From the worldwide bestseller by Stieg Larsson comes this gripping new thriller which will have you guessing until the end.
As someone who has read the books and wholly enjoyed them, I wanted to see how the adaptations faired. I was surprised that it is hugely faithful to the novel, bar a character or two being pushed to the background and the addition of scenes from the subsequent novels, in order to set up a greater mystery and place characters straight away. Noomi Rapace is the standout obviously, she carries the film effectively playing the stilted heroine to a degree where you are puzzled by her and understand her. Michael Nyqvist is also brilliant as the wronged journalist turned detective. There is a glossy feel to the film, whilst I felt it should have been alot gritty and dirtier, but overall it is a brilliant start to a great trilogy.
