Is The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2011) the best forgotten movie of the 2010s?

Just a great Fincher movie that is never discussed.

And that Rooney Mara transformation:

Have you seen the entire Swedish trilogy? Highly recommend it. The Fincher film was good, too. Wish they would have made all three English versions.

Great movie, it’s just a tough hang because of a couple scenes so I don’t think many people run to go rewatch it often

I loved the books. It's a shame Stieg Larrson died before his books were published. He was a damn good story teller for a socialist.

As for the movies -- I prefer Rooney Mara's portrayal as Lisbeth over Claire Foy in The Girl in the Spider's Web.

I think the soundtrack and the opening sequence get talked about a lot.

It's surprising to me that Mara's career didn't really take off after this. I don't know if she consciously took smaller artsy stuff or what, but she seemed destined for the A list and it just didn't happen.

It was good, but the Swedish version was better IMO. It was more chilling to me.

I loved the books and was so excited when I heard Fincher was doing the US version. His style fits the mood and setting of the books so well. Then when trent got involved, it was a winner.

Crushed they decided not to finish.

It was really good. Fincher’s aesthetic really worked for the material. Nailed that disturbing, sterile vibe

I liked it. I know some people crapped on it, but I honestly enjoyed watching it. Rooney Mara did a damned good job in that.

I liked the books but Larrson did not write women well at all. Lisbeth was basically a dude.
