Review title: The book is much better
Product review: As usual, this movie does not stand up to the book upon which it is based. I fully realize that movies "must" be limited to a certain time frame (due to audience attention rates being so low), so the makers are obliged to pick and choose material from the book. However, this movie simply lacks all of the subtly and well-written prose that the book contains. I found the book to be much more graphic than the movie, so I am not sure what is so over-the-top there. I do not normally watch slasher flicks or anything with such graphic violence (it is rare that I am reading Larsson's book anyhow...I did not realize the amount of graphic violence/rape in it prior to starting; I was interested in what all of the fuss was about over it in popular culture). My issue with the movie is that it was just a poor adaptation and it did not match the book to my liking. I don't know if I'll see the next movie or read the next book, but this is what I had to say.
