It's not too bad so far.
But in movie news, I saw the American version of the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo last Sunday.
It was awesome. Like I said in my earlier post, I was worried they would ruin the movie, since the American version is a remake.
There was some random arty something or other in the beginning credits of the movie, which was weird, but tolerable.
The rest of the movie was just... it was great. It was on par with the Swedish movie, if not slightly better than it.
One of the reasons I think this version of this movie was better, for the North American audience at least, because from what I understand Swedish humor is very dry humor. This movie had the type of humor that is typical of American movies. Although it did keep some of that dry humor.

Daniel Craig also plays Blomkvist very well. I wasn't too sure about how he would work in this role; not because of his acting skills but because I couldn't reconcile his appearance with the one the books describe of him.
While there were some changes to this version of the movie, they weren't too bad, not did they alter the story line in an unforgivable way.
I would suggest this movie to mystery lovers, as long as they don't mind violence, sexual content, rape and vulgar language.
Nighty night all!
