Plot:
TROLLJEGEREN var årets store sensasjon på kino i 2010. I tillegg til å bli en av de best besøkte på norske kinoer ble den også norsk films største eksportsuksess gjennom tidene.

TROLLJEGEREN var opprinnelig lansert som en grensesprengende dokumentar, men ble raskt avslørt som en bred publikumsfilm som både er morsom og spennende - med visuelle effekter i verdensklasse!

I korte trekk handler TROLLJEGEREN om tre studenter ved medielinjen i Volda som får skoleoppgave å lage dokumentarfilm om en lokal personlighet. De velger å fokusere på en folkesky mann som de tror er krypskytter. Men etter hvert som han åpner seg for ungdommene avdekkes sider ved det norske samfunnet som får senere tiders medialekkasjer til å blekne. Her dreier det seg om myndighetenes bevisste handling for å føre det norske folk bak lyset gjennom mange generasjoner...

My Thoughts:
Wll, this will be a difficult one for me to rate. Its clearly a silly child movie with a story about a trollhunter in norway.And its a lost and found footage too, to make it seem more real. And we get some silly moments here and there. But we actually get some pretty cool moments aswell. Not the best movie i've seen in the Adventure genre. But the movie get a plus from me, since most of the movie is filmed only 1 hour outside the city where i am from and live. I'm actually not sure if i would recommand it or not.

My Thoughts:
This is one from Danea Cassandra's collection. One that is definitely different then my normal type of film to watch. I found it to be very interesting... but at the same time a little too slow for my taste. I can see myself watching this one again... thouh it wouldn't be a frequent watch for me.

My Thoughts:
Another good movie in the series. The movie starts off a bit after the first movie ended. And we are in a hospital this time. Where we follow one of the surivors. And ofc in a horror flick and hospitals, bad things happens. For me this is maby the best Norwegian\Scandinavian horror frenchise made. If you enjoy a good horror flick you should check this series out.

My Thoughts:
This is a pretty cute animated movie... though I have seen better. The film went in an obvious direction and I had a hard time caring about the characters. But in spite of all of that... It is definitely worth the time put in to watch it. The story takes place on Halloween so I can see myself watching this one for my October marathon each year.

My Thoughts:
It is not often I give a film a perfect 5 star rating... but I feel this one deserves it. It is just  truly amazing! Even more so considering it is based on a true story. I was drawn in from the very beginning... and it kept my complete attention till the very end. A real feel good movie. One I couldn't recommend high enough. An excellent story that is wonderfully done. It is one of those films where the moment I finish it I feel like I could watch that one again! If that is not a sign of a great movie I don't know what is.

My Thoughts:
What a great start to an amazing story. The storyline draws you in so much that you are glued to the set. So much so that you don't even realize you been sitting there for three hours watching a movie. And even after a full three hours you are left wanting more. This story really does take you on a great adventure. And that isn't even touching on the gorgeous visuals this film has to offer. An epic story... a must see film!

This is a great continuation of the story. I was once again glued to the screen through-out the film. And once again... the visuals was simply amazing. I absolutely loved the dragon in this one. It was very cool how he was done. I look forward of seeing more of him in the final movie... which I so can't wait to see!

And it is always to see Morgan Freeman. Mr. Freeman never does a bad movie. And Scarlett Johansson did a great part too. All in all, check it out! Worth the money.
