From what i've heard, that's the only part worth watching anyway.
Didn't he go to a mental institution for a brief period as part of a plea bargain agreement, but the judge didn't want to follow through with whatever was agreed upon? This does not dismiss the fact that he fled the country, but I think his councel provided some bad advice and suggested that he should.creep wrote:

It's not really surprising since the American justice system is rooted in a punitive model and approaches crime that way.
so who did a worse thing?
woody allen or polanski?

I saw this movie last weekend and it really kicked ass. If you like Alien or Event Horizon, you will also love this. Scary and brutal!

which version of the movie, the original one or the US remake (i dunno how long the remake has been out - or if it's still in production so that might be a dumb question)?ellis wrote:I saw Girl w/ the Dragon Tattoo about a week ago. There's a few disturbing scenes but the movie is really good.
I've never read the book or any of the Millennium series.
The Hollywood remake directed by David Fincher (The Game, Se7en, Social Network, etc) has been out since just before Christmas and badly flopped at the box office. I didn't even get a chance to see it as it's already out of most theaters. It's a big question mark if the succeeding two movies will now be remade or not.nausearockpig wrote:which version of the movie, the original one or the US remake (i dunno how long the remake has been out - or if it's still in production so that might be a dumb question)?ellis wrote:I saw Girl w/ the Dragon Tattoo about a week ago.

my wife loved those movies so I bought her the books
yeah the swedish actor they cast for Blomquist was a surprise, for sure. in the book he was good looking and a ladyies man. that was actually a fairly big thing about his character which was not conveyed by that swedish actor. i read the books first and was not that impressed with the movie. it started off pretty slow but it did pick up, and they did do a good job with that scene with the rapist. the actor they cast as Lisbeth was very good I thought. only thing, she was a little too muscular. in the book you get the impression she is small and petite, but can kick ass.perkana wrote:oh fuck I hope so...I watched the first Swedish movie before reading the book and I didn't understand some bits. Just by watching the trailer I really think the US remake is better (looks like they covered more details) and finally they picked someone who could play Blomqvist. No offense, the Swedish actor looks like he's very famous and a good one, but he just didn't satisfy me.
US version. It was close to 3 hrs long.nausearockpig wrote:which version of the movie, the original one or the US remake (i dunno how long the remake has been out - or if it's still in production so that might be a dumb question)?ellis wrote:I saw Girl w/ the Dragon Tattoo about a week ago.

That's what I thought too!! He wasn't a ladiesman at all, with that mole...Yup, movie was very slow at first. Well for Swedish standards, I think she was quite petite. I don't know if you've seen the second one but that one was way too boring for me. Fell asleep both times I watched it. The last one was a bit better. Read on Vanity Fair that Larsson's wife/partner wasn't happy about the movies either.Artemis wrote:yeah the swedish actor they cast for Blomquist was a surprise, for sure. in the book he was good looking and a ladyies man. that was actually a fairly big thing about his character which was not conveyed by that swedish actor. i read the books first and was not that impressed with the movie. it started off pretty slow but it did pick up, and they did do a good job with that scene with the rapist. the actor they cast as Lisbeth was very good I thought. only thing, she was a little too muscular. in the book you get the impression she is small and petite, but can kick ass.perkana wrote:oh fuck I hope so...I watched the first Swedish movie before reading the book and I didn't understand some bits.

what does that mean?! You think Sweden is full off testosterone fueled muscular women that arm wrestle all day long? It isn't Sweden probably has the highest concentration of really beautiful women of any country in the world.Matz wrote:perkana wrote:Well for Swedish standards, I think she was quite petite.

Your comments reminded me of portions of two reviews I read:ant wrote:Finally got around to seeing 'Tree of Life'. Not a fan. Too much 2001 rip off and poorly done. When that dinosaur was nice to the weaker one I was laughing. Cut back to Sean Penn sulking on an elevator. I love surrealism in all forms but this was nonsense. Should've just stuck with the 50's storyline.
Mr. Malick might have been well advised to leave out the dinosaurs and the trip to the afterlife and given us a delicate chronicle of a young man’s struggle with his father and himself, set against a backdrop of rapid social change.
Overall, both reviewers find the film praiseworthy (although one reviewer doesn't so much praise the film as he does the filmmaker's ambition).At the premiere of Terrence Malick's The Tree of Life, which I reviewed at the Cannes film festival in May, the movie's final moments were almost drowned out by the booing, jeering and giggling in the auditorium, a response widely developed into a note of balanced and wearily tolerant dismissal in print. People would repeatedly reproach me for my own laudatory notice; this film, they said, was pretentious, boring and – most culpably of all – Christian. Didn't I realise, they asked, that Malick was a Christian?
