SWEDISH MOVIES ROCKS!!!
Are sorry for the outburst, but after seeing Men Who Hates Women, this is so very clear to me!
Any way the movie is based on the novel of same name by Stieg Larsson. I have not read the book, but I should have I guess =)
All the acting in the movie is very very good, and especially the two main characters does a very good job. I'm so happy it's a trilogy, since I really want more NOW.
It's Niels Arden Oplev who has directed it, and I've seen Drømmen and To Verdener by him aswell, and I must say this is also a great job. The visuals and the pace of the movie makes a great movie in the genre. Dark, gritty, unforgiving and surprising.
Both main characters has a past marked by events which has shaped them into sympathetic, stop-for-nothing investigators who'm you really wanna see succeed.
I look very much forward to see the two last movies! =)
