"Luulin pitkään, että dekkaristi Stieg Larsson on vain pitkästyttävää lässytystä, mutta ilmeisesti olin vain ylimielinen omaksi vahingokseni. Alkaa kuin Bond-elokuvat konsanaan, mutta ylittää niistä melkeen minkä tahansa jo 5 minuutin sisällä. En siis ole koskaan ollut Bond-fani, kaikkea muuta, tuo tylsistyttävä naistenkaataja on aina lähinnä vain etonut ja kaikki ne siistit vempeleet ovat hiton pitkästyttäviä, eli onneksi tämä raina ryhtyy jo heti polkemaan toiseen suunta"

"First viewing - Aug. 1st Lisbeth Salander double feature I was mildly curious to check this one out during its theatrical run, but the reviews weren't exactly glowing so I waited. And while it held my attention well enough for the most part, I probably could've gone on without watching it. Claire Foy isn't bad in the lead role, but she doesn't have the same presence as Rapace or Mara. The plot side of things is full of issues though. For starters it rewrites Salander's past to birth a new villa"

An average movie

“To be honest, I wasn’t expecting much from this flick but since I have always been a huge fan of Lisbeth Salander, I still wanted to check it out. Well, even though this character still has some huge potential, I’m afraid the damned thing was rather misguided. Indeed, even though for many years, many were hoping that David Fincher, Rooney Mara and Daniel Craig would come back for a sequel after ‘The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo’, well, it never happened. Instead, they went for the 4th book which had not been adapted yet which wasn’t necessarily a bad idea, except that this story was not really good. I mean, sure, it was entertaining enough but not much more than that. Above all, like ‘The Girl Who Played With Fire’ and ‘The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets' Nest’, I think it re” read more

“Rooney Mara was nominated for Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. Despite that I heard she wasn’t even asked to come back. Also no Daniel Craig. So that made me not want to check this out. They also skipped 2 or 3 books to adapt this one.

Claire Foy surprisingly isn’t bad either though as Lithbeth. Sverrir Gudnason doesn’t stand out as much as Craig as Mikael though. The movie is decent but the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is better.” read more

BradWesley123's Movie Journal- February 2019 (36 movies items)

" DVD- 1hr. 55min. First Viewing Abandoning the exploitative violence and emotion of the Swedish series, and the cold, lurid pulp of Fincher's film, The Girl in the Spider's Web brings Lisbeth Salander back for a rather bland outing. Claire Foy does fine in the lead, though not as immediately incendiary as her predecessors, but she's not given a whole lot to work with; the script is a basic boilerplate Euro-tinged thriller, with conspiracies and violence abounding. Director Fede Álvarez does som"

"If you ever watched Kiyoshi Kurosawa's Creepy and found yourself thinking it would be improved if it was more like that E3 press conference where Ubisoft demoed Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Wildlands by having an excessively voice-acted voice chatting multiplayer session, this movie has about 8 minutes that will satisfy your needs."

"Anyone familiar with the franchise will know the tone and premise of these movies. This movie does feel like a departure from the tone and feel of the originals and that may or may not be a good thing, depending on how invested you are in the written material. There is far less of the feminism which permeates the first 3 movies, this may be a reflection of current mood and also the fact that its just not sensible to have a main character who hates and targets men, when the audience is predominat"
