Having watched the trailer I was curious how much of the film was left out, and unfortunately, not a lot!
All the effort went into the look of this film, at the expense of both plot and character development. When the monster is the one with the emotional back story, it's a bit concerning. Troll is fun a times, but there's little to get invested in, and it plays out, more like a video game.
Near the end you'll see the Independence Day reference, but more than that, the two are similarly forgettable, for all the effort put into the spectacle.
If the idea a Troll movie appeals, watch Troll Hunter 2010. A smaller film, with actual tension and peril.
