Much Too Soon for a Remake

Rating: 7/10 (17 May 2012)

This is a Remake of a 2009 Film and therein lies the Curiosity. The Original Film was Excellent and well thought of by Cinema Fans and Lovers of the Book Trilogy.
Fincher's Remake comes much Too Soon to Avoid Microscopic Comparisons, especially since the Original was so Well Done. It can't help but Beg the Question...WHY?
It is the kind of Style and Subject the Director Excels and Flourishes (Se7en), but He might have Gone Elsewhere for Inspiration and Exploration.
This one is Disturbing and Fittingly Frightening and Fascinationg at times with a Good Cast and Exceptional Photography and Score, but, after all, You have to ask WHY So Soon?
