Thehibikiew Not even bad in a good way
Taraparain Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
Hadrina The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Derry Herrera Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.
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.
perkypops To watch this cinematic recount of Stieg Larsson's Millennium trilogy has been as great a privilege as reading the books. The seven hours or so of cinema are compelling and, as faithfully as they may, follow the stories with just the right atmosphere, characters, pace, and realism. Every flaw of every character is reproduced in the acting, and recalls your memory of what Larsson wrote.The central characters, Lisbeth Salander (Rapace) and Mikael Blomkvist (Nyqvist) are superbly cast and are supported by a very strong cast who pull out all the stops whichever side they are on. It is a beautifully photographed trilogy, with atmosphere in video and soundtrack fitting a script that keeps you in touch with what is going on in what is quite a complex storyline. And for a film of a trifle short of two and half hours it literally flies by, because, like all good stories, it keeps you hooked.Sweden makes some wonderful cinema and these films are up there with the best. Please watch all three movies just to observe how true craftspeople ply their trade.Highly recommended.
coolbarbie2004 The actors did an amazing job. The movie was good but it lacked some substance. Michael's never ending persistence. His ending up with Ferguelo. The press hounding Lisbeth and publishing nasty articles about S&m,etc. Also I was expecting a better trial for Lisbeth. Its so riveting in the book. I wanted to see something similar. Lisbeth's quirk, Giannani's effective arguments about Lisbeth's alcohol, sex life and tattoos. Lisbeth's old guardian. Teleborian's disgusting egotistical evaluation. Lisbeth's assertiveness to get a conviction the same day and not wanting to swayback in the country for evaluations after the trial. The judge asserting the logic of being legally competent. But in the movie it was very laid back and slow. Disappointing.
Luigi Di Pilla The trilogy ends with this last part that I found boring, disappointing and especially too long. Why? The story looses itself in too many unnecessary details that could have been left away. Then the pace was incredibly low. I missed during the whole running time suspense and new elements of this intriguing crime thriller. This was for me nothing new and it didn't take me on a high trip. But I must again congratulate Noomi Rapace for her outstanding performance. I hope that the next announced trilogy will be at least on the same level as the first two parts. Read therefore my reviews on IMDb. My final score is for these reasons 5/10.
