Before you get all excited, this is not the much-hyped Hollywood version of the film that is due for release next year. This is, in fact, the Swedish version that has been subtitled in English.
For those of you who’ve been living under a rock, the best-selling book of the same name is the first in a trilogy by Swedish author Stieg Larsson. Essentially it’s a suspense-filled thriller, but one that has literally done the global rounds and taken the world by storm.
Since there are people who seem to struggle with the concept of reading subtitles, the English version is in production, but for the rest of you – fans of the book or not – this is a gripping and totally satisfactory portrayal that will keep you glued. Do yourself a favour and watch this one before Hollywood puts its own spin on the story.
Rating: 4 outta 5.
