The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest2009
In this last installment of Steig Larsson's "Dragon Tattoo Trilogy," Lisbeth Salander lies in critical condition, a bullet wound to her head, in the intensive care unit of a Swedish city hospital. She's fighting for her life in more ways than one: if and when she recovers, she'll be taken back to Stockholm to stand trial for three murders. With the help of her friend, journalist Mikael Blomkvist, she will not only have to prove her innocence, but also identify and denounce those in authority who have allowed the vulnerable, like herself, to suffer abuse and violence. And, on her own, she will plot revenge against the man who tried to kill her, and the corrupt government institutions that very nearly destroyed her life.

I give this 5 stars in part for the overall excellence of all 3 of these long films and the continuity of acting, plot and staging. Admittedly this final one was a little bit of a head scratcher as far as the story line but it all came together very well. Kudos to the cast which were all better than just able and that included a very pregnant lawyer.

a excellent choice in film fare action packed and very well acted by all parties not a dull moment and good scenery of Sweden throughout a sequel that works as there was a first movie that this had before it just the girl with the dragon tatoo..this is a great choice for a movie unique as well as entertaining!!!!!
Fantastic - shows how clever the heroine is. Plays weak to fool her enemies when really she's very strong
