The story, set in Sweden, and follows Michael (Michael Nyqvist), a journalist faces jail after the establishment of Lisbeth (Noomi Rapace), a hacker under surveillance with a mysterious and troubled past. Through these paths in order to solve the disappearance of 15-year-old cold case. Through many ups and downs they face, and cover-ups, and invites the document. Film structure and procedures reminds me of David Fincher's Zodiac (2007), and that it is progressing and more accurately focused on the investigators, rather than evil. So much so, that it is impossible for anyone unfamiliar with the novel to determine who is the evil before it is disclosed. And the evolution / surprise is effective because of the absence of strongly warn instead of misdirection and deception.
Originally (and rightly) They are entitled men hatar Som [men who hate women], and there are some heinous acts against women portrayed, especially Lisbeth. Including two (very) scenes of rape and of serious concern. Although it is not totally unwarranted, they have a lasting impact, disgusting scenes. Thanks to the director, and actors, not to pull any punches and photography business sadism strong and realistic.
Image of Swedish actress Noomi Rapace Lisbeth is astonishing and stands leakage in the movie full of strong performances. Played with the feature, Lisbeth swings in many cases on the border between sanity and despair. While the past is only hinted at the problem, doubt has some law and men and a clear and understandable. The most striking feature of Lisbeth is her eyes, full of intense hostility and depression. Michael on the other hand is the opposite of Lisbeth full of compassion and righteousness.
The girl with the dragon tattoo, while allowing the right one, is another film out of Sweden to achieving fame worldwide in recent years. Given its success, and I expect a sudden increase in the Swedish cinema for follow-up releases. If the quality of the films remains consistent, and Sweden appear as a center for foreign film.
