About this movie

DRAGON TATTOO TRILOGY: EXTENDED EDITION contains more than two hours of additional footage not seen in the theatrical versions of the original Swedish films (THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO, THE GIRL WHO PLAYED WITH FIRE and THE GIRL WHO KICKED THE HORNET'S NEST). Amassing a total of 9 hours of story content and presented in 6 parts, this complete version of the international hit series restores notable characters and subplots from Stieg Larsson's best-selling novels, most significantly in the portrayal of Erika Berger (Lena Endre), the editor of MILLENNIUM magazine as well as Mikael Blomkvist's friend and occasional lover. Starring Noomi Rapace and Michael Nyqvist, the DRAGON TATTOO TRILOGY: EXTENDED EDITION is the quintessential set for lovers of the books and a must-have for fans of the film trilogy.

Ratings and reviews

Not only outstanding actors but casting well written well portrayed well-developed characters, and an in-depth insight into each character. Even the ending was spectacular. I must say the United States version of this not only pales in comparison but pales in every way. This version along with the previous two movies in the series are just brilliant and a must see for all.

Acting is off the charts. Plausibility is old news, but creating this trilogy is a masterpiece. Sadly, ugly is still happening, and thinks it can still hide.

Worlds apart from the weaksauce U.S. remake, this (and its two other acts) are the only proper cinematic realizations of this epic. Now let me buy it, Google! :(
