A decent found-footage effort that sidesteps some annoyances of the genre, but falls into the same traps. The trolls are interesting creatures. They look convincing and have cool designs. They are the only highlight here. Problem is, what little time they do show up isn't as stimulating as I'd hoped. I didn't care for the human characters and the action was a bit lackluster.

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.

A movie with a lot of potential that just never quite gets to where I wanted it to be. The story was solid, the found-footage aspect worked and the trolls looked pretty amazing but it always feels like just when it's getting going, it steps back. Not really that much horror but it is different from every other found footage film out there.

This is as stated here an adventure/drama. If you expect it to be a horror movie off course you will be dissapointed. A good watch about a different theme, with a couple of good laughts. I enjoyed it. " No trolls were injured during the making of this movie. " hehe

Oh the masses who are going to be so disappointed by The Troll Hunter. A clever concept, with convincing special effects, and some interesting ideas, but it's all for naught. The film never lives up to it's potential, and just when things start to get exciting or even a little bit creepy (which it rarely is) the scene ends. The special effects for a film of this budget is mostly impressive, the performances are convincing enough, it's just sad that whenever the film starts to get going- it stops. Thus The Troll Hunter is an admirable effort, but a failure nonetheless.
