I would have liked to see more dragons, but really good movie
Graphic movie
One of the years best films. A must see. More of a somber and dark film, though, just to warn.
Overall the movie is genuinely a master piece in transformation from book to movie. It had a very big reputation to uphold with due to the Swedish version which came out in 2009, although it was directed and casted very well making the movie one of the best movie adaptations from book (excluding major series like harry Potter and Lord of the Rings). There are several highly graphic scenes in which may disturb you at first if you have no clue what the story line is at all, so beware. Other than that though The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo is precisely an awesome movie.
very well done
As good as the book.
Read the book - liked it. Saw the movie - loved it.
very well done movie, pulls you right in...good casting, well acted..there are some disturbingly graphic scenes not for children or early teens. would go see it again...
I have seen the Swedish version and this one is just as good. It is a great thriller that draws you in from the start. Excellent story for those who enjoy a good murder mystery. The movie is very graphic so prepare yourself.
I was quite impressed with this Americanized version of the series of books and films that I had seen before-- Not for all to see because of extreme violence--and sex scenes etc
