One of the worst and over-hyped films I've seen in months, if not years - and I'm a fan of Europan cinema. Nothing even close to Polanski's Ghost Writer. Don't even try to compare it to "Let the right one in" either. The One of the worst and over-hyped films I've seen in months, if not years - and I'm a fan of Europan cinema. Nothing even close to Polanski's Ghost Writer. Don't even try to compare it to "Let the right one in" either. The film is super convoluted, cluttered with unnecessary plot lines, and full of coincidences - that in the end amount to a silly whodonit... You can tell that the writers try to cram every single detail about the characters and their past into the exposition - and in the medium of cinema, this does not work... I felt completely deceived by the trailer - expecting something similar to the Ghost Writer - instead I got a danish soap-opera. The locations were cool to watch. Besides that it's a waste of time.

This movie is nothing compared to the American remake. I was thoroughly disappointed with the acting, writing, directing, and the quality of this film.

A movie so sick, so boring and so meaning less it will make your head hurt. The girl with the Dragon Tattoo is one of the worst piles of trash I have ever seen. A movie you don't want to see or remember for the rest of your life.

I haven't read the book so I can't tell if that was also such not thrilling. You've got a foreboding but there comes a ending that absolutely doesn't live up to expectations.

You've got a foreboding but there comes a ending that absolutely doesn't live up to expectations. Seems like Niels Arden Oplev was very unmotivated to make this movie. Noomi Rapace shows what a great actress she is, but the minor actors were hardly ignored in the film. You don't know how the both main actors feel, which may be a clever trick to get you to watch the two sequels. But TGWTDT is a disappointing criminal film with a lame story. Expand
