User Review
Exciting recapitulation of the Millennium trilogy
Rating: 8/10
Perspective: I am 25, Danish (thus understanding Swedish) and have not
read the books.
The final movie covering Stieg Larssons Millennium trilogy ties all the
pieces together and explains the deeper reasons for Lisbeth Salanders
unreasonable treatment by society.
Compared to its predecessors, I found the first movie highly gripping
for its unique roughness and interesting characters, while the sequel
didn't really catch me due to a plain storyline and little creativity.
This movie however is back on track, keeping a good pace of events and
complexity.
If you have already followed Salander and Blomkvist during the previous
books/movies, you will surely enjoy watching how the conspiracy is
being unraveled through intense investigations and court trials. You
will experience how the opposition crumble beneath Salander and
Blomkvists combined efforts at exposing and confronting the deeper
reasons for Salanders struggles, and how they piece the puzzle together
to clear her name and taking down the shady factions of society.
The movie has a nice level of well thought out detail, but also a
several logical breaches. You leave the cinema with a feeling of
wanting to know much more about how the initial conspiracy evolved and
how parts of the investigation (not involving the key characters) is
carried out. This is likely due to the dept of Stieg Larssons books,
being impossible to portrait in just 150 swift minutes. This may
eventually be a teaser lurking me into reading the books.
