A disgraced, but noble journalist. A serial killer with ties to high society. A young, beautiful computer hacker with a punk attitude and theories about the case. A lost little girl. A dark secret stretching back to WWII. It’s easy to see why Stieg Larsson’s pulpMillennium trilogy (The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, The Girl Who Played With Fire , and The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet’s Nest ) has become a runaway beach book phenomenon, selling more copies in Europe than almost any other books in...
Watching it now, taking a break about halfway through to make dinner. It's an intense movie.
Possibly the first film I've encountered in which I found the screen time of a flabby, naked man more gratifying than that of an attractive, naked young woman.
Oh joy, a woman suffering from "or something similar" solving a crime between Billy's Pan Pizzas. If I want that, I can spend time with my wife. They even have the same name. I have the tattoo. I'll have to see it, I liked the book. Can you say Lack of Social integration and Emotional Reciprocity? Good.

Everyone should go and read all three of the books instead of going to the movie first!!! Really!
I watched the third film last night. Even with really terrible subs, it was one of the three best movies I've seen this year. The other two were the first and second film.
I'd never heard of this until today. Saw the book in a hospital gift shop but didn't buy it. I think this interview has convinced me that was a mistake.

The Hollywood version was surprisingly good.
Just watched it recently and I LOVE Daniel Craig, but I had such low expectations because the originals were just SO good. Wow though, just wow, everyone was fantastic and some parts of it were actually more tense and disturbing. Didn't hurt that Reznor and Ross put the music together either.
