The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is a 2009 Swedish drama thriller film based on the novel of the same name by Swedish author/journalist Stieg Larsson. It is the first book in the trilogy known as the "Millennium series", published in Sweden in 2005. The director is Niels Arden Oplev. By August 2009, it had been sold to 25 countries outside Scandinavia, most of them planning a release in 2010, and had been seen by more than 6 million people in the countries where it was already released.

It was beautifully written and well acted movie... but the rape scenes were a bit brutal to be honest. I went to see it with my best friend. He's a guy and he had to cover his eyes at one point (something I'll never let him forget) but I understood why. Other than that, I didn't like the outcome for poor Mister Kitty either. The story line and the plot were phenomenal though.

I saw the American release, not the original and it was really good. It's pretty long though so make sure you have enough time to sit through the entire movie. One of the better films I've seen in a while.

I keep seeing the movie on my movie channel but never get to watch the whole movie, let alone all the sequels. I know it must be good, but it never seems to be able to keep me concentrated.
