"001 Trolling" tells the story of a young internet troll who gets initiated into a respective gang. While he is trying to set up a rap career, he has to fight with lack of loyalty, greed and the question what kind of a person he wants to be.
The movie is very confusing and not always in a positive way. There's rather a general concept than a real story-line, which makes it sometimes hard to decide what the producers want to tell with certain scenes. You can easily see that there is some thought behind the film and parts can be seen as a comment on modern society, however the switch between serious elements and satire didn't work for me this time. There were some surprising twists that I enjoyed, however they can't make up for all of the weirdness and chaos that sets the tone for the plot.
All in all I see some really strong approaches here but unfortunately the producers didn't manage to make a coherent movie out of them. This way it remains kind of a pandora's box where something good will pop up between a large amount of bullshit.
