The Girl Who Kicked the
Hornets' Nest (2009)
Based on the novel of
the same name this film from director Daniel Alfredson stars Noomi
Rapace and Micahel Nyqvist. Picking up where the last film left off
our heroine is in hospital and facing trial while the reporters at
the millennium magazine seek to defend her.
Much like the second
film in the series this film does not reach the heights of the first
film but does work pretty well as a thriller. The plot does decent
into conspiracy theory land but manages to hold a fair amount of
tension even when the plot gets a little out there. Having the female
protagonist sidelined for most of the film is not the greatest part
of the story and the ending seems to indicate that despite three
films she has not really changed.
4/5
