6/10
Decidedly weird, creepy, complex and perverted

Warning: Spoilers
A litany of pigs and rapists, with a variety of violence. My recommendation is to read the synopsis, since the narrative may otherwise be difficult to follow. I found it a puzzling watch, and strongly resist recommending it. A lot of people are killed in various ways. I feel that the plot would have been greatly improved if the octogenarian Henrik Vanger (head of a business family clan of otherwise Nazis), who had oddly hired the unappealing journalist Blomkvist to find his missing or murdered niece Harriet, had died of a terminal heart attack, brought on by shock, when the story climaxed with her discovery and presentation to him. It would have rounded things off nicely. The proper title of this film is "The Men who hate Women", and I really don't know why the girl with a dragon on her back gets to star.
