The Girl Who Kicked The Hornet's Nest: Luftslottet som sprängdes (2009)

Part 3 of the Millennium Trilogy. Lisbeth [Noomi Rapace] is in the hospital and Mikael [Michael Nyqvist] is doing what he can for her case. Writing a review that talks about the film is going to completely spoil the previous two films in the trilogy. I would hope that those sensitive to spoilers would not read a review of a 3rd film in a trilogy without getting some information about the first two.

So trilogy spoilers ahead. We know about the fight between Lisbeth and her father, her half brother, and we know she tried to kill him when she was a girl because of his abuse towards her mother. What happened between the gas fire and her adulthood? Why does she have a guardian she has to check in with?

This film is all about bringing everything together. Questions get answered, and a lot of plot lines from the previous two films get resolved. Everything that you would expect and hope for from a final film in a trilogy. So why do I give the first two higher ratings? Well this film doesn't stand well on its own. It really is just bringing closure to the first two films and doesn't have its own exciting subplot or progression in the story. It makes the trilogy as a set excellent, and is the puzzle piece you need, but by itself it is over two and a half hours of closure. I wish some of the open plots from the first would have been addressed in the second films, then some of the climax from the second [the gun fight to be specific], would have been reserved for this film. It would have required that the stories been written completely different, so not a small change.

For what it is I liked it, and the two and a half hours went by fast.

Vote: 7/10
