This is a thriller based on the first book of the Swedish writer Stieg Larson's trilogy Millennium «Men who hates women» (It's in Swedish both the movies and the books, just so you know). The movie is about a journalist, the last wish of an old (not dying) man and a suspicious disappearance. The journalist partners up with someone (I'm trying not to say to much about the film). And they work the case together, and some other things as well.
The rape-scene that is so much spoken of was very good, and it looked seriously realistic, but I've heard it was gross as hell, I didn't find it gross at all, sure it is rape and all, but still it's just a movie and you're not actually watching someone get raped. That was a good scene.
The fact that they used both old-school and hi-tech methods to solve it impressed me very much. Putting those two opposites together was genius! I liked that a lot.
And I liked the characters very much. They were almost opposites too. And they filled each other out. And Lisbeth was my favorite character I have to say. She was so serious, yet fun. So rough, yet so smooth. So black, yet so white.
The characters were used to the fullest! And that is a huge plus! We saw them from so many different angles. It was simply brilliant, superb. And the job done by the actors were no less.
It was a serious minus that they called it a thriller duh. I have nothing more to say about that.
I really liked this film and I rate it 7.5 out of 10 stars. Nothing more to say about that either.
