PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.
doug-fyfe book >>>>>> movie i remember not being able to sleep until i'd finished the book. but I was happy to watch the film in a couple of sittings. yes, it's hard to do a movie when the protagonist is in hospital for a good chunk of the movie, but the movie just isn't able to recreate the tension that is consistent throughout the book.
andrednz It took me almost a year to finish the book. They almost doubled the number of characters but, although the names are barely mentioned here, even the most interesting become flat characters. Figuerola is nothing. The thrilling situation involving Erika Berger being stalked in her new job becomes a mere footnote. The passionate debate between Teleborian and Annika Giannini is short and tedious in the movie. Not to mention the Tom and Jerry like chase made out of the fight between Salander and Niederman... Daniel Alfredson and two screenwriters managed to turn a necessary sequel into something really hard to watch. It took me 3 nights to watch this movie. Good pick for insomniacs.
KineticSeoul Like is a movie that doesn't revolve around detective work really, but revolves more around politics while delving more into Lisbeth's path. Sure it's a different movie that goes in a different path, but this is still a major downgrade compared to the first one. There is a lot going on here, so I understand how it can be difficult to merge the book into a 3 hour movie form. But it's still bland and I couldn't care less about the story. Nothing was really captivating or compelling and lacked the enriched experience the first one in this trilogy had. I give this movie a 4 because the part when the bad guys get taken down was actually quite gratifying. And because I at least appreciate the effort to turn this from book to movie form without going overboard. Besides that there just wasn't any moments that made me really care.4/10
axel-koch "The Girl Who Kicked The Hornet's Nest" is the final completion of the Millennium trilogy which main advantage was the original novel by Stieg Larsson. We, the observers of these three movies, know pretty much all about Lisbeth Salander of the first two films. We've got other disgusting characters in the 3d movie of the series and we've got some other brutal homicides. Daniel Alfredson, who directed the pretty good "The Girl Who Played With Fire" was also making this movie and he was kind of successful with it. But just kind of. Props to him for selecting the important scenes out of this really big novel, criticism for him for not making it thrilling. Of course, there are some parts it gets enthralling but the main part of this movie is actually calm. Lisbeth is curing before getting into the lawsuit and as you should've expected it's nothing spectacular. Some scenes are nice, some scenes are too slow after my fancy. See, the film is not bad - if the Millennium trilogy would've been a short TV series, this could be a felicitous last episode - but as a 140 minute film it gets sluggish. I'm not as disappointed as I was with "The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo" but "The Girl Who Kicked The Hornet's Nest" isn't a good film either. However, I was entertained relatively all the time and if you've reasonably enjoyed the first two pictures I'd also recommend you to watch this one. In fine, it just lacks a real blast. Even the final scene is non-satisfying; I intensively hoped for another last scene after the credits (which didn't come). That's it, the final movie of the Millennium trilogy is nothing more than an 'okay'.
