Personal review:
So,it was actually the second time I've seen this film as I've already watched the Sweedish production so practically I knew what was going to happen.Which one was better?I think the Sweedish one.I mean the actors/actresses weren't well-known like Daniel Craig but the whole movie takes place in Sweeden so in the first production you could "feel the spirit" more.The bad thing about both films is that they last too long and at the parts where this happens there isn't something that is super exciting or that could make you want to know more,so it ends up being boring at somepoint.Especially in the American production which lasts almost three hours.It is a good movie,I can't doubt that but it would be so much better if some parts were cut off.Plus,be prepared because there are some pretty violent scenes that I'm sure you won't enjoy,but they really help to understand some reactions of the characters.
