David Fincher's films are always gorgeous, strange, compelling, and disturbing. From the very beginning of this one, I was drawn in by the cinematography, the editing, and the superb acting. Rooney Mara is incredible as she tackles the amazing character of Lisbeth Salander. The multiple stories, how they intertwine, and the layers of past and present is fascinating and can be confusing, but that is what keeps you interested. The first adaptation of the story, by Niels Arden Oplev, will soon be reviewed and compared - stay tuned. This film is physical, sleek, and dynamic.
