Despite all the raves I wasn't that impressed with the original Dragon Tattoo movies. I thoroughly enjoyed the American version. Thought the girl was much more dysfunctional than in the original where she's just a pissed off punk girl.

Just about as weak as the first one.
The entire movie consists of homegirl sitting in hospital >> going to jail >> getting acquitted at trial. No real development of anything, no twists, no nothing.
And what's the defense's secret weapon, the climatic revelation that the entire movie builds up to?
DRUMROLL.....YES you guessed it! It's the very same anal rape porn scene the first movie revolved around!
My only question is how are they going to work the anal rape porn scene into the THIRD movie?! I can't wait to find out.
I hate to break it to you but that is the third one. The second in the trilogy is The Girl Who Played With Fire which basically sets up the Hornets Nest with some obligatory sex trade, violence against women etc thrown in for good measure.
damn. Here I was thinking that the story had not progressed much since the first movie, and apparently there was even a whole nother movie in there! yikes; bad trilogy.
