I thought that this was an amazing movie!! Dragon tattoo with Mara Rooney will perhaps always be my favorite , as it was my first, but I really cannot understand the critics’ slaughter of this film. It moved well, the plot was good , and it did justice to the twisted heart and mind of Lisbeth. We were never bored, and although we were skeptical going in, we were really glad we took the time to watch it. Immediately after seeing the first movie, we hoped for the next movie to immediately arrive. After waiting for sometime, as it became apparent that cast would not come back together (although I can’t for the life if me see how so many people could be foolish enough not to make that happen), we moved on. I feel like just as the original books came to a halt, and then moved on, so will the movies. Lisbeth is simply too amazing a character to let go of... I may never spike my hair, or get a dragon tattoo, but God knows I want to. Until then, I hope to continue to follow her!
