A subtitled, Norwegian film. It probably isn't giving too much away to say that it's about a man who hunts trolls for a living. A group of amateur film-makers are investigating reports of bear-poaching in Norway, and follow the man they believe to be the poacher. Only to discover he's after much bigger game. Really, really, bigger. Even though the subject matter is Trolls, it's played straight and not for laughs (although there are a handful of amusing moments). It's all done in a found-footage manner, from the viewpoint of the cameraman, which may annoy some people, in a Blair Witch kind of way. Thoroughly enjoyable (and so good I wouldn't be surprised if Hollywood do an English-language remake in a year or two, for those who find reading subtitles too much bother). 4.5/5

Loved this one. It was weird, not entirely serious, and just plain wonderfully done. I can see some parts not making sense if you live outside Scandinavia but it is definitely worth watching.

Absolutely loved this movie. A great example of mockumentary/"found footage" with some great lines and performances. Brilliantly off the wall and very funny at times. 5/5

Entertaining, rough around the edges. I thought it was just too slapdash to warrant a 4. I give it a 3.
