Girl With The Dragon Tatoo
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1568346/

4/5
Story-wise very faithful to the book and the screenplay is pretty good. Acting is very good particularly the two leads. Its rated 18a due to a very violent rape scene and some decent sex scenes. The Lisbeth character looks like any goth street kid with her clothes on but has a surprisingly fine ass and breasts naked. Filmed mainly in Sweden. I liked the movie as much as the book and would recommend. Warning - it is 2.5 hours long


PS. MAJOR CHICK FLICK WARNING - THE VOW

For both the GWDT and War Horse they showed trailers for a movie coming out in Feb (presumeably before Valentines Day) called the Vow. If you want to get laid and don't mind a little suffering to get there take a date to this one.

I saw the movie as well. Rooney Mara did a great job playing the Lisbeth character and there was a lot of suspense, as the OP said. Some parts of it though were totally predictable and others were unbelievable. There was a really disturbing scene about half way through, so beware. All in all, I thought that it was a good adaptation of the book and I liked it.

I never read the book but will now go see the movie.

I will check this out. I became a fan of Rooney Mara when I saw her in the initial scene of the Social Network where the facebook guy inadvertantly put her down for going to BU. Lol.

I have to finish watching the original Dragon Tattoo first, then go see the Hollywood remake.

I made it through the first two hours and ten minutes, then passed out... My mistake was I went to the 10:15 showing. Really solid movie from what I saw!

This movie is pointless and a shining example of the movie business lacking creativity. Iam sure it's good remake of the original version which I saw. They only remade it because the North American audience is lazy to watch subtitles.

I saw only the originals, pointless for me to see the remake.

So you are commenting on something you haven't seen then......ok

I saw both and this is by far the superior version IMHO. Not even close. I went just to see how different it would be and was pleasantly surprised , but I saw the original with sub-titles 2 years ago.

Excellent movie and I highly recommend it..............9/10

But there is one extremely hard scene to sit through. So be warned.
