[HanCinema's Film Review] "Troll Factory"
By William Schwartz | Published on
The opening subtitles of "Troll Factory" insist that the plot of this movie is based on real events, though it stresses that no real people are depicted. This is something of an understatement. Incidentally, "Troll Factory" is based on a novel. While that novel was indeed based on real events, namely the use of malicious online comments to swing the 2012 Presidential Election, the film version is about malicious online comments being used to cover up corporate espionage.
