This was the most captivating and stunning movie I've seen this year. The cinematography, acting, and the amazing story won me over. I loved the main character's style too! I was definitely inspired to change up my style a little bit. I hope this movie wins for Best Picture of the year.

This movie will grab you by the knees and keep you held down! So very different from the same, blah plot movies being mass-produced. The storyline is detailed and captivating. Very realistic and off the mainstream path. Life is not always pretty, people! Would definitely recommend for storyline, acting, and detail. LOVE THIS MOVIE!!!!

Must Watch! I love The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo!! The beginning is a bit graphic, but it definitely gets the point across and she gets her revenge!

I really enjoyed watching this movie I'll watch it over and over again so I bought it in added to my movie collection

This movie was so good yet so sad, it had a little bit of everything, action, comedy, drama. Go give a watch you will not be disappointed. Very good movie.

Yes, I am definitely on the bandwagon with this film/book series. The characters are great. I think I might be in agreement with most people that the movie is better than the book, but the book is still really good.

I have read all three books - i absolutely LOVED this movie and can not wait for the next one

Rooney Mara is incredible! I think the remake is much better than the original Swedish version. It helps if you've read the books and seen the Swedish movies. I read on Wikipedia, they are going to make "The Girl Who Played With Fire" and "The Girl Who Kicked The Hornet's Nest." Even though they were true to the book, I did not like the ending either. Poor Lisbeth...I'd like to see her and Blomkvist continue their relationship....GOOD MOVIE!

I rarely write movie reviews but this film prompted me to want to write one. First, if you haven't watched this movie, be warned that there will be some really disturbing rated-R scenes (example: a "rape" scene). A friend that suggested we go watch this movie ended up sitting out for the rest of the movie because she couldn't handle the rape scene and was afraid there would be more similar scenes like it. The rape scene was a turn-off and just plain gross. I was a little lost to what was happening at the beginning of the movie, but once it started becoming graphic I started paying more attention. The plot is actually quite unique and well-written if you overlook the other immoral elements. I don't think I would re-watch this since the first time was already still vivid in my mind and I'm not sure I want to re-live it. It is also definitely not a date movie. I would feel uncomfortable sitting in a movie like that with a date since the movie has a lot of controversial elements in it. Only go see this with close friends or your spouse. Be forewarned.

I never read the book, so I didn't know what I was getting into with this movie. I enjoy a good mystery and this plot was unpredictable. Which I loved! It's hard to find a good film that keeps you on your toes and doesn't follow the same old generic plot scheme.

Original is fantastic but the new one is too boring. I normally do not watch movies from other languages but this kept my interest and I could relate with the main character. I would recommend not letting your children watch this however due to the rape and violent scenes.

I have not read the books but for myself having a short attention span this movie really kept me locked on.

I started to read the book a couple of times and just couldn't get into it. Of course I didn't want to see the movie but was outvoted one day and went along with what everyone else wanted to see. I was surprised, this is a great movie! The story was very interesting and kept my attention the entire time. For anyone that wants to see it, be advised that there were a few very unexpected and disturbing scenes in it, so it s definitely not for the squeamish!

My hubby and I watched this together and overall we really enjoyed it and thought the mystery of the story was outstanding. Some of the content was unexpected but when she got her payback I was feeling much better about it all. There was a lot of going back and forth between the two main characters and their stories until it comes together but we liked it. I would def say this movie is for very mature audiences that can handle violence, especially against women.

I read the book first before seeing the movie. I alway try to do this. I loved the book, but felt the movie left so much out. The actors were wonderful.
