disappointing movie....

Rating: 5/10 (7 March 2012)

first of all i have to say that i read the book one week earlier than watching the movie. i can't say it is a badly written book, but the plot seemed to be simple, even if the intention was to complicate it.after all, the clues to the case were found through some photos and newspaper articles.
secondly, the movie is an unfortunate combination of sequences taken out of the book. despite the fact that it is lengthy enough,the characters were nearly at all developed. for example in the book Cecilia Vanger, Martin Vanger, Dirk Frode are much more stronger characters than in the movie, where they play easily forgettable roles.
and lastly, the ending of the movie is simply disappointing compared to the book. until i read about the mysterious escape of Harriett in Australia, i thought it is an average detective novel, but this element really surprised me by its originality. it's a pity the movie hasn't reproduced it.
