I've heard some buzz about this flick and gave it a go on Netflix streaming. It's REALLY fkn good! Most suspense /murder mysteries don't hold my attention, but this one did. Throw in some sadism + computer hacking and you've got a nicely twisted film.
Don't read all the descriptions of the movie, you'll ruin all the surprises. Also, I thought the subtitles would bug me like they usually do, but they didn't because the movie isn't too dialog heavy. I actually got used to reading them and it worked out.
Its graphic violence and sprawling length will prove too much for some viewers to take, but Noomi Rapace's gripping performance makes The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo an unforgettable viewing experience.
BTW: The Girl who Played With Fire (the book's/movie's sequel) is out now.
Although fake, check out the tat on the girl (just like the movie title). You'll notice the dragon on her back, but look for the dragon tail "coming out" of the side of her right thigh. Looks fkn badass when you put it all together!

I have heard a lot about this movie and book series since last year when Stieg Larsson died.
I heard that they are remaking it in Hollywood.

You were my friend and the brother I never had. I love you man and I hope now all the pain has gone away. May god rest your soul.

Watched this last night. Was damn good. I'm not sure what you guys mean though when you say there isn't much dialogue...seemed like a normal amount to me. A mute point though. The girl definitely needs a boob job...and a razor for those nasty pits. All that aside it was a very well made movie that kept me intrigued throughout.

Hmmm...maybe I got even more used to reading the subtitles than I thought. I should try to go back and watch Pan's Labyrinth. That movie was subtitled and I couldn't watch it after 10 minutes of "reading" and not "watching".
