Trolls Movie Review - Most Watched Movie on Netflix

*Trolls* (2023) is a Norwegian monster-thriller film directed by Roar Uthaug. This film adds a fresh, modern twist to the traditional folklore of trolls, known in Scandinavian myths. In the movie, a massive, ancient troll awakens from its slumber deep within the Norwegian mountains and begins a path of destruction across the country. The government and military are powerless against the creature, so they enlist the help of an expert, Nora, who is played by Ine Marie Wilmann. Nora, a paleontologist who has spent years studying trolls, soon realizes that she must use her knowledge of the ancient creatures to stop the terror.

The movie builds tension through its pacing, emphasizing the colossal scale of the troll in contrast with the vulnerable human characters. The CGI used to bring the troll to life is impressive, especially in the grand scenes where the monster looms over cities. Much like other kaiju films (think *Godzilla* or *King Kong*), the emphasis is not only on the creature’s rampage but also on the human struggle to survive and defeat it.

*The film* explores themes of nature versus civilization, warning about the consequences of humans disturbing nature in their quest for progress. It’s a modern take on the creature feature genre, blending action and suspense with mythology and eco-commentary. *Trolls* isn’t necessarily groundbreaking but offers an enjoyable monster movie experience, rich in action and visual effects, with a uniquely Norwegian flavor.

Critics have highlighted the film's ability to balance large-scale spectacle with grounded human drama, despite the somewhat familiar premise. *Trolls* is a great pick for fans of monster movies looking for a high-stakes, visually striking thriller.
