Sabah Hensley This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

StarshipTrouper People rave about the three Swedish made films in this trilogy. Up to now Hollywood has only made The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo,for once the American version is superior. In the original Noomi Rapace is excellent,in the 2011 Rooney Mara as Lisbeth is much closer to the book,never once does her face crack into a smile. The Hollywood version cut less out the book.Also Daniel Craig is superior to Michael Nyqvist as Blomkvist It has just bee announced that next Lizbeth film will jump straight to "The girl in the spiders web" the fourth book in the series written by David Lagercrantz. This seems crackers

avidmoviewatcher1221 THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO was dark and gritty, intricate and intriguing. It was thought-provoking, and it was filled with so much suspense. Lisbeth Salander is a highlight - Noomi Rapace brings her to life, and her performance is . . . I don't know how to convey it through words that well, but she is so bad-ass. Some of the explicit content was a little too much for me at times. They made me gasp. Made me shiver. Made me want to look away. Then made me wish I could un-see it. Overall, I enjoyed THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO.

Adam Centurione Considering I originally thought this was a Tarantino film, I was pleasantly surprised. It is not a Tarantino film, and is in fact, a good drama/ thriller, a genre in which I have recently gained interest in.Lisbeth Salander is a great character. the movie portrays her involvement in Mikhail (I don't know his last name) investigation on the disappearance of a teenage girl.Through a few twists, rude and satisfying scenes, the movie captures the watchers attention. Within the drama there are insights into contemporary social and political issues, as well as historical ones.

buiger Contrary to most, I have to say that I expected much more from this movie. Having read the book(s), which I believe all to be masterpieces of their genre (especially this one, the first one of the series) I was really looking forward to seeing this film. Alas, I was somewhat disappointed... Not that this was a bad, poorly made film, because it isn't. It is however, nowhere near in bringing to the viewer the plot, the atmosphere and the emotions of the book (which is often the case with the filming of great books). Having said that, I must also say that the filmmakers eventually 'found their way' when making the second and third installments of the series, which where much, much better than this first movie in the trilogy.Now I am looking forward to seeing the Hollywood version of this book, hoping for the best...
