Troll (2022): Hey what's up guys. Today I'll show
you a Norwegian sci-fi Fantasy Film: "Troll"! Spoilers ahead; watch out and take care!
The movie begins with a beautiful shot of the Troll Peaks Mountain range like a Peeping Tom. A
little girl named Nora, is trying to climb to the top of a giant mountain, but she slips and falls
in the middle of her journey. Nora's dad playfully taunts her, after which they both reach the top of
the mountain, and take in the view. Nora wants to know more about the troll peaks; so her dad
says that these mountains were created by Trolls, the giant Monsters that were turned to stone due
to the sun's rays. Nora doesn't believe this fairy tale at first; but then, her dad makes her focus
on the mountains. Suddenly, Nora can see the faces of the trolls forming on the mountains, and starts
to believe her dad's words. 20 years later, at a dinosaur digging camp, we see Nora all grown up,
and working as a paleontologist. She is trying her best to find some dinosaur fossils, but her boss
tells her to give up, because their financiers are getting impatient. Luckily, Nora doesn't give up,
and she eventually hits the jackpot, when her shovel hits the bones of an ancient dinosaur.
The entire team celebrates their new discovery, and proceeds to unearth the fossils.
Meanwhile, a group of miners are entering a mountain to look for valuable resources. They are
booed by some activists who scream at them; but the leader of these miners simply looks at them,
and triggers an explosion inside the mountain. Now, the miners enter the mountain and explore it;
but a troll awakens inside like a sleepy pig, and lets out a roar. The miners try to escape
the mountain, but get buried underneath the rubble. The troll breaks out of the mountain,
and creates a massive crater; after which it walks its stoned muscles away.
The government agents learn about this, so they notify the Prime Minister as well. She is shown
some other pits that look like giant footprints, so she begins to worry, and tells her assistant
to recruit the best experts to analyze them. Assistant sends a military team to bring Nora
to Oslo, so that she can consult with the expert team. However, Nora isn't happy to be dragged out
of her passion project, so she berates Assistant when she reaches the government facility. Now,
Nora walks into a room, where the Prime Minister is trying to understand the
cause of the crater from her experts. Nora then takes her seat, and is told by
the experts that the craters might have been caused due to methane burst. However, Nora can
easily identify that the craters look like giant footprints. Right then, a hacker enters the room,
and reveals some footage that she managed to hack into. This footage is from one of the activists,
who was recording the incident when it happened. The experts look at the video,
and don't see anything strange at first; but Nora asks the hacker to play back the footage,
and points out a mysterious giant in it. Elsewhere, an old couple watches TV,
as their dog barks at something outside. Suddenly, they sense an earthquake, so they quickly hide
under their basement. There is some commotion, so the old couple waits for a while, before they come
out of the basement. However, they see that half their house has been torn down. Now, Nora offers
to join the experts for this mission, so the Prime Minister appoints her as a scientific adviser.
After this, Assistant takes Nora to investigate the old couple's home, because he has just
received an alert from the military about it. They head to the scene in a chopper, and are shocked to
see the broken house as they land next to it. there, Nora meets Captain Charm, who informs her
that there is not much evidence to be found, other than the giant footprint next to the house. Nora
stares at Captain Charm with desire in her eyes, possibly because he smells good; after which she
goes to question the old couple. Nora is unable to get any straight answers, apart from a few vague
descriptions; but then, the old lady tells her that she could hear a howling sound. After she
gets out of the house, Nora can smell something funny, and she calls it hyper nature. Despite her
efforts, Nora is unable to find any biological traces, so she asks Captain Charm to fly her
around the area. This happens to be a waste of time, as Nora still can't find any clues, so she
decides to go to her father for help. However, her messy father seems to have become a little crazy.
Father Messy flexes his messy beard, and points his shotgun straight at Nora's Assistant. Nora
calms him down; but then Captain Charm arrives, and she has to repeat the process again. After
vouching for her team, Nora tells her dad to put on some pants, and cover his smelly parts. The
team enters Father Messy's cabin, and looks at all the evidence of trolls that he's been collecting
ever since World War 2. Nora shows her dad the footage of the giant, and he immediately points
out that it's a troll. Nora refuses to admit this, because there is no scientific evidence to prove
the existence of such a thing. Regardless, Father Messy keeps talking about his conspiracy theories,
and maintains that trolls have been kept as a secret from the humans of Norway. He mentions
that Trolls had vanished ever since Norway became a Christian country, so Nora decides
her father is too messy to be of any use to her. However, Father Messy insists on coming along for
the mission. so he joins the team, and leads them to a spot in the mountains based on his map.
The team reaches one of these spots, but Father Messy says that the topography doesn't match.
Nora has an argument with him over their strained relationship, due to his fascination with mythical
beings. but then, she stops talking because she can smell hyper nature again. That's when
an eye opens from behind, and is revealed to be a troll. Captain Charm quickly starts the chopper,
so that the team can get inside and escape safely. They record the troll, and share the footage with
the Prime Minister and her experts, all of whom are shocked to see the existence of the troll.
Now Nora takes her dad to the experts; but he ends up fighting with them, because they don't want to
believe that a fairy tale monster has come back to life. Father Messy eventually gives up on the
experts, and walks away, after which the Prime Minister says that she will be taking military
action against the troll. Nora is against this idea, so she decides to go back to the dinosaur
dig. However, Father Messy doesn't allow her to give up so soon, and he motivates Nora to join
him in uncovering the troll mystery. Now, Nora manages to convince Captain Charm to take her
team along with him, to the spot where they are to fight the troll. Captain Charm is hesitant; but
eventually agrees under strict conditions. Later, the military gathers at the target spot, and waits
for the troll; but it takes too much time for it to show up. Nora and her messy dad take this
time to bond with each other over their past. Suddenly, the troll shows himself, and everyone
prepares to attack it. The troll halts and peacefully stares at the army; but Captain
Charm is ordered to open fire at it. Despite Father Messy's warnings, the army fires all
their ammunition at the troll; but it doesn't seem to hurt him even a bit. Now, the troll decides to
show the army his true power, and takes them out in a matter of seconds. Nora and her team hide
alongside a Christian soldier, who is chanting a prayer; but the troll is able to smell the
Christian soldier; so he attacks and eats him instantly. Nora and her team make a run for it;
but Father Messy decides to stay back, and talk to the troll. He manages to keep the troll calm,
much to everyone's surprise. but then, an army vehicle fires at the troll, and makes him angry.
The troll raises his fist to attack the vehicle, but ends up lethally injuring Father Messy in
the process. The troll walks away from the scene, after which Nora bids an emotional Rest-in-Peace
to her messy dad, who dies in her arms, but not before giving her some hints about the troll's
origins. Nora is unable to understand what he means, so she returns to the government facility,
while the army tracks the troll with a drone. Captain Charm says that the military is
considering attacking the troll with an air strike. Nora thinks that this is a very bad idea,
so she resorts to her dad's tactics, and studies some of the troll fairy tales and mythology. This
is when she realizes that trolls hate the sound of church bells, and figures she can use this as a
weapon. Nora takes this information to the Prime Minister and her experts, but she is met with
resistance, especially from a rude expert named Grumpy. Luckily, Captain Charm vouches for Nora,
so his Commander convinces the Prime Minister to give Nora a chance. The team needs to move fast,
because the drone has spotted the troll walking towards a family park. At the park,
a little boy takes some ice cream, and stares at a troll statue. but then, the crowd hears loud
footsteps and smells stinky feet, causing them to panic. The troll shows up with its smelly feet,
and looks at the boy while everyone else tries to escape the park. However, he gets disturbed, when
he hears the sound of church bells nearing him. Nora, Captain Charm, and his army pilots arrive,
with church bells attached to their choppers, and they use these bells to fight the troll.
This tactic seems to work at first; but the troll quickly fights back, and smashes all the choppers,
except for Captain Charm's. One of the choppers is about to fall on the little boy, so his dad tries
to protect him; but the troll saves them both by catching the chopper, before it kills them. Nora
and Captain Charm watch on in amazement as the troll walks away, until without traces of its foot
smell. The troll becomes a worldwide sensation, as news channels from all over the world discuss
his appearance at the family park. Nora and her team come back to the experts; but Nora is told
that her suggestions just won't cut it anymore. The prime minister takes her off the mission,
and then Nora leaves in a fit of rage. Now, Grumpy and the commander enter the room
to have a discussion with the prime minister and Assistant. Grumpy suggests using an untested
missile on the troll, despite the devastating consequences. The commander warns Grumpy against
this, and even Assistant expresses his concerns; but he is told by the Prime Minister to leave the
room. Assistant feels insulted, so he proudly hands in his access card, and resigns from the
job. but he has to come back, and take the card to unlock the exit door. He then goes to Nora,
and tells her that the prime minister is planning to evacuate the city of Oslo, so they decide to
work together. The prime minister makes a public announcement, talking about her failure to contain
the troll, and then she calls for the mass evacuation of Oslo to begin. Now, Nora tries
to understand some of the clues, mentioned in her dad's notes. Assistant mentions that he knows one
of the men named in these notes. That's when Nora uses the hints her dad gave her before dying,
and eventually connects the dots. She learns that she will find answers at the Royal Palace,
so she and Assistant rush toward it. there, they meet an old man, who recognizes Nora as
Father Messy's daughter. He takes her inside a secret lair, which contains the skeletons of all
the trolls that died off thousands of years ago. This is when Nora realizes that the current troll
is the last of his kind, and is coming for this place. As Nora explores the skeletons, she notices
that they burn, when they are exposed to direct UV light. So she immediately calls Captain Charm
to ask him for some help. but by now, the Prime Minister has approved the use of illegal missiles.
Due to the emergency, Nora and Assistant call the hacker to help them hack into the army's fighter
jets, and she happily agrees to do so. Then, they take a giant troll skull towards
the troll, to lure him away from the city. Tensions rise as the army brings in heavy
cavalry to battle the troll. One of the fighter jets comes within firing range, and is ordered
to release the missile. Luckily, the hacker manages to hack into the firing systems,
and she prevents the missiles from taking off. Now, the troll shows up in front of Nora,
and she starts to feel doubtful of herself. but Assistant gives her the confidence she needs. Nora
feels pumped, and drives right under the giant troll, after which Assistant takes the cloth off
the troll skull, thus exposing it to the troll. This makes the troll angry, so he follows after
the car in a fast and furious chase scene. Meanwhile, Captain Charm gathers his military men,
equipped with giant UV lights to fight the troll. On her way, Nora accidentally drops
the giant skull, and the troll gets a hold of it. However, he gets distracted by his own reflection
on a building, and accidentally drops the skull, breaking it into pieces. This seriously pisses
off the troll, so he vents out his frustration, by chasing Nora after her smelly hormones. The stakes
run high as the hacker gets caught by Grumpy, who then orders the fighter jet to fire the missiles,
now that the hacker has lost control. The troll catches up to Nora and Assistant, and almost
kills them; but they both jump off the car, right before he can do so. Before firing the missile,
the fighter pilot notices the civilians next to the troll, and notifies the commander about it.
The commander instructs the pilot to abort the mission; but Grumpy says that the pilot should
fire the missile. He tries to force the issue. but luckily, the hacker knocks him down, before
he can say anything else. Now that the troll is in firing range, Captain Charm immediately
orders his men to unleash their UV lights, and this tactic finally subdues the troll. Everyone
celebrates their victory; but Nora senses that the troll is in pain. so she turns off the UV lights,
and asks the troll to go away to safety. That's when the sun rises, and the sunlight turns the
troll into a boulder slowly, just like her dad had told her when she was a child. Now,
the prime minister shows up to thank Nora for her efforts, while everyone breathes a sigh of relief.
The movie ends with Assistant asking Nora, if there are other trolls hiding in the mountains.
