The Girl with the Dragoon Tattoo (2011)





The Hollywood version of a part of Swedish trilogy movies with the same title, also known by its best seliing novel origin, Män som hatar kvinnor, written by Steig Larsson. And in my humble opinion, the newest one is lame in a way.

The movies which starred by the latest James Bond, Daniel Craig, begin with the figurine, Lisbeth Salander, played by Rooney Mara, which drive a motorbike.

But when she walk away from the motorcycle, her mohawk styled hair is still in a good shape. What happen with the helmet mark? Or did she already have an at least 10 minutes to touch up her make up?

Craih whose play as Mikael Blomkvist, an investigation-journalist, trapped by a case caused by story he wrote.

When he think this is the time to go to an exile, suddenly he was invited by one of his subject for an investigation book, Henrik Vanger, to look after a murdered niece back in 1960s.

The case got a pre-investigated by Salander whose profession is a hacker. When Blomkvist case become more complex but start to promising, Blomkvist ask for her help to assist him investigating the case.

Overall, compared with the original one, the sex is more varied, the girl body have more shape, but is this a xx movie? The story is a bit same, but the very disturbing thing is: the language.

The director, David Fincher, produce the movie in English language, maybe to gathered more viewer globally, and insist the movie can not be compared with the previous and original one.

So why don't he make some more own interpretation from the novel?
