Giant vs. Small Man (2025)

 

Title: Giant vs. Small Man

Genre: Action, Fantasy, Adventure

Description: In a world where ancient magic awakens colossal giants from a hidden realm beneath the earth, a lone, resourceful everyman named Eli, a 5’7” blacksmith with no combat training, must defend his village from a 60-foot-tall warlord giant, Gorrath. The giant, driven by a thirst for conquest, leads an army of towering beasts to enslave humanity. Armed with wit, a stolen enchanted artifact that amplifies his agility, and the support of a ragtag group of villagers, Eli wages a guerrilla war against the giants. The film blends heart-pounding action with David-and-Goliath themes, featuring epic battles in crumbling forests and mountain strongholds. The climactic showdown sees Eli scaling Gorrath’s body to strike a critical blow, proving that courage can topple even the mightiest foes. Packed with stunning CGI, practical effects, and a rousing score, this is a tale of defiance and survival.

Why No Exact Match?

The search results highlight several films involving giants or size disparities:

Jack the Giant Slayer (2013) features Jack, a young farmhand, battling a race of giants after opening a gateway between worlds (). This is close but focuses on multiple giants versus a group of humans, not a singular “small man” versus one giant.

War of the Colossal Beast (1958) involves a 60-foot human giant, Glenn Manning, causing havoc, but it’s more about his tragic rampage than a direct war with a small man ().

The 7th Voyage of Sinbad (1958) includes a magician shrinking a princess and battles with giant creatures like a cyclops, but it’s not a focused giant vs. human war ().

Gulliver’s Travels (1939, 2010) features a human perceived as a giant by tiny Lilliputians and later as small by giant Brobdingnagians, but it’s more about adventure than war ().

None of these perfectly match a singular “giant vs. small man” war narrative, so the hypothetical film fills the gap by focusing on a direct, personal conflict.
