a more glamorous Girl with a Dragon Tattoo

I loved the book and the original Swedish film, which captured the complexity of this amazing story. So many convoluted themes about politics, sex, power, love, addiction and all those dark side of life shadows. I really enjoyed the faithful representation and no frills acting of the Swedish movie.I was unsure as to whether Hollywood would trivialise or typecast this movie. But I was pleasantly surprised - Daniel Craig is cool and calm as Mikael Blomkvist and Rooney Mara portrays Lisbeth Salander with commitment. The whole cast is a litle more glamorous in their dress and the sets are lavish and contrasted by the amazing Swedish scenary. The photography and music create the suspense and the mood which means that the whole film is an emotionally harrowing journey... again..
