Troll

About This Movie

Troll (2021) dives into a dark, gritty world where the lines between justice and revenge blur. The atmosphere is heavy, almost claustrophobic, pulling you into its crime-infested narrative. The pacing is deliberate, allowing tension to build, which feels almost palpable at times. Practical effects are used effectively, enhancing the rawness of the story—there’s a brutal honesty to the violence depicted. Performances are compelling, with a cast that seems to fully inhabit their morally ambiguous roles. The themes of injury and counter-injury resonate throughout, making you reflect on the cycle of retribution. It’s distinct, in part, for how it challenges typical thriller conventions, leaning into an unsettling realism that keeps you engaged until the end.
