Can't wait to have this film in my collection! Saw it at the cinema after waiting for what felt like an age after reading the book - I was not disappointed at all. Excellent film and exceptionally true to the story. The subtitles weren't a problem although thought they would be perhaps before seeing the film. And yes, an American film will be made of the story, but all aficionados doubt it will be anything like as good as this version. A very dark, powerful story with incredible characters and actors portraying them.
for me this was a great film. i havent read any of the books so i didnt really know what it was about, the story line can be a bit boring at times but when u get into it it is very entertaining the acting is good, i didnt like it in english ( because u could tell it was dubbed) but with the subtitles it was a brilliant film. for me the girl who played with fire is better, and im looking forward to watching the girl who kicked the hornets nest which is in cinimas 29th of november.. i totally recomend this if your not just watching it for action because it wont deliver in thatr gender of film
I loved the book (and its successors in the trilogy), and the story of Lisbeth Salander is brilliantly portrayed in this cinematic adaptation. The cast perfectly represent Larsson's literary characterisations and although elements of the book are slightly changed to accommodate the 2 and a half hour film version, the plot is excellently showcased revealing the complexities behind Salander's friendship with Blomkvist, her unfailing independence and lack of trust in authority, as well as the underpinning tale of cruelty and family expose that runs throughout the piece and joins it all together. Don't bother with the forthcoming Hollywood attempt - this is the one to see.
If you loved the books, you will not be disappointed with the film. I can't think of anyone that could have played Lisbeth better than Noomi. Don't wait for the Hollywood remake as it can't possibly outdo the Swedish one. It stuck to the story much closer than I was expecting, and was just as edge of the seat as the book was. Marvellous!
