Critic Reviews
-
Jen Chaney, Washington Post
An engrossing and classically suspenseful story
-
Jonathan F. Richards, Film.com
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is a handsome thriller, anchored by an arresting performance in the title role by Noomi Rapace.
-
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel
A chilling detective tale, a horrific sexual abuse drama and an overlong, emotional, tie-up-every-loose-end melodrama that is sure to be half an hour shorter when Hollywood remakes it without Swedish dialogue and probably without the cool Swedish edge.
-
Stephen Cole, Globe and Mail
A bracing survey course on the mystery genre set in a Scandinavian landscape as cold as a killer's kiss.
-
Peter Howell, Toronto Star
Appreciation of the film relies more on the performances than the problem-solving, and Rapace delivers a complicated and deliciously contrary performance that tattoos Lisbeth Salander straight onto the brain.
