I could see a possible deception in the ending where the sun doesn’t come up and they do return the troll king back to dovre caves. The sigrid character explains that they killed all of the trolls and trapped the last one in dovre. The middle of the movie when they’re discussing the lies that stories had shown trolls in sunlight and etc to make them less believable makes me think that they might have said that to set up being mislead in the end as well. The end was so dissonant and too happy for what had happen. And when they show the cave again after the credits it seems likely that they could have lead the troll back to the cave. As it seems likely that if there was two troll that they would have both been awaken from the blast. I’d have to re-watch the movie to see if this theory holds but it’s an interesting idea.
Hi, Shannon! I could definitely see a movie making a call like that. I’m just not sure this one would go that far. It’s a pretty elaborate…troll…on the viewer. I just think the tonal clash at the end is just an issue with the writing.
I’m also confused why the troll didn’t become a mountain at the end. That seemed like the logical full-circle conclusion. I guess they didn’t want to put a mountain in the middle of Oslo lol.
