Sequel to The Snow Queen is a lacklustre CG effort, with script as perfunctory and animation as lacking in character as the worst video game. Orm the troll returns to Troll City following his vanquishing of The Snow Queen in the first film, where he pretends to be a valiant hero to marry the kingdom’s troll princess before getting tricked by his own reflection. The uninspired UK dub scarcely helps. Produced by the Night Watch franchise’s director Timur Bekmambetov, but of little note otherwise.
