Viewing Notes

I LOVED The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo and immediately after watching it, I sought out The Girl Who Played With Fire. Didn’t like it nearly as much at the time, but I chalk that up to not having read the books yet and being a bit tired when I watched it. It’s definitely a movie that demands your attention because it has a fairly intricate plot that requires you to follow along closely.

Happy to say I enjoyed it a lot more on the second time through. Now I need to see the final movie.
