    [Highly rated reviewer]

    Not a classic,but very good indeed.

    They said David Fincher could not better the Swedish version. IMHO he has done so. And he has remained true to the book trilogy.

    Daniel Craig plays his part well, big-name co-stars all do well; but Rooney Mara steals the show with an unforgettable performance.

    Retaining all its original Swedish flavour and scenery, this film is way above the average for movies at this time.

  • One of the best films i've ever rented

    Rated - 5.0 stars

    Wasn't too bothered about seeing this but 15 mins in I was absolutely hooked, it is a super tense murder mystery. Best film I've seen in some time, the actors were fantastic all round and I really cared about the characters. Can't wait for the sequel.

    I felt at a disadvantage having not read the books. I had no idea what to expect but what I found was a dark, thrilling moving from the middle that took a while to get going or for the characters to knit together.

  • The dragon tattoo remake

    Rated - 3.5 stars  
    By MelissaMarabamma (227 reviews) from South Coast UK , 25 May 2013
    I love the Swedish trilogy so it was curiosity that made me rent the Hollywood remake of those outstanding films. I watched the Swedish version with the English voice-over so there was no diminishing their impact for me. I love Daniel Craig and he did a good job. The female role was much more credible by the Swedish Elisabeth so much sexier.

    A really clever and exciting story with built-in expectation of what may come keeping you in your seat. Excellent performances by the two main actors in this web of intrigue.

    I actually prefer the original Swedish version & prefer the book even more but Daniel Craig & co put in great performances in this remake making it a really good film. Shame there will be no follow ups
