	Media	Author	Review
		John DeFore The Hollywood Reporter	"A one-of-a-kind story of friendship and isolation (...) 'The Giant' is among other things surely the strangest underdog sports movie of the year"
		Nick Schager Variety	"Just as its protagonist is hampered by tremendous physical limitations, so is Johannes Nyholm’s feature debut undercut by an uneasy blend of docu-drama realism and 'Lord of the Rings'-style fantasy"
