Troll

• Fantasy
• Action
• Adventure

A colossal troll erupts from the Norwegian mountains, triggering not a typical monster-attack scenario, but a government-level crisis demanding a paleontologist’s unique expertise to avert national disaster. Unlike standard creature features, this film grounds its fantastical premise in the tangible world of geological study and military response, creating a darkly humorous tension between scientific curiosity and escalating destruction. The narrative unfolds as a spectacle of practical effects and large-scale action sequences – particularly the vividly rendered military assault – showcasing a refreshingly grounded approach to mythical creature cinema, and a distinctly Norwegian perspective on folklore. It’s a thrilling, large-scale adventure fueled by practical effects and a surprising blend of scientific inquiry and ancient mythology.
