the girl who played with fire

This is the second film in the Millennium Trilogy.following the adventures of This is the second film in the millennium trilogy, following the adventures of Lizbeth Salander, as she wends her way through the Swedish underworld.

Bloomquvist is also very present in the story. He looks older, driving a Toyota Prius, wearing reading glasses, biker jacket, and still getting involved. This role is still crucial, heading up the magazine in a grueling investigation of the Scandinavian white slave trade.

Lizbeth has just returned from a year in exile, and uses her newfound wealth to fix some wrongs in the past. These include continued misdoings of her parole officer, a reunion with her father, and meeting with her brother.

Once again Sweden provides a beautiful backdrop, and enviable place to live with amazing Mercedes ambulances. At that with the crime world is like that, then I don't want to live that.

The film was only really marred by one seeing, where Lizbeth has a brush with death, and an escape that not even the Terminator would've survived.

Overall an entertaining, if violent film. I am looking forward to part three., as she went away to the Swedish underworld.
