The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo

Editorial
Forty years ago, Harriet Vanger disappeared from a family gathering on the island owned and inhabited by the powerful Vanger clan. Her body was never found, yet her uncle is convinced it was murder and that the killer is a member of his own tightly knit but dysfunctional family. He employs disgraced financial journalist Mikael Blomkvist and the tattooed, ruthless computer hacker Lisbeth Salander to investigate.
When the pair link Harriet’s disappearance to a number of grotesque murders from almost forty years ago, they begin to unravel a dark and appalling family history. But the Vanger's are a secretive clan, and Blomkvist and Salander are about to find out just how far they are prepared to go to protect themselves.
Millennium is based on the trilogy of books by Stieg Larsson and has sold over 8 million copies worldwide. Tragically, Larsson did not live to see the phenomenon his work has become as he died suddenly in 2004 soon after delivering the manuscripts to his Swedish publisher.

The conspiracy thriller to this movie will be obvious to the sharp-witted. There are scenes of torture porn and rapes that would give Eli Roth's HOSTEL movies a run for their money. Lisabeth Salander's computer hacker with a photographic memory is such a morally complex and damaged character that she steals the film from the rest of the cast. Even though Lisabeth is abused to such a degree of sadism she is probaly the strongest character in the movie. The final scene in this movie has become the standard in how these films come to it's conclusion. The film is spectacularly lensed in it's Swedish winter climate.

Felt like a telemovie on steroids. But hey, I don't mind the odd telemovie & whilst I could do with some steroids, that Girl With The Dragon Tattoo packed all the testosterone any film needs. She was a great (anti)heroine.
