As I haven't read any of the Stieg Larsson books I can't judge how well the adaption to screen was handled, but as a movie in it's own right, it is really, really good. Very dark and brutally upfront, which make some scenes really hard to watch, so definitely not suited for everybody.
But if you like a well constructed plot and mystery, this one stays interesting and suspenseful until the end.
In my opinion, this movie should be watched in Swedish with subtitles, as the Swedish actors are delivering a spot on performance.
