The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2011)

Crime | Drama | Mystery

 

In an age where thrillers have become a nuisance with poor scripts and wasted acting, this movie is the modern day savior of the very nature. It runs fairly long. 2 hours and 38 minutes to be precise. But once you hit the main stream with the breathtaking starting title sequence filled with creative computer graphics and rock music, the journey from there is swift. The story up to a certain point makes no proper direction and runs in two lines. But suddenly it becomes one and the whole plot shapes up to be a monster you didn’t wish to see. The good thing is it still doesn’t stop from there. It goes on to another dimension before the climax. Nominated for the best movie in Oscar and actress (Which is strange considering its nature), there is something to see in this thriller. It’s a mix of drama, action and thrill served in one silver platter.
