The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo

March 30th 2010 23:02
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo though expertly executed, is graphic and disturbing; definitely not for those with a delicate disposition. This Swedish film (with English sub titles) is the first in a trilogy of films based on The Millenium series of books by Swedish author Steig Larsson. It is rated MA15 and contains graphic scenes of a sexual and violent nature including rape, physical violence and Nazi themes.

Dont be put off by the sub titles; its worth the effort.

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo


Lisbeth Salander (Noomi Rapace) has a disturbing past, one which we catch snapshots of during the movie. A former psychiatric patient, she now works as a researcher (corporate spy) and computer hacker under the guardianship of a perverted and dangerous government official, Bjuramn. After dealing with Bjurman in her own unique style, Lisbeth begins to follow the progress of journalist Mikael Blomkvist (Michael Nyqvist) as he attempts to solve the 40 year old missing persons case of Heather Vanger, of the powerful but reclusive Vanger family.

Lisbeth becomes embroiled in the case after she hacks into Mikael's computer and manages to solve a clue that has had Mikael stumped. As Mikael and Lisbeth work together to uncover the details of the case, they learn dark and disturbing facts about the Vanger family; worse than they could have imagined.


The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is utterly compelling. Throughout the two and a half hours it just doesnt let up. From a high profile and court case, to Lisbeths physical and sexual assault, to sick serial killings, to the unravelling of the mystery that puts Mikaels life in imminent danger, this movie is riveting and suspenseful. It will move you from a position on the edge of your seat to the fetal position at the back of your chair as you are unable to look at the screen for the horrors that are portrayed. You will learn a lot about your own character as you get pulled into Lisbeths world. This is definitely no Hollywood movie so while the ending does give a sense of deep satisfaction dont expect a fairy tale.
