Are yous not Lisbeth Salander, the righter of wrongs? The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo?

The original book trilogy (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, The Daughter Who Played with Burn and The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets' Nest) were written past Stieg Larsson. At that place were movie versions of each released in 2009 starring Noomi Rapace. In 2010 in that location was the Millennium Television set mini-series, which was a compilation of the iii Swedish films with extended scenes/more stuff added dorsum in. The three movies were re-released on DVD with the actress stuff added back in and these became the 'Extended Versions' of the films. In 2011 came the United states of america remake of the outset picture. Since and then, another writer (David Lagercrantz) started writing a new series of books continuing the story on from the third volume (as the original writer, Stieg Larsson, had passed away). This new movie starring Claire Foy is the first moving picture accommodation of the new serial of books. The just 'remake' then far has been the 2011 version of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.

Sadly, not enough people were first introduced to the grapheme of Lisbeth Salander through Noomi Rapace's unparalleled functioning, setting the standard by which all other portrayals should be compared. She did all the hard work/heavy lifting, bringing this character to life onscreen for the starting time time. Quite unfairly, she never scored an Oscar nomination (which I recall she *should* accept), nor did these original films receive all the praise that the US remake got. Whether it was the fact that the original film trilogy had subtitles, which people simply couldn't be bothered reading, I don't know, but it'due south a shame that the large flashy Usa remake got all the glory the original films/extra to play Salander should have. Those who told fans of the original Swedish films to 'Give the Us remake a gamble!' and dismissed the recasting of the Lisbeth part now know what it feels like. All the people whose first introduction to the characters of Lisbeth, Mikael, etc was the Fincher version clearly couldn't take their own communication, every bit a large pct of them seem to be damning this new moving-picture show, despite the fact that at least it's based on a book that *hasn't* been filmed previously.

I've seen complaints nigh Claire Foy as Lisbeth not looking vastly unlike to how she unremarkably looks, and this is a result of Fincher going overboard with Lisbeth's look in his version, where she was downright alienesque in appearance. No, information technology *isn't* normal for Lisbeth to walk effectually with panda eyes/bizarre brand-up. If y'all watched the second film in the original trilogy, you'd come across she reserved the theatrical makeup for special occasions. That's what we become here in the opening scene, with Foy's Lisbeth sporting a swath of white paint over her eyes equally she helps out a married woman with an abusive husband. And the mohawk only appears here and briefly towards the terminate of the picture. Fincher decided to get all 'comic book' with Lisbeth's look and created a 'heightened/hyper-reality', whereas this film is a bit more 'restrained'. No elaborate fights on escalators this time. When Lisbeth fights a guy mitt-to-manus here, information technology'south in a small enclosed area, vicious (non flashy), and she doesn't magically win.

We're now seeing the reaction from those who dismissed the part Noomi Rapace played in making the graphic symbol of Lisbeth Salander as widely recognsied as she is (or who simply don't wish to accept that the role originated with her), because they roughshod in love with the remake version, when the shoe is on the other foot. The outcry over 'their' version of Lisbeth beingness replaced is no different to those who didn't wish to encounter Noomi replaced. Yet they're acting like the US version is the ONLY version. Sorry to pause it to you...she's not. Claire Foy gives us a more than 'grounded' performance as Lisbeth, every bit she conveys the character's weaknesses/vulnerabilities, making her experience like more of a 'real' character as opposed to the comic book-similar Usa version. To those complaining about this film's 'action'...so what if in that location's action? It's not similar the remake was devoid of elaborate activity scenes. Plus, here she uses her brains for getting out of sticky situations more often than her fists.

Sverrir Gudnason might non exist as recogniseable as Daniel Craig...merely that really works in his favour. Rather than watching a non-action version of James Bond onscreen, nosotros're getting to meet a Mikael as he comes across in the books. He'due south more than or less only a regular guy, and I recall the role player portrays him believably. We but get brusque scenes betwixt him and Foy'south Salander, only their 'relationship'/friendship feels like it's already established. The remake seemed to put them together in no fourth dimension and I didn't feel that was 'earned' like in the original. Sylvia Hoeks does a lot with limited screentime besides. We don't really meet her Camilla until tardily into the flick (though we're introduced to the sisters equally children at the showtime), merely she plays the 'coldness' well, showing but hints of vulnerability.

I read the book this movie's based on/adapted from when it was first released and didn't recollect much of it. The author but wasn't able to capture what made the original three books (which I've read each of multiple times) then not bad. However, I decided to give the book some other endeavour in training for seeing this picture show. Maybe information technology's that this movie's such a 'loose' estimation of the volume, with information technology being quite a bit different, but I found the picture version much more interesting. The problem is some people who but know the United states remake are ignorant of what came earlier. They think that version is the ONLY one that exists. This is no doubt what has contributed to the IMDB rating existence so (quite unjustly) low. Claire Foy *is* the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo...whether you lot like information technology/wish to have information technology or not. Hopefully we get to run into more of her in the role. Until and then, practice yourself a favour and scout the original trilogy.
