A section of the central Norwegian mountain range is actually called Jotunheimen, named for the same Jotunheim in norse mythology. Greetings from Norway
Imagine waking up after a thousand years and learning you are the last one of your kind left alive. Then, when you try to search for others, everyone wants you dead. And at the end you suffer the most painful death possible. Forget Joker, this is the ONE AND ONLY movie that really shows the rotten side of humanity.
10:49 It did say Jotunheimen. Jotunheimen and Glittertind (2,452 meters above sea level), are Scandinavia's two highest mountains. Jotunheimen is one of Norway's most visited tourist areas. In 1980, 1,151 km² of the area was set aside as Jotunheimen National Park.
nerd fact inbound: the weird jagged mountain you see at the start of the movie is called Trollveggen (trollwall) a popular place in norway, i've actually driven at the road next to Trollveggen
I was so sad with the ending, the way they nearly got somewhere then the sun came up did nobody think to check what time it was when they set up the uv stuff. It broke my heart, he was all alone his family murdered and then hunted by us and he didn't even really hurt anyone only Christians lol
Speculation: The troll in this first movie was actually the child they used to lure the king into the mountains. The second movie will be about the troll king referenced.
Personally I think the Troll in first movie was actually the King and a father, who was searching his family and see all of them dead. I think the kid is going to appear in the sequel with the rest of the Trolls.
Just watched the movie then your review X) great job, and a fun movie, some things i noticed in the movie, the chamberlain of the king said that the old king that christened the country lured the troll king into the mountains with a child troll, and im just speculating, but i think the troll we just saw WAS that child after being asleep for a thousand years, one reason is when you see the protagonist seeing the troll faces in the mountain at the beginning, those where VASTLY bigger trolls, second reason, in folklore and stories, this troll wasnt really in the BIG big tier of trolls, weve even made movies with bigger trolls (jotun in trollhunter) and small stuff like they immediately thought it was the king, then you get the after credits scene, which is just foreshadowing, how it looked perplexed when it picked up the child skull and then looked at itself in the glass and didnt understand what it saw, and small details like that... so yeah, im convinced this troll was the child, now imagine troll 2 with the ACTUAL king, as big as a mountain XD end of long post =P
Theres not alot of traffic and people during the nights here, oslo has about 700k people living there, london has 8,8 million (if google is correct) all of norway has 5,5 million, so the whole country has less people than london. Empty streets during the nights are not uncommon.
Great action blockbuster with tales that are the backbone of norwegian folkore, a flick from a country with beautifull nature and culture ... good 7.2/10 for me..
This might sound crazy but in movies do they reuse soundbites over and over because I swear everytime someone gets killed brutally I hear the same scream. The only way I noticed it was from the TV show primeval every time a soldier died they let out the same exact scream as this Christian guy who first got killed by the troll. I know I'm not hearing things because that scream is very distinctive and I've heard it over several movies and not every dying person sounds the same so I'm assuming it is a soundbite
@@xwiick thanks I've felt that way about it since I was a teen but was already classed as weird so never would of asked anyone for sure just something I've always wondered. But they are still using the same soundbites from when I was in college. Mad ye, that scream always takes me back to the episode where the predators come from the future and just start killing everyone
Just to note the predators in that TV series are from the future where only large predator creatures remain after wiping out humanity. Someone in our world creates something that allows bat's to become the new apex predator. They sense thermal as well as follow heartbeats so there are ways to trick them. Omg if you havnt seen primevel you have to it's brilliant
I thought the exact same thing, it reminded me of the 90s godzilla movie which I love, so had to watch it. I watched it last night and was smiling the entire time but I'm curious to see if everyone likes it or just me
In the movie,they said that a troll is made out of rock and sand.it seems to me that a troll has a exoskelet the skull that is shown must be from a giant.a completely different species.but it was good entertainment
I know a lot about trolls from mythology, and as soon as I heard that injured soldier praying after the first firebombing of the troll, I knew he was dead. Trolls HATE Christian stuff. They can literally smell it. So, I knew it wasn't just because the soldier was whispering and the troll could hear him. Nope.
Troll is decent, but be glad that you don't understand Norwegian, because the dialogue is cringe AF. If you want to watch a truly good movie about trolls, check out Troll Hunter. That's 20 times better. Hilarious and really well made.
I'm assuming the empty street shits were talked during covid lockdown. I'm thinking most movie people saw the opportunity to get footage of desolate empty areas for future use on movies. They be stupid not to because it will probably never happen like that again and not cost them a ton of money to arrange
Thanks for watching nerds!
I just wanted this movie today. I loved it. I would love a sequel.
you should see the norwegian movie called trolljegeren and Askeladden ;)

So cool 👊

Just finished watching with my little daughter. We enjoyed it and it was awesome to know about TROLLS and folklores. Technically brilliant movie. 🌹

I'm Norwegian but i had too watch Troll hunter yet again too get this one out of my mind
Same. I am not even Norwegian, just married to one and live in Norway. This was subpar to Trolljegeren.

Trolls are the good guys LoL 😂

this was really good on the big screen !
I got excited as i saw your reaction and this movie is awesome
Love from Norway
You should watch the movie ''Trolljegeren'' too. ''Troll Hunter''. It's imo the better Troll movie from Norway.
Agreed, proof you don't need loads of cash
Yepp.
It really is Oslo. But wether it’s movie magic replica or actually filmed downtown, I have no idea.

The dubbed voices in this are actually OK they are not bad
You were thinking of Godzilla 1998 when you said worm man lol
I really liked this movie mate, 7/10 from me !
This movie is pretty good. I give 7.8/10
18:25 the troll was smelling kristien mans blod
Finally someone else that cares about the troll’s struggle

I just started watching this. I'm feeling it so far. 📺🎬😳👍🏽🕺🏽💜
Troll Hunter

Norwegian equivalent of “Van Helsing”, except good.

Yup, thought this fairy well known but good on you for catching it yourself

32:28 my sister saw that skull driving past her at some point lmao
copy I have is in Norwegian and English !
In the movie,they said that a troll is made out of rock and sand.it seems to me that a troll has a exoskelet the skull that is shown must be from a giant.a completely different species.but it was good entertainment
I think there’s kong skull island references in the movie.
17:07 this is just shooting to rocks

Really good
Troll was the coolest movie in Netflix I love this
17:57 he walk badass
Do you understand the norwegian?

This trolls too big.. everyone knows the live under bridges😂
Why does the troll almost look like a troll version of kratos or is it just me?
The English version on this one surprisingly wasnt that bad
19:22 that is just STUPID

You could just watch it in English

This is the original trolls, not that animated movie, trolls are myths, but

Why are the voices not in sync? with the lips was this movie originally filmed in another language.
