What to Know

Critics Consensus

Troll doesn't rewrite the monster movie rulebooks -- but with mythology this rich and action this exciting, it doesn't have to.

Audience Says

Troll's decent visual effects aren't enough of a reason to sit through its predictable story, cheesy dialogue, and uneven acting.

Noel Murray Los Angeles Times “Troll” succeeds by getting back to basics. Like way, way back — all the way to the Old Norse. Dec 16, 2022 Full Review Meagan Navarro Bloody Disgusting While light on narrative, it’s when director Roar Uthaug embraces the film's monster that Troll reveals its magic. Rated: 2.5/5 Dec 1, 2022 Full Review Joshua Polanski Boston Hassle Troll plays its premise too seriously to be any fun and it lacks any socio-critical muster to be an effective disaster film. Jul 11, 2024 Full Review Lee Zumpe Tampa Bay Newspapers “Troll” is as much fun as any of the recent films in Legendary Pictures’ MonsterVerse. Oct 26, 2023 Full Review Aaron Phillips But Why Tho? A Geek Community With a perfect run time, some superb visuals, and a throughline of some brilliant mythology, Troll deserves to be watched. Rated: 7.5/10 Jan 4, 2023 Full Review Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies That often dismissed and maligned word “fun” defines “Troll” in a nutshell. It’s an eye-popping genre flick that delivers exactly what you expect from it. Nothing more; nothing less. Rated: 4/5 Dec 29, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

Daniel C. M Has a slower pacing from what you would expect from a Kaiju movie and feels cheesy (not in a good way) many times, but the acting, script and the monster itself alongside all it's scenes are very fine. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/05/24 Full Review asdaq d A movie with absolutely zero depth that's almost not offensive. I mean, if you want to have something running in the background, this movie is for you. If you wanna see literally anything surprising, something, you haven't seen before, this movie is totally not for you. It doesn't tell a story, it doesn't teach you anything, it kinda just exist. They even shoehorned muslims in, in a movie taking place in Sweden, in a situation where no one was asking for religion... But of course they'd do that. In the end though, they did make a movie and that takes at least a little effort, even if the script, the writing, the twist... are... very predictable to say the least. Don't spent money buying it, watch it for free on Netflix. Best. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 11/20/24 Full Review Gustavo R Norwegian King Kong , except is a troll. Interesting take of this mythological creature, good special effects 🍿🍿🍿/5 Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/03/24 Full Review Alec S Great special effects, but the acting is weak, the storyline clichéd, the characters one-dimensional and the plot full of holes. A palaeontologist goes in search of strange phenomena after a mining disaster, but she does scarcely a minute's worth of analysis before arriving at a conclusion - skepticism. An elderly eccentric (conveniently the scientist's dad) knows the answer. However, his outspokenness previously saw him dismissed as 'loony', so no one believes him. Once the eccentric's suspicions come to fruition, the scientist downplays the evidence, but then bureaucrats stifle the investigation and instead the military are engaged. Thereafter the clichés keep rolling in like a production line... Rated 2 out of 5 stars 09/28/24 Full Review Giorgio I La storia è avvincente e offre un'immersione completa nel mondo delle leggende nordiche, portando sul grande schermo un troll gigantesco che si risveglia dopo millenni. Gli effetti visivi sono mozzafiato, e l'atmosfera del film riesce a mantenere alta la tensione e il mistero dall'inizio alla fine. Tuttavia, un piccolo difetto risiede nei movimenti del troll, che a tratti possono apparire un po' meccanici, riducendo leggermente l'effetto realistico. Nonostante questo, il film rimane un'esperienza visiva emozionante e spettacolare. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/20/24 Full Review Gisele H As a big fan of Edvard Grieg I was hoping to see in the credits some indication of his famous work Hall of the Mountain King to no avail, so can't give this show five stars. Some visuals quite stunning other aspects somewhat missed point Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/04/24 Full Review Read all reviews
