D and references to "Deliverance."

An entertaining movie. It has some flaws, but the movie is build up in a way that makes it ok. Like how the characters react in some situations, but the movie does`nt try to be anything more than it is. You have to watch it with a "Twinkle in the". It has some elements "from the real world" mixed in it (sorry my bad English), who makes it very funny, but maybe only Scandinavians pick this up. I think its entertaining for everyone who likes the genre, but maybe you have to be from Norway/Scandinavian to pick up everything that makes it a 10..

Dinámica y entretenida en varios momentos, pero en otros parece divagar demasiado aburriendo un poquito, sin embargo esta bien hecha, la fotografía y paisajes son bellisimos.

This is pretty alright. It's fun at times but it is what it is and nothing more. I'm not sure it has aged the best since the found footage genre has died down. It really doesn't "feel" real or authentic. I guess it's not supposed to? Again, it's alright.

The trolls in the movie are pretty damn big would other people see the trolls walking down a hill or over the freaking city, the visual effect's are Okay looking I mean they are not the worst CGI that I seen I just think it looks a bit like a game when the move around and the final nick pick that I have is the movie reminds me of shadow of the colossus. the trolls in the movie are really scary and frightening at times.
